This will do it.

var elementDocument = $("#your-element").prop("ownerDocument");

var iframeOwner = $("iframe").filter(function() {
                      return this.contentDocument == elementDocument;
                  });

It ought to be quicker than the accepted answer.

Try this it will work for you.

var requiredIframe;
$("iframe").each(function(){
  if($(this).contents().find("elementYouAreLookingFor").length){
     requiredIframe = $(this);
     return false;
  }
});
