Musbah bint Nasser (Template:Lang-ar, "lamp of light"; 1884 – 15 March 1961) was the first queen consort of Jordan.

She was born in 1884 in Mecca, Ottoman Empire. She was the elder twin daughter of Amir Nasser Pasha and his wife Dilber Khanum, the younger being Huzaima, Queen consort of Syria and Iraq as wife of Faisal I.

In 1904, Musbah married Sayyid Abdullah bin al-Husayn later King Abdullah I of Jordan at Stinia Palace, İstinye, Istanbul, Ottoman Empire. They had a son and two daughters:

Abdullah went on to take two more wives. He married Princess Suzdil Khanum in 1913 (daughter of 'Ali) and Nahda bint Uman in 1949 (a Sudanese lady), making Musbah his senior wife. On 25 May 1946, Abdullah was proclaimed King of Jordan and Musbah, as his first wife, became Queen of Jordan.

Queen Musbah died on 15 March 1961 in Irbid, Jordan.[citation needed]
