Harith bin Ghazi al-Nadhari

Harith bin Ghazi al-Nadhari (Arabic: حارث غازي النظاري  Ḥāriṯ Ghāzī an-Naẓārī; died 31 January 2015) was a senior sharia official of the Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) based in Yemen.

[1] Al-Nadhari has featured in many of AQAP's propaganda videos such as rebuking the Islamic State announcement of expanding their caliphate into Yemen and renewing loyalties to al-Qaeda Emir Ayman al-Zawahiri.

The policy of our brothers in the Islamic State split the ranks of the mujahideen, and scattered them, in this sensitive phase in the history of the mujahid ummah [community].

[2] On 9 January, a speech of Harith bin Ghazi al-Nadhari claimed AQAP's responsibility for the Charlie Hebdo shooting in Paris, citing the motive as "revenge for the honor" of Muhammad.

[1] On 31 January 2015 al-Nadhari and three other AQAP militants were killed by a U.S. drone strike.
