Mahmoud Abdel Moneim Abdel Hamid Soliman (Arabic: محمود عبد المنعم عبد الحميد سليمان; born 13 April 1994), commonly known as Mahmoud Kahraba (Arabic: محمود كهربا) or simply Kahraba (Arabic: كهربا), is an Egyptian professional footballer who plays for Egyptian Premier League club ENPPI and the Egypt national team.

After beginning his career as a youth player with Al Ahly, he made his professional debut in the Egyptian Premier League with ENPPI in 2011. He joined Swiss Super League side FC Luzern on a season-long loan deal in 2013 but left the club in March 2014 after his contract was terminated with Luzern citing inappropriate behaviour. He returned to Switzerland the following season for a six-month loan spell with Grasshopper.

After returning to Egypt, he joined Zamalek where he helped the club to win the Egypt Cup in his first season. He joined Saudi Professional League side Al-Ittihad on loan for two seasons, winning the Saudi Crown Prince Cup and the Kings Cup.

Having represented Egypt at several youth levels, including winning the 2013 Africa U-20 Cup of Nations with the under-20 side, he made his senior international debut in 2013. He was included in Egypt's squads for the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations and the 2018 FIFA World Cup.
