Sa'id Pasha al-Mufti (Arabic: سعيد المفتي; Adyghe: Хьэбжьокъуэ Сайд; 26 June 1898 – 25 March 1989) was a Jordanian politician and diplomat who served as the 9th Prime Minister of Jordan, a position he served three terms in between 14 April 1950 and 1 July 1956.
Al-Mufti lived in Jabal Amman, an affluent area in Jordan's capital of Amman; his house became known for its unique architecture and was later dubbed Al-Mufti House.
He was of Circassian origin and was an independent politician, serving in several terms as interior minister (1944–1945, 1948–1950, 1951–1953 and 1957). He was Minister of Finance in 1945, and served as the President of the Senate of Jordan from December 1956 to July 1963 and from November 1965 to November 1974.
A street in the Sweifieh area of Amman was named after him in his honor, where the Embassy of Bosnia and Herzegovina is located.
