but moved to Alexandria
for high school.immediately after his

him to become the editor of the Major General Al-San

Ibrahim
Pasha
Ibrahim
Pasha (1789 – November 10, 1848) was the eldest son
of Muhammad
Ali, the Wāli and
unrecognised Khedive of Egypt and
Sudan. He served
as a general in the Egyptian army that his father established
during his reign, taking his first command of Egyptian forces was
when he was merely a teenager. In the final year of his life, he
succeeded his still living father as ruler of Egypt and Sudan, due
to the latter´s ill health. His rule also extended over the other
dominions that his father had brought under Egyptian rule,
namely Syria, Hejaz, Morea, Thasos,
and Crete. Ibrahim
pre-deceased his father, dying 10 November 1848, only four months
after acceding to the throne. Upon his father´s death the following
year, the Egyptian throne passed to Ibrahim´s nephew (Muhammad
Ali´s second oldest son), Abbas.
Ibrahim
remains one of the most celebrated members of the
Muhammad Ali
Dynasty, particularly for his impressive
military victories, including several crushing defeats of
the Ottoman
Empire. Among Egyptian historians, he, along
with his father, Muhammad Ali, his son, Ismail the
Magnificent, and his
great-grandson Abbas II, is held in
far higher esteem than other rulers from the dynasty, who were
largely viewed as indolent and corrupt. Today, a statue of Ibrahim
occupies a prominent position in Egypt´s capital,
Cairo.
