Abu Bakr Khairat (10 April 1910 – 1963) (Arabic: أبو بكر خيرت); also spelled Abu Bakr Khayrat) was an Egyptian composer of classical music, part of that nation's first generation of such composers.
He had a successful career in architecture, designing the Academy of Arts complex and the Sayed Darwish Concert Hall.
His compositions are written in a romantic idiom, combining Egyptian traditional elements with Western music.
He sometimes drew on melodies by the early 20th-century Egyptian composer Sayed Darwish.
