Overview

 

Summary

Efêndi ou effendi é um título de nobreza utilizado em diversos países do Oriente Médio, equivalente a senhor ou mestre. É um título de respeito ou cortesia usado de maneira análoga ao Sir inglês na Turquia desde o período otomano; tradicionalmente segue-se ao nome pessoal, e costuma ser empregado com membros de profissões cultas e funcionários do governo que não tinham cargos elevados. Também pode indicar um cargo definido, como Hekim efendi, o principal médico a serviço de um sultão. More information...

    • Sultan is an Islamic title, with several historical meanings. Originally it was an Arabic language abstract noun meaning "strength", "authority", or "rulership", derived from the masdar سلطة sulṭah, meaning "authority" or "power". Later, it came to be used as the title of certain Muslim rulers who claimed almost full sovereignty in practical terms (i.e.

    • Emir, ("commander" or "general", also "prince"; also transliterated as amir, aamir or ameer) is a high title of nobility or office, used throughout the Arab World, as well as historically in 19th-century Afghanistan and in the medieval Muslim world. Emirs are usually considered high-ranking sheikhs, but in monarchical states the term is also used for princes, with "Emirate" being analogous to principality in this sense.

    • Khan is an originally Central Asian title for a sovereign or military ruler, first used by medieval Altaic-speaking nomadic tribes living to the north of China. 'Khan' is first seen as a title in the Xianbei confederation for their chief between 283–289. The probably proto-Mongolian Rourans were the first people who used the titles Khagan and Khan for their emperors, replacing the Chanyu of the Xiongnu, whom Grousset and others assume to be Turkic.

    • A vizier is a high-ranking political (and sometimes religious) advisor or minister, often to an Ottoman Empire's or Persian Empire's monarchs such as Shah and Shahenshah. In Persian Empire the viziers were the ministers of the king. The word originally taken from middle Persian (Pahlavi) and literally means "arbitrator and judge". Also, it sometimes refers to ministers and advisors of the Muslim's caliph, or sultan.
    • Sardar is a title of Persian origin, used for military or political leaders. The word's cognate in Persian, Sardâr, means commander. Literally sar means "head" while dâr means "holder" in Persian. Thus, the term Sardar may also mean a military or political leader, comparable to the English chieftain. In Pakistan, the leaders of Balochi, Kashmiri, Pashtun, Punjabi, Seraiki, Sindhi tribes and clans have the title Sardar.
    • Padishah, Padshah, Padeshah, Badishah or Badshah is a superlative royal title, composed of the Persian pād "master" and the widespread shāh "king", which was adopted by several monarchs claiming the highest rank, roughly equivalent to the ancient Persian notion of "The Great" or "Great King", and later adopted by post-Achaemenid and Christian Emperors. The Sanskrit kshatrapati is a near-cognate. The word Padshah later evolved to the Turkishized word Pasha.
    • Khatun is a female title of nobility and alternative to male "khan" prominently used in the First Turkish Empire and in the subsequent Mongol Empire. It is equivalent to "queen" or "empress" approximately. Although the title gained prominence among the Turko-Mongol tribes of Inner Asia, it is - like the titles Tarkhan, Beg and Yabghu - not of Altaic, but of Indo-European (in this case Middle Iranian) Sogdian origin.
    • An akhoond (akhund or akhwand) is a Persian name for a Muslim cleric, common in Iran and Azerbaijan. The Chinese word for imam,, used in particular by the Hui people, also derives from this term.

    • Wāli or vali (from Arabic والٍ wālin) is an administrative title that was used during the Ottoman Empire to designate governors of administrative divisions. It is still in use in some Muslim countries. The division which a Wāli governs is called wilayah.
