Iraqi Feyli Islamic Council (Arabic: المجلس الإسلامي الفيلي العراقي; Kurdish: ئەنجومەنی فەیلیی عێراقیی ئیسلامی) is a Shia Islamist political and social organization established in the 90s made up of Feyli Kurds, a marginalized Shi’a Kurdish minority in Iraq. The Council emerged in response to decades of systemic oppression, mass deportations, and property confiscations faced by the Feyli community under the Ba’athist regime.
