The Muhajirin wa-Ansar Alliance (Arabic: تحالف المهاجرين والأنصار‎‎, Alliance of Emigrants and Helpers) is an alliance of Salafi groups that have been active during the Syrian civil war.[1] The groups involved are: Jund al-Aqsa, Liwaa al-Umma, the Omar Brigade and the Haq Brigade in Idlib.[1] Two prominent members of the alliance, Jund al-Aqsa and Haq Brigade in Idlib, became part of the Army of Conquest operations room in 2015, entering into a strategic relationship with al-Nusra Front. Jund al-Aqsa later left the Army of Conquest.
