Born in Mont-Saint-Aignan, Aït Ben Idir joined Le Havre in 2000 as a youth player. He made his professional debut for the club in a Ligue 2 match on 26 March 2002 against AC Ajaccio playing the full 90 minutes in a 1–0 loss. Following promotion that season, Ait-Ben-Idir did not feature in Ligue 1 play that season only appearing in one match. He would proceed to become a regular in the squad the next five seasons contributing to Le Havre's return to Ligue 1 for the 2008–09 season. He then moved on to AC Arles-Avignon, Sedan, and Ligue 2 club AJ Auxerre.

After the expiration of his Auxerre contract, Aït Ben Idir joined Wydad Casablanca on a two-year deal.[4]
