Harem politics played a key role in the Islamic States. A sultan's wives and concubines were not above violence in making sure their sons, as opposed to one of the other women's sons, would assume the throne. When a prince became sultan, he would sometimes kill all of his siblings, in an effort to protect his throne. The princes were kept from acquiring any power by being denied an education. The problem was that if the sultan died without an heir, the inheritance would automatically to go to one of the half-brothers, who had deliberately been denied the education and skills needed to rule the countries.
The Harem politics played a huge role in the decline of the Ottoman Empire. When the oldest prince becomes the sultan, he would either kill all of his siblings, or imprison them in the palace, and they were given no education. So if that sultan dies without an offspring, one of his brothers would become the sultan, but because he was imprisoned, he wouldn't know anything, and may even be illiterate.

Firstly, the question should be narrowed. While the Ottoman Empire declined after the death of Suleiman I, the Safavid Empire in Persia was only beginning to rise and the Mughal Empire in India had not even begun to form.As for the reason for the Ottoman Empire's decline, Suleiman I was the last Ottoman Emperor to care more about the state than the harem where he could indulge in pleasures of the flesh.
