Aboul-Qacem Echebbi (Arabic: أبو القاسم الشابي, Abūl-Qāsim aš-Šhābbī; 24 February 1909 – 9 October 1934) was a Tunisian poet. He is probably best known for writing the final two verses of the current national anthem of Tunisia, "Ḥumāt al-Ḥimā", which was originally written by the Egyptian poet Mustafa Sadik el-Rafii.
