Al Ahly Handball Club () is one of Al Ahly Sporting Club's sections that represent the club in Egypt as well as in international handball competitions. Al Ahly's Handball team was founded in 1959.
The Al Ahly handball team has participated in the Egyptian Handball League since the beginning in 1960s until the present. The Championship was played under the name of the Republic League. The first championship win for the Al Ahly team in the Egyptian Handball League was in 1968 and 1969. The Al Ahly Handball Club has won the most titles in the league, 24 of which were gold medals. It participated in 6 different championships every season: the Egyptian Handball League, the Egypt cup, the Egyptian Handball Federation, the African Handball Champions League, the African Handball Cup Winners' Cup, and the African Handball Super Cup.

Al Ahly had the best record in the IHF Super Globe when it achieved a silver medal in 2007. For many years, Al Ahly preferred to participate in Arab tournaments instead of African tournaments, causing Al Ahly to remain at the top of Arab handball clubs with 8 total trophies. Al Ahly was the first team to qualify to the African Super Cup in 1994, but it withdrew its participation in Arab Championships.

Al Ahly has had many successful generations of handball, but during the 90s they have had the most success. During this time, they won 6 Egyptian Leagues, 2 Egypt Cups, 2 African Handball Champion Leagues, and 6 Arab Championships, not including the great efforts with the Egypt men's national handball team.

Al Ahly player Gohar Nabil was nominated as the Best Handball Player in the World in 1998 and 2000. Further, Sameh Abdel Warth was chosen at the Handball World Team in 1997.
