Umma Party (Jordan)

Common card · No. 287513

The Umma Party (Arabic: حزب الأمة, romanized: Hizb Al-Umma) is an Islamist political party in Jordan. Founded originally as the Islamic Action Front Party in 1992 with 350 members, as the political wing of the Muslim Brotherhood in Jordan. In early 2025, Jordan banned and outlawed the Muslim Brotherhood due to members' links to a violent plot. The IAF's offices were searched and documents confiscated, but the party itself was not banned. In 2026, the party changed its name to the Umma Party.
