Jaish ul-Adl or Jaish al-Adl (Army of Justice) is a Sunni insurgent group based in Sistan and Baluchestan province of Iran, responsible for several attacks against civilians and military personnel in Iran.

The group was founded in 2012 by members of Jundallah, a Sunni militant group that had been weakened following Iran's capture and execution of its leader, Abdul Malik Rigi, in 2010. Its first major attack occurred in October 2013. Jaish ul-Adl is a designated terrorist organization by Iran.
