Natik Hashim Abid-Aoun (January 15, 1960 – September 26, 2004) was an Iraqi football defender who played for Iraq in the 1986 FIFA World Cup.[1] He also played for Al-Quwa Al-Jawiya.

Natiq started his career at Amana youth team in Baghdad alongside the likes of Basim Qasim, Anad Abid, Basil Gorgis and Karim Allawi.

In 1982, Natiq was given his international debut by Yugoslavian coach Vojo Gardesevic after his displays for both the Iraqi youth team and Amana. A year later he joined Al-Qowa Al-Jawia then Al-Jaish before moving to Al-Rasheed, who had many internationals in their side such as Ahmed Radhi, Adnan Dirjal and Haris Mohammed.

He participated at the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles, against Canada, Cameroon and Yugoslavia and the 1988 Olympics in Seoul, where he played only one game against Zambia. NatiQ also played in all the 1986 World Cup games in Mexico in central midfield ironically alongside his former Amana team-mates Basil Gorgis, Anad Abid and Basim Qasim.[2]

He died of a heart attack in 2004 in Muscat, where he was coaching a first division club.
