Harith ibn Sulayman al-Dari (1941 – 12 March 2015) was an Iraqi Islamic scholar and politician who served as the chairman of the Association of Muslim Scholars, a prominent Sunni Islamist organization, from 2003 until his death in 2015. Al-Dari was also a leader of the Zoba' tribe. An outspoken critic of the American invasion of Iraq, he became known as "the Spiritual Leader of the Iraqi Resistance" (Insurgency). His father and grandfather assassinated Royal Army Colonel Gerard Leachman and played a part in the 1920 revolt against British imperial rule; which was the fiercest in the Shia south, and was a seminal moment of unity between Iraq's Sunnis, Shias, and Kurds that forced the British to allow a form of self-rule.
