Adel Mohammed Abdel Magid Abdel Bari (Arabic: عادل محمد عبد المجيد عبد الباري; born 24 June 1960) is an Egyptian terrorist.

He was, together with fellow Egyptian citizen Ibrahim Hussein Abdel Hadi Eidarous until the latter's death, in custody in the United Kingdom from 1999,[2] fighting extradition to the United States, where they were wanted in connection with the 1998 United States embassy bombings in East Africa.[3] Both men were extradited to the United States in October 2012.[4] He pleaded guilty in 2014 and was sentenced to 25 years in prison but was released after only 5 years due to time served and medical grounds, and then repatriated to the UK.

His son, Abdel-Majed Abdel Bary, was radicalised and joined ISIS.
