The Kingdom of Jordan Celebrates The Birth Of Princess Iman

Jordan’s Crown Prince Al Hussein bin Abdullah II and Princess Rajwa Al Hussein welcomed their daughter, Iman this morning. 

The family chose a name which is dear to them, with the eldest daughter of King Abdullah II and Queen Rania also called Iman. 

On his official X account, King Abdullah II wrote “Praise be to God who has blessed us with our first granddaughter, Iman, daughter of Al Hussein, congratulations to Al Hussein and dear Rajwa on the birth of their daughter. We pray to Allah to help her grow up well and protect her for her parents. You’ve brightened our family, Grandpa.”

Princess Iman is the first child of the Royal couple, who were married last summer in a beautiful ceremony in Jordan, which was attended by VIP guests from around the world including Prince William and Princess Catherine.

Due to the Jordanian laws of succession, the crown must pass to a male heir, so Princess Iman’s birth will not impact the current rule of succession which runs from King Abdullah II to Crown Prince Al Hussein and then to his younger brother.
