The opening as it read in 2015
Faith Campaign. The Return to Faith campaign ( al-Hamlah al-Imaniyah ), often referred to simply as the Faith Campaign , was a campaign conducted by the Iraqi Ba'ath party, beginning in 1993, to pursue a more socially conservative and overtly Islamist agenda.1 The campaign involved a variety of policies, including greater freedoms being granted to Islamist groups, greater resources being put into religious programmes, increased use of Islamic punishments, and a more general greater emphasis being put on Islam in all sectors of Iraqi life. The campaign was conducted under the supervision of Izzat Ibrahim al-Douri , who would later become Saddam's successor as leader of the Ba'ath party. Douri used the campaign to promote his Qaderissiyeh Sufi order, which would later form the nucleus of the Army of the Men of the Naqshbandi Order .
