National Order Party (Millî Nizam Partisi, MNP) was an Islamist political party in Turkey, which adopted the Millî Görüş ideology. It was the first political party of the Millî Görüş movement and also the first Islamist political party in Turkey.[1]
The MNP was founded on 26 January 1970 by Necmettin Erbakan. The Naqshbandi leader Mehmet Zahit Kotku was instrumental in its establishment.[2] It was closed down on 20 May 1971 by the authorities on the grounds, that it violated the Constitution, specifically the articles dealing with secularism.[3]
It was succeeded by the National Salvation Party (MSP) established in October 1972.[4]
