Nureddine El-Rifai (27 November 1899 – 8 January 1980) (Arabic: نور الدين الرفاعي) was director of Lebanon's Internal Security Forces (ISF) and Prime Minister of Lebanon.

Rifai retired from the ISF in 1962. He was appointed to be Prime Minister by Suleiman Frangieh during Lebanon's short-lived military government on 23 May 1975. He served only three days before resigning his post in the face of tremendous protest and was replaced by Rashid Karami in the post.
