The 1993–94 Iraqi National League was the 20th season of the competition since its foundation in 1974. The league title was won by Al-Zawraa for the fifth time in their history, and they also won the Iraq FA Cup to secure the double. The top scorer, Younis Abid Ali, set a record for the most goals scored in one Iraqi League season (36) which still stands today. Al-Zawraa lost only one match out of 50, going 38 games unbeaten on their way to the title. They went one game unbeaten at the start of the 1994–95 season, completing a 39-match unbeaten streak that broke the record set by Al-Shorta (31) between 1979 and 1981.[1][2]

Notes:
  1. ^ Al-Talaba qualified for the Cup Winners' Cup as runners-up of the Iraq FA Cup, won by Al-Zawraa.
  2. ^ The two lowest-placed teams from Baghdad (Al-Shabab and Al-Khutoot) were relegated to ensure that each province in Iraq would continue to be represented by at least one club in the league.
  3. ^ Originally, the Iraq Youth Team participated in the league. Their record was 23 games, 8 wins, 6 draws, 9 losses, 33 goals scored, 29 goals conceded, 22 points. After 23 games, they were replaced by Babil, and Babil adopted the Youth Team's record at that point.
