Muhammad Ali Al-Abed (Arabic: محمد علي العابد‎ / ALA-LC: Muḥammad ‘Alī Al-‘Ābed; 1867–1939) was appointed the first president of Syria (from 11 June 1932 until 21 December 1936) as a nominee of the nationalist Syrian parliament in Damascus after the country received partial recognition of sovereignty from France. France agreed to recognize Syria as a nation under intense nationalist pressure but did not withdraw its troops completely until 1946.
