Mudar Mohammad Ayesh Badran (Arabic: مضر بدران‎; 18 January 1934 – 22 April 2023) was a Jordanian politician, government minister, and industrialist.

Badran was born in Jerash, Jordan (then the Emirate of Transjordan, a colony of the United Kingdom) in 1934 to Palestinian parents.

He was appointed to the position again on 4 December 1989, replacing Zaid bin Shaker after his resignation.

[2][3] Badran's third term lasted until 1991, when Jordan once again became a democracy, and the Senate gained its legitimate powers again after two decades with no parliamentary elections.

Badran was also the target of a failed assassination attempt in Amman in February 1981 by the Syrian Defense Companies.
