Muḥammad ʿAbduh (1849 – 11 July 1905) (also spelled Mohammed Abduh, Arabic: محمد عبده) was an Egyptian Islamic scholar,^[19] judge,^[19] and Grand Mufti of Egypt.^[1]^[2]^[29]^[30] He was a central figure of the Arab Nahḍa and Islamic Modernism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.^[5]^[29]

He began teaching advanced students esoteric Islamic texts at Al-Azhar University while he was still studying there.^[29] From 1877, with the status of ʿālim, he taught logic, theology, ethics, and politics.^[29] He was also made a professor of history at Dar al-ʿUlūm the following year, and of Arabic language and literature at Madrasat al-Alsun.^[29] ʿAbduh was a champion of the press and wrote prolifically in Al-Manār and Al-Ahram. He was made editor of Al-Waqa'i' al-Misriyya in 1880.^[29] He also authored Risālat at-Tawḥīd (Arabic: رسالة التوحيد; "The Theology of Unity")^[19] and a commentary on the Quran.^[4] He briefly published the pan-Islamist anti-colonial newspaper al-ʿUrwa al-Wuthqā alongside his mentor Jamāl ad-Dīn al-Afghānī.^[31]

ʿAbduh joined Freemasonry and subscribed to various Masonic lodges alongside his mentor al-Afghānī and his other pupils,^[19]^[32] but eventually left the secret society in his later years.^[33]^[34] He was appointed as a judge in the Courts of First Instance of the Native Tribunals in 1888, a consultative member of the Court of Appeal in 1899, and he was appointed muftī l-diyār al-miṣriyya [ar] in 1899.^[29]
