Eenasul Fateh (Bengali: ঈনাসুল ফাতেহ; born 3 April 1959), also known by his stage name Aladin, is a Bangladeshi-British cultural practitioner, magician, live artist and former international management consultant.

Fateh was born in Washington, D.C., United States. He has lived in Geneva, Paris, Prague, Baghdad, Algiers, Calcutta, Delhi, Lahore, Karachi and London. He is the son of the Bangladeshi diplomat, statesman, Sufi, and first Bangladeshi foreign secretary Abul Fateh.

From 2000 to 2004, Aladin was Co/Vice-Chair of the Mayor of London's Cultural Strategy Group.

In 2003, Fateh (along with several members of his family) appeared in the documentary film Roxanna's Story, part of the "National Geographic" series 'Running for Freedom' about Londoners whose lives were affected by tyranny in their or their ancestors’ countries of origin.

Fateh is also a magician, described in 1999 by The Times, as "an extraordinary magician, performer and artist." In 2005, Aladin's sleight of hand magic was showcased in the international film project Book of Cool. In 2007, Aladin played himself in the Universal Pictures film Magicians.
