Adilşah was the consort of Mustafa III. She was given the title of 'Third Consort'.[1] On 15 December 1765, she gave birth to her first child a daughter, Beyhan Sultan in the Topkapı Palace.[2][3] Two years later, on 14 June 1768 she gave birth to her second child a daughter, Hatice Sultan in the Topkapı Palace.[2][4] After the death of Mustafa in 1774, she and her daughters settled in the Old Palace.[3]

She also devoted three large farms and a plot of trees and buildings to constitute the income of the foundation. In the zeyl foundation, dated 1797, there are provisions regarding the reorganization of the foundation's trustees.[5]
