Abu Ibrahim al-Hashimi al-Qurashi (born 1 or 5 October 1976) was an important leader of a group called the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL). He led the group from 2019 until his death in 2022.

His real name was Amir Mohammed Abdul Rahman al-Mawli al-Salbi. He became the leader after the previous leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, died. A special council chose him for this role on October 31, 2019.

The United States government offered a reward of up to $10 million for information about him. This reward was part of a program called Rewards for Justice Program.

On February 3, 2022, he died during an operation by the United States Military in Syria.
