Izz al-Din Aybak () (epithet: al-Malik al-Muʕizz ʕizz ad-Dīn ʔaybak (al-Jāšankīr) at-Turkumāniyy aṣ-Ṣāliḥiyy, ) was the first of the Mamluk sultans of Egypt in the Turkic Bahri line. He ruled from 1250 until his death in 1257.
==Origin and early career== thumb|250px|Ayyubid dominion before Mamluks took power in Egypt. Aybak (Turkic: ay, moon; bak, commander) was an Emir/commander of Turkic origin who served with other Turkmens in the court of the Ayyubid sultan as-Salih Ayyub and therefore was known among the Bahri Mamluks as Aybak al-Turkmani. He raised to the position of Emir (commander) and worked as a Jashnkir (taster of the sultan's food and drink, or cupbearer) and used the rank of a Khawanja (Sultan's accountant).
