Islamic Front Bangladesh (Bengali: ইসলামিক ফ্রন্ট বাংলাদেশ), is an Islamist political party in Bangladesh.[2] Registered by Bangladesh Election Commission. It was founded on 21 December 1990.

Sayed Bahadur Shah Mujaddedi is the president of the party, and Abul Bashar Mohammad Zainul Abedin (Zubaer) its secretary.[1][3]

In December 2006, the party aligned itself with the Awami League-led 'Grand Alliance'.[4][5]

It claimed that Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami, the largest Islamist party in Bangladesh before its deregistration, was distorting the religion.[6]

The party is associated with the student group Bangladesh Islami Chhatra Sena.
