, under British occupation at the time. He was the eldest of nine children of an [[Egyptians|Egyptian]], Youssef Naguib, and a Sudanese woman [[Zohra Ahmed Othman]]. His family name, "Elkashlan," was popular in Egypt at that time, due to well-known scientific personalities such as Saad Elkashlan and Abdulsamad Elkashlan. He came from a long line of army officers; his father served in the [[Military of Egypt|Egyptian aArmy]] in [[Sudan]].

Naguib spent his formative years in Sudan, where, as a child, ostriches and monkeys were his playmates, in a house decorated with hunting trophies like elephant tusks, tiger-skin rugs and rhinoceros and gazelle heads on the wall. Naguib's favourite game, however, was playing at soldiers with his younger brother, Ali. Having built a toy fortress in the front yard, Naguib would spend hours conquering inches of land with his toy soldiers.{{citation needed|date=March 2015}}
