Hussein Sabri Pasha (Arabic: حسين صبري باشا) was an influential figure who served as the governor of Alexandria from 1925 until 1937 and was the brother of Queen Nazli.

During this period, the Egyptian football team participated in the World Cup in Italy in 1934, and in the Berlin Olympics in Germany in 1936.

[9][10] During one of Hussein Sabri's visits to his sister Queen Nazli, She told him that she was afraid of the bad influence that the courtiers around her son Farouk I, could have on him, and that they might turn him against Wafd Party.

[9][11] Nazli asked her brother, who had relations with leaders of Wafd Party, to tell them on her behalf, to take care of Farouk and keep the old courtiers away from him.

Subsequently, Abdel Hamid informed Ahmed Maher and Mustafa el-Nahas Pasha about Queen Nazli's request.
