Muhammad Al-Fatih was born on 27th Rajab, 835 A.H., 30th
March, 1432. He was brought up under the supervision of his father,
Sultan Murad II, the seventh Ottoman Sultan. His father prepared and
trained him to shoulder the responsibilities of the position of a
Sultan. Muhammad Al-Fatih memorized all the Quran, learnt the Prophetic
narrations, Islamic jurisprudence, mathematics, astronomy and the skills
required for war.
He also learnt Arabic, Persian, Latin and Greek languages. He joined his father in his battles and conquests.
His father appointed him as a ruler of a small emirate so that he could receive practical training
on administering state affairs under the supervision of some of the top
scholars of that time. This matter influenced the character of the
young prince and tinted his personality with Islamic morals and manners.
Shaykh
Aaq Shamsd-Deen, one of the scholars who supervised the upbringing and
education of Muhammad Al-Faatih, managed to inculcate in his heart the
spirit of Jihaad and the desire to be a person with high ambition.
The Shaykh also told Muhammad Al-Faatih
that he may be the one referred to in the Prophetic narration mentioned
above. All this shaped the character of Muhammad Al-Faatih. He was
devoted to Jihaad, highly ambitious, widely cultured, and had deep
knowledge of the skills of war and combat.
