Steve Snell, Gloucestershire Cricket Performance Director, said, "We're delighted to welcome back Mohammad to the squad. He's a proven international performer and to have his experience available to us for the remainder of the Blast tournament will be invaluable.
"He has spent a lot of time with us this season and he knows the environment well, so for him to join us at this time will greatly help as we look to kick on for the second half of the T20 Blast campaign."
In April this year, Amir made a return to first-class cricket after signing a three-match deal to play for Gloucestershire in the County Championship.
