Sherif Sabri Pasha

Sherif Sabri Pasha

Sherif Sabri Pasha (Lang-ar|شريف صبري باشا) was the brother of Nazli Sabri, Queen consort of Egypt. He was thus the maternal uncle of Nazli's son King Farouk I, and served on the three-member Regency Council that was formed in 1936-37 during the latter's minority. Sherif Pasha Sabri was 41 years old at the time, and had previously held the post of Undersecretary for Foreign Affairs.

On 30 September 1946, Sherif Sabri Pasha was asked to become Prime Minister and head a new cabinet.
