History

The Order of the Hashemite Star (Wisam al-Najat al-Hashemi) was established by King Hussein in 1971. The Order is conferred in a single grade to all ranks of the Jordanian Armed Forces in recognition of acts of supreme heroism and distinguished service in the face of the enemy.

A miniature gilt emblem ribbon attachment in the design of a sabre is authorized for wear on the ribbon to denote additional demonstrations of heroism in the face of the enemy or subsequent qualifying service.

The Star features Arabic script on the obverse which translates to "Wisan Al-Najma Al-Hashimiya" or "Order of the Hashemite Star."
