Aliya Fargatovna Mustafina (Russian: Алия Фархатовна Мустафина [ˈɐlʲɪja fɐrgaˈtəvnɐ mʊstaˈfʲɪnə], Tatar: Cyrillic Алия Фәрһәт кызы Мостафина, Latin Aliä Färhät qızı Mostafina; born 30 September 1994) is a Russian artistic gymnast. She is the 2010 World individual all-around champion, the 2015 European Games individual all-around and uneven bars champion, and the 2013 Universiade individual all-around and uneven bars champion. She is also the 2012 Olympic uneven bars champion, and individual all-around and floor bronze medalist, the 2013 World balance beam champion, the 2013 European champion in the all-around and on the uneven bars and 2016 European champion on the balance beam.

Mustafina represented Russia at the 2012 Summer Olympics, where she was the most decorated gymnast (and athlete in general, save for swimmers), male or female, having won four medals including the silver in the team all-around, the bronze in the individual all-around final, the gold in the uneven bars final, and the bronze in the floor final. At the 2016 Summer Olympics, Mustafina became the first female gymnast since Simona Amanar to win back to back all-around medals in two consecutive Olympics. After winning a second gold medal in the uneven bars final at the Rio Olympics, she became the first female gymnast since Svetlana Khorkina to defend her title on an apparatus final.. By winning seven Olympic medals, Mustafina ties Svetlana Khorkina's record for number of Olympic medals won by a gymnast from the Russian Federation (not including former Soviet gymnasts).
