St. Mother Irini (Coptic: ⲧⲉⲛⲙⲁⲩ Ⲓⲣⲏⲛⲏ, lit. ''Tenmav (Coptic for "Our Mother") Irene''; Arabic: امنا ايريني, lit. ''Umina (Our Mother in Arabic) Irini''; 9 February 1936 Girga – 31 October 2006 Cairo) was the Coptic Abbess of the St. Philopateer Mercurius’ (Abu Sefein, "of the two swords") Convent in Old Cairo, Egypt and an influential figure in the Coptic Christian community of Egypt.

Tamav was consecrated as the head of the convent on 15 October 1962 (Babah 5th 1679 according to the Coptic calendar). According to some accounts, Tamav was visited by, and communicated with, St. Philopatyr Mercurius and St. Anthony the Great. Tamav is credited with numerous miracles, while alive and after her death. At least six of her books have been translated in English. [citation needed]
