Army of the Men of the Naqshbandi Order
The Army of the Men of the Naqshbandi Order (Arabic: جيش رجال الطريقة النقشبندية, romanized: Jaysh Rijāl al-Ṭarīqah al-Naqshbandiyya, JRTN), also known as the Naqshbandi Army, is an Iraqi Ba'athist militant group which fought against occupying U.S.-led Coalition forces as part of the Iraqi insurgency during the Iraq War, and then continued to fight following the withdrawal of American troops. Media outlets frequently refer to the group by the initials JRTN, a romanization of its Arabic name. Supreme Command for Jihad and Liberation, technically the name of the umbrella organization to which JRTN belongs, is also often used to refer to JRTN specifically. It was named after the Naqshbandi Sufi order. The JRTN's ideology has been described as "a mix of Islamic and pan-Arab nationalistic ideas", and "under the influence of Ba'athist and Islamist political ideals" with Izzat Ibrahim al-Douri being described as "the hidden sheikh of the Men of the Naqshbandis".
