Line of succession to the Jordanian throne is the line of people who are eligible to succeed to the throne of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. The succession is regulated by Article 28 of the Constitution of Jordan.
Succession rules
The throne passes according to agnatic primogeniture. The only people eligible to succeed are mentally sound Muslim men who are legitimate and agnatic descendants of Abdullah I of Jordan. A prince must be born to Muslim parents in order to have succession rights.
The king has the right to appoint one of his brothers as heir apparent. If the king dies without legitimate heir, the throne devolves upon the person whom the National Assembly selects from amongst the descendants of Hussein bin Ali, Sharif of Mecca, the founder of the Arab Revolt.
A person can be barred from succession by Royal Decree on the ground of unsuitability. His descendants would not be automatically excluded.
