The Abaza family (Arabic: الأسرة الأباظية) is an Egyptian family of maternal Circassian origin. They have had an influence in the late 18th century to modern times. They are believed to have a net worth of over US$800 million. It is known for having produced a large number of politicians under the Muhammad Ali dynasty from the 19th to the mid-20th century. While no individual Abaza has been the ruler or president of Egypt, some Egyptian media have referred to them as one of the "families that rule the country", and as "Egypt's oldest parliamentary dynasty".
