Editing Mustafa I (section)

==Deposition and last years==
Political instability was generated by conflict between the Janissaries and the [[sipahis]] (Ottoman cavalry), followed by the [[Abaza rebellion]], which occurred when the governor-general of [[Erzurum]], [[Abaza Mehmed Pasha]], decided to march on Istanbul to avenge the murder of Osman II. The regime tried to end the conflict by executing Kara Davud Pasha, but Abaza Mehmed continued his advance. Clerics and [[Kemankeş Kara Ali Pasha]] prevailed upon Mustafa's mother to allow the deposition of her son. She agreed, on the condition that Mustafa's life would be spared.<ref name="Börekçi, Mustafa I, p.409"/><ref>{{EI2|volume=7|last=Kramers|first=J.H.|authorlink=J.H.
