Ayatollah al-Shaheed Sayyid Abū al-Fatḥ ʿIzz ad-Dīn Naṣrallāh ِal-Fāʾizī al-Mūsawī al-Ḥāʾirī (Arabic: أبو الفتح عز الدين نصر الله الفائزي الموسوي الحائري; 1696 – 1746), also known as Sayyid Nasrallah al-Haeri, was a senior Iraqi Shia jurist, teacher, poet, author and annalist.
Nasrallah was a highly revered poet and influential cleric, described as being from the greatest among the scholars of his age, and was frequently labelled as a broad-minded and tolerant personality; "accepted by the opposition and the supporters". Famous Iraqi statesman Muhammad Ridha al-Shabibi described Nasrallah as "one of the literary leaders of the 18th century". He played an important role in inner-Islamic ecumenical dialogue during the Ottoman era.
