Tadjidine Ben Said Massounde (Arabic: تاج الدين بن سعيد مسوندي; 1928–2004) was a Comorian politician.

He was born in 1928 in Domoni on Anjouan. Ahmed Abdallah Abderemane was his brother-in-law. Since 1978, Tadjidine worked as director of finance in the public treasury. He became paymaster-general in 1988 and held the post until March 1990. President Saïd Mohamed Djohar appointed him as the Minister of Finance and Budget.
