Hassan Mabrouk (born 29 July 1982) is an Egyptian-Qatari handball player for Al Rayyan and the Qatari national team.
Mabrouk has previously played for the Egyptian national team at the 2008 Summer Olympics.
He was part of the Qatar team that won silver medals at the 2015 World Championship in Qatar, the first World Championship medal for both Qatar and for any Asian team. The result was however controversial due to the many naturalized players of Qatar, of which Mabrouk was one of them. According to the Frankfurter Allgemeine, only four of the 17 players in the squad were native to Qatar. The practice was criticised by Austrian goalkeeper after his team's loss to Qatar in the round of 16, saying "It [felt] like playing against a world selection team" and "I think it is not the sense of a world championship." Furthermore there were claims of favourable refereering for the hosts. After the final whistle of their semifinal against Poland, the Polish players showed their discontent by ironically applauding the three referees.
His brothers, Ashraf, Hazem, Hussein, Belal and Ibrahim, are also international handball players.
