Mahmoud Sami Al Baroudi (Arabic: ; June 11, 1839 December 11, 1904) was a significant Egyptian political figure, and a prominent poet. He served as 5th Prime Minister of Egypt from 4 February, 1882 until 26 May, 1882. He was known as rab alseif wel qalam ("lord of sword and pen"). His father belonged to an Ottoman-Egyptian family while his mother was a Greek woman who converted to Islam upon marrying his father. Mohamed Tewfik Pasha (Arabic: Muammad Tawfq Bsh; April 30 or 15 November 1852 7 January 1892), also known as Tawfiq of Egypt, was khedive of Egypt and the Sudan between 1879 and 1892 and the sixth ruler from the Muhammad Ali Dynasty. He inherited a state suffering under the financial and political mismanagement of his predecessor Ismail. Disaffection in the Egyptian army, as well as Anglo-French control of the state in the 1880s, culminated in the anti-foreign Urabi revolt. Tewfik also took interest in matters concerning irrigation, education, and justice; as well as selling his father's female slaves and closing the court's harem quarters.
