Ali Bey Al-Kabir

Mamluk leader of Egypt

1728 CE to 1773 CE

Ali Bey Al-Kabir (1728 — 8 May 1773) is a Mamluk leader of Egypt from 1760 to 1772.

Originally a Mamluk soldier, he rises to prominence in 1768 when he rebels against his Ottoman rulers, making Egypt independent.

The insubordination of his most trusted general, Abu al-Dhahab, leads to Ali Bey's exile, then death outside the walls of Cairo.
