The Pasdaran Muqaddasūna Allah, also known as the Brigade of the Holy Guards of Allah, is a special operations brigade of the 1st Special Operations Division in the Wallene Defence Force. It was formed in 1369 originally as the personal guard of the Imam but it would be integrated into the military in the 1600s to the modern day. The PMA is one of only two 'brigades of religion' in the entirety of the WDF; the other one being the Christian Saint Peter's Brigade.

The PMA is led by a brigadier, as of 2016 by Brig. Abdollah Al-Tappe, and a deputy brigadier as a ceremonial second-in-command, as of 2010 by Imam Hasham Babak Torkan, which in fact makes the brigade the only one to have a religious leader in a high-ranking, though ceremonial, position.
