Nahhas Pasha, Mustafa al- (b. 15 June 1879, d. 23 Aug. 1965). Premier of Egypt 1928, 1930, 1936–7, 1942–4, 1950–2 Born in Samanud, he became a lawyer and co- founded the
Wafd Party, becoming its leader upon the death of
Saghlul Sa'd in 1927. As Premier, he negotiated the Anglo- Egyptian treaty of 1936, in which the British recognized Egyptian autonomy while maintaining a military presence in the country. During the war, he initiated a number of social reforms, though he is best remembered for his part in the creation of the
Arab League in 1944. In his last period in office, he demanded that the British forces leave the country and hand over Sudan to Egyptian rule. His inability to control the popular nationalist passions he had thus aroused caused his own downfall, and led to
Neguib's and
Nasser's coup d'état.
