The General Administration of Mujahideen was the core of King Abdulaziz's army, which was founded when loyal volunteers dedicated themselves to support King Abdulaziz to liberate Riyadh from capture in 1319 H. After restitution of Riyadh, the King began to establish his state. The General Administration of Mujahideen is one of the important sectors of the ministry of interior; its Director-General is directly linked to HRH the Interior Minister and his deputy.
