Musbah bint Nasser 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.
In 1904 Musbah married Sayyid Abdullah bin al-Husayn later King Abdullah I of Jordan at Stinia Palace, İstinye, Istanbul, Ottoman Empire.
She bore him a son and two daughters:
- HRH Princess Haya (1907–1990). Married Abdul-Karim Ja'afar Zeid Dhaoui.
- King Talal I (26 February 1909 – 7 July 1972).
