The Saadist Institutional Party(Arabic: حزب الهيئة السعدية) was an Egyptian political party. It was established in 1938 as a split-off from the Al Wafd party. Ahmed Maher and Mahmoud Fahmy Elnokrashy were on one side and party secretary Makram Ebeid was on the other. Party head Mustafa el-Nahhas took the side of Makram and dismissed Maher and Elnokrashy. The dismissed leaders created the new party.

Mahmoud an-Nukrashi Pasha who served as the prime minister of Egypt from December 1946 to December 1948 was the member of the party.[1] Ibrahim Abdel Hadi Pasha, another prime minister of Egypt between 1948 and 1949 and the successor of Mahmoud an-Nukrashi Pasha, was also a member of the party.[1]
