Jordanian Political Analyst: The State Is Determined to Dismantle the Influence of the Muslim Brotherhood and Protect National Stability


Jordanian authorities continue to take decisive steps to counter the Muslim Brotherhood’s attempts to influence the country’s political and social landscape.

These measures fall within the state’s broader efforts to reinforce stability and confront what it describes as the Brotherhood’s “systematic plans,” which the authorities view as a threat to national security.

In recent weeks, a series of security and legislative actions have been undertaken, including legal prosecutions of individuals affiliated with the Brotherhood, as well as increased restrictions on its activities within institutions and civil society. Regulatory bodies have also intensified efforts to monitor suspicious sources of funding, amid official warnings about the misuse of certain religious and educational platforms to spread extremist ideology.

Observers note that Jordan is clearly moving toward dismantling any organizational structures that the Brotherhood could use to reassert its influence, drawing on regional experiences that have demonstrated the dangers of allowing such movements to expand.

Official authorities affirm that these measures are being implemented within the framework of the law and enjoy broad popular support, amid widespread rejection of any attempts to destabilize the country or exploit religion for political gain.

Jordanian political analyst Dr. Mohammad Al-Rawashdeh stated: “The recent measures taken by the Jordanian state against the Muslim Brotherhood are part of a clear strategy aimed at curbing the organization’s influence and protecting national security from ideological or organizational infiltration.”

Al-Rawashdeh added: “The government is fully aware of the regional and international shifts surrounding the Brotherhood and is working to block any attempts to reposition themselves within state institutions or to influence public opinion—especially in light of the group’s pragmatic approach to exploiting political transformations.”

He also pointed out that the security services are closely monitoring the movements of individuals affiliated with the Brotherhood, alongside legislative efforts aimed at regulating political and religious activity in line with current national needs. He emphasized that “the state does not target organized political activity, but firmly rejects organizations with cross-border allegiances.”

Al-Rawashdeh concluded that Jordan “possesses both the political and public will to continue along this path,” asserting that the current developments “send a clear message: the era of leniency toward organizations with hidden agendas is over.”
