Mustafa Ahmed Muhammad Uthman Abu al-Yazid (مصطفى احمد محمد عثمان أبواليزيد), better known as al-Masri (المصري = the Egyptian) or Saeed al-Masri (سعيد المصري), (December 17, 1955 – May 31, 2010) was an Egyptian who was alleged to have acted as the financial chief for al-Qaeda.

Many have confused him with Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh who used the same alias;

He was initially arrested among hundreds of others following the assassination of Anwar Sadat in 1981.

As of 1991, al-Masri was working as the financial chief for al-Qaeda, running the Mektabh al-Muhassiba (accounting office) in Peshawar. He was alleged to have appointed Ibrahim al-Qosi as his deputy to handle money destined for NGO projects.

al-Masri set up a financial office on McNimr Street in Khartoum on June 9, 1993, from where he managed al-Qaeda’s payroll.
