Early life and education

Ibrahim was born in Alexandria in 1917.^[1]^[2] He graduated from the Egyptian Air Academy in 1927.^[2]^[3]

Free Officers Movement

Ibrahim was among five military officers who formed the first cell of the Free Officers movement in July or September 1949.^[4]^[5] Although it is argued that Ibrahim along with other officers was a member of the Muslim Brotherhood's special unit from 1944 to 1945,^[4]^[5] there is another report stating that Ibrahim was part of the group called Young Egypt.^[3] In addition, Ibrahim was one of the nine-member leadership group of the Free Officers movement.^[1] The movement led the 1952 Revolution.^[6] Then Ibrahim became a member of the 14-member Revolution Command Council that was charged with the running of Egypt following the success of the revolution.^[1]

Career

Ibrahim participated in the Palestinian war in 1948.^[2] In 1952 he served as an Air Force group captain.^[1] In 1954 he led the group who expelled President Mohamed Naguib from Abdeen Palace.^[1] He was one of the three judges, who tried the members of the Muslim Brotherhood after their attempted assassination attack against President Gamal Abdel Nasser in 1954.^[7] The other judges were Anwar Sadat and Abdel Latif Boghdadi.^[7]

Ibrahim was also appointed minister for presidential affairs in 1954.^[3] Two years later, in 1956, he was named the head of the Egyptian economy agency.^[3] After dealing with business for a while, in February 1964, he was appointed as one of seven vice deputies of President Nasser.^[3] Ibrahim joined the Arab Socialist Union in 1962 when the party was established and was one of the sub-secretaries for its finance and commerce department.^[8] The other sub-secretary of the department was Abdul Munim Qaysuni, an economist.^[8] Ibrahim's tenure as vice deputy ended in 1966 when Nasser asked him to end his extramarital relationship, and Ibrahim continued business activities.^[3]

Later years and death

In 1975, Ibrahim gave a series of interviews to Egyptian author Sami Gohar which were published as a book titled The Silents Speak: Abdelnasser and the Massacre of the Muslim Brotherhood.^[2] In the book Ibrahim harshly criticized Gamal Abdel Nasser.^[2] He died in 1990.^[1]
