Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Ahmad ibn Ridwan (died 1607) better known as Ahmad Pasha was the governor of the Vilayet of Damascus in the early 17th century. Before that, he was governor of the Sanjak of Gaza, a subprovince of Damascus under the Ottoman Empire. Ahmad Pasha was the son of Ridwan ibn Mustafa Pasha who founded the Ridwan dynasty which governed southern Palestine for nearly two centuries. Ahmad acquired the governorship of Sanjak Gaza in 1585 following the death of Ridwan Pasha in Anatolia. Ahmad chose Gaza to be the center of his Ridwan dynasty. He continued his relatively autonomous rule of the district which at times included Jerusalem and Nablus in central Palestine until 1605. During this period, he was also given the honorary role of amir al-hajj by the Ottoman state. Arab biographer Muhammad Muhibbi described Ahmad Pasha as a "courageous" and "brilliant" man with a great understanding of history and science. Poets of the time wrote songs praising his knowledge. During his rule as Gaza's governor, the city became a cultural center.
