Jordan's Special Royal Guard Command is a part of the Jordanian Armed Forces, and is composed of two infantry combat brigades, one ceremonial bodyguard, one training center, and a Horse mounted unit. The combat Brigade‘s are divided into armored infantry and fire support battalions as well as a special Air defense battalion. The Royal Guard Brigade is one of the most elite units of the Jordanian army and is primarily responsible for the military protection and defense of the royal Hashemite dynasty.
Organizational structure
= Hamza Ibn Abd Al-Muttalib (Sayed Al-Shuhada) Royal Guard Brigade
=The Royal Guard Brigade is based in Amman. Its members are largely recruited from the most loyal Bedouin tribes of the east bank of Jordan. It is not to be confused with the king's Circassian Bodyguard who, though part of the Special Royal Guard Command, are a separate unit primarily assigned to ceremonial duties within the interior of Jordan's various Royal palaces.

His Majesty’s Special Security Group
The Special Royal Guard Command is under the direct personal control of the King. His Majesty’s Special Security Group is a unit within the Royal Guard Brigade that is responsible for the close personal security of the king and is basically the Jordanian equivalent of the U.S. Secret Service. His Majesty Special Security Group accompanies the king 24 hours seven days a week and maintains security at his offices and various Palaces. It was formerly commanded by the king's brother, Prince Ali.
= Hussein Bin Ali 30th Special Mission Brigade
=The Special Mission Brigade has a dual function. While it provides security services to the royal palace it is also charged with the protection of other important Jordanian state institutions and the maintenance of internal security within the state. This includes anti-terrorist security operations in urban areas.

The guards wear two ceremonial swords: a long blade bearing an engraving reading “If God helps you, no one can overcome you,” and another blade nicknamed “the scent of death".
