Mohiyedine Sharif (Arabic: محيي الدين الشريف; killed March 29, 1998), also known as The Electrician, was a master bombmaker for Hamas. A protégé of Yahya Ayyash, Sharif was responsible for the First and second Jerusalem bus 18 massacres, and the Ashkelon bus station bombing.^[1]

Sharif gained a Bachelor Of Arts degree in electronic engineering at the Al-Quds University. Sharif died in a car explosion near a garage in Ramallah on March 29, 1998. Many Palestinians believe that he was a victim to internal struggles between Palestinian militias.^{[citation needed]}

Following his death, the Palestinian Authority arrested five members of Hamas for his killing.^[2] But Hamas said that the Preventive Security Force by its commander Jibril Rajoub killed Sharif after they arrested him.^[3]
