Mehmed Emin Rauf Pasha (1780–1860) was an Ottoman industrialist and statesman, who was
Abdülmecit I (reign 1839–1861) during the Tanzimat
period.
According to Shaw and Shaw, Mehmed Emin Rauf Pasha and his predecessor,
Mustafa Reşit Pasha
, "acted mainly as mediators" for Mahmud II, "attempting to balance conflicting interests while participating in the factional activities and disputes endemic in Ottoman governmental life."
