Quick Summary

Muḥammad Mahmūd Pasha was an Egyptian politician who served as prime minister. He was a member of the Liberal Constitutionalist Party and held the premiership in 1928, during a period when the constitution was suspended and Egypt was governed by decree. His tenure as prime minister was marked by political instability and power struggles between the king, the Wafd party, and the British.1

Mahmūd Pasha's government was formed after the dismissal of Muṣṭafā al-Naḥḥās Pasha. Despite his efforts, he was unable to overcome opposition, particularly from the Wafd party, which led Britain to push for a return to constitutional government. The political landscape of Egypt during this interwar period was characterized by a continuous contest for power and influence among these key players.1
