Kara Davud Pasha, also known as simply Davud Pasha or as Hain Davud Pasha ("Davud Pasha the Traitor"), was an Ottoman statesman who became briefly Grand Vizier of the Ottoman Empire in 1622, during the reign of his brother-in-law Mustafa I.^[1]

His first position was of Kethüda under Mehmet III (1595-1603) then he was named Kapıcıbaşı under Ahmed I (1603-1617). He became Kapudan Pasha for a brief time during the first reign of Mustafa I (1617-1618).^[1]He was appointed Beylerbey of Rumelia and shortly afterwards vizier.^[1]

He was Grand Vizier on 20 May 1622 through the influence of Mustafa's mother, his own mother-in-law. His intent was to enthrone one of his sons or future sons having with Mehmed III's daughter, Şah. He carried out the execution of Osman II, cutting off his ear as proof to give to Halime that Osman was dead.^[1] However, he was dismissed on 13 June 1622, and was tortured until his death because he executed Osman II without the confirmation of the Sultan (Mustafa). The supposed reason of Davud'execution was Halime's fear of the riots he faced due to the execution of Osman, given that he had been inhumanly executed by Davud.
