Ali Mohammad Al-Hussein Ali Al-Adeeb (Arabic: علي بن محمد الحسين علي الأديب) is an Iraqi politician and a senior member of the Islamic Dawa Party. In April 2006 he was tipped by the United Iraqi Alliance as a candidate for the post of Prime Minister, after their original choice, Ibrahim Jaafari, was vetoed by the Kurdistani Alliance and Iraqi Accord Front. Al-Adeeb was born in Karbala in 1944 and went to secondary school in Baghdad. He obtained a degree in Literature and Education from the Baghdad University and taught Psychology. While Saddam Hussein was the President of Iraq, Al-Adeeb was exiled to Iran, where he headed the Teheran-based Political Bureau of the Dawa party and took the nickname "Abu Bilal". He returned to Iraq in 2003 after the invasion. Al-Adeeb was appointed to the committee that drafted the Constitution of Iraq in 2004, and has been a member of the Iraqi Parliament since 2005. He served 2 consecutive terms in the parliament before being appointed the Minister of Higher education and Scientific research in 27 December 2014.
