Omar Ahmad (Arabic: عمر أحمد‎) is the co-founder of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), a Washington D.C.-based Muslim civil rights organization.

He had been the chairman of CAIR's board of directors since its founding in 1994, but stepped down from that position in May 2005.[1] At the time that he resigned, CAIR claimed to be the largest Muslim civil liberties organization in the United States, with over 30 regional offices and chapters.[2]
