Cenaze Hasan Pasha (Adyghe: Хьэсэн-Пащэ "Джэназэ"; also known as Meyyit Hasan Pasha or Kethüda Hasan Pasha; died 1810) was a short-term Ottoman grand vizier in 1789. His epithet Cenaze (or Meyyit) means "corpse" because he was ill when appointed to the post.

He was instrumental in putting down the Orlov revolt and was successful during the Austro-Turkish War of 1788–1791.[1] Due to his previous military success, he was promoted to Grand Vizier in 1789 and led Ottoman troops during the Russo-Turkish War of 1787–1792.[1] However, he was notably defeated by Alexander Suvorov at the Battle of Rymnik, despite outnumbering the Russian general's forces greatly.
