How did Suleiman's selection of a successor eventually spell disaster for the ottoman empire?

Suleiman the Magnificent's selection of his son Selim II as successor marked a shift in leadership that contributed to the decline of the Ottoman Empire. Unlike his father, Selim lacked the military and administrative skills necessary to effectively govern, leading to weakened central authority and increased corruption. His reign also saw the empire's military prowess diminish and internal strife grow, setting the stage for further fragmentation and challenges that would ultimately escalate into the empire's decline. This decision highlighted the dangers of dynastic succession without meritocratic considerations, undermining the stability Suleiman had established.
