Islamic Virtue Party

The Iraqi Islamic Party values ​​(Arabic حزب الفضيلة الإسلامي العراقي Hizb al - Islamiyya al - Fadhila al - Iraqi, also known as Fadila movement or (al- ) Fadhela Party ) is a moderate Shiite party in Iraq.

History

Al - Fadhela in 2003 shortly after Saddam's fall as a result of a disagreement with respect to the intra-party discipline and the distribution of decision-making powers between Muqtada al-Sadr and Muhammad Yaqubi founded as Yaqubi with part of the Sadr movement founded his own party. al - Fadhela participated in the election for the National Assembly in January 2005 and in the choice of Representatives in December 2005 as a subgroup of the United Iraqi Alliance and was able in the latter 15 seats in parliament win (14 directly elected seats and a compensation mandate ). In May 2006, the former Secretary General of al - Fadhela, Nadim al - Jabiri was replaced by Abdelrahim al -Husseini and al - Fadhela retired on the grounds of U.S. interference from the coalition negotiations to form a government after other parties refused to had al - Fadhela concede the post of oil and trade minister. In March 2007, al - Fadhela eventually left the United Iraqi Alliance, under the pretext that their leader Muqtada al-Sadr wants to radicalize the party and deepen the rift between Iraqi Sunnis and Shiites. Upon this al - Fadhela joined the nationalist- secular Iyad Allawi's Iraqi National Movement and rejected in September 2007 a ​​proposal for negotiation of the Sadr movement from. A severe blow to al - Fadhela however came in April 2007 when, within the Supreme Islamic Council in Iraq succeeded in a vote of no confidence against Muhammad al- Waili, the then governor of Basra province to win, which Islamic values ​​party lost its most important political position. For the election of Representatives in 2010 al - Fadhela could then only six seats in Parliament to decide for themselves, although the Iraqi National Movement won a total of most seats in parliament.

Political Ideology
