The Islamic Action Front (IAF; Arabic: جبهة العمل الإسلامي, romanizedJabhat al-'Amal al-Islami) is an Islamist political party in Jordan. It is the political wing of the Muslim Brotherhood in Jordan.

Founded in 1992 with 350 members, Ahmed Azaida, Ishaq Al-Farhan and Abdul Latif Arabiyat were the main force behind the formation.[2]

Sheikh Hamza Mansour is the chief of the IAF and has declared the organization's intentions as wanting "to be treated as free men" and as wanting "relations with the US based on mutual respect", while questioning the US administration's motives in the Middle East and around the world.[2]
