Fariba Rezayee (Persian: فریبا رضایی) (born September 3 1985) is an Afghan judoka who is perhaps best known as one of the first two women athletes from Afghanistan to compete in the Summer Olympics. Afghanistan was banned from the Olympics in 1999 due to its discrimination against women under Taliban rule as well as its prohibition of sports of any kind and thus missed out on the Sydney Olympics of the year 2000.
