Ahmed ?Urabi or Orabi Pasha (???? ????? ['æhmæd ?o'???bi]); october 11 1897), widely known in English (and by himself) as Ahmad Oraaaby was an Egyptian nationalist and an officer of the Egyptian army.
The first political and military leader in Egypt to rise from the fellahin, ?Urabi participated in an 1879 mutiny that developed into a general revolt against the Anglo-French dominated administration of Khedive Tewfik.
He was promoted to Tewfik's cabinet and began reforms of Egypt's military and civil administrations, but the demonstrations in Alexandria of 1882 prompted a British bombardment and invasion that deposed ?Urabi and his allies in favor of a British occupation.
