Al Jarida (Arabic: الجريدة, lit.'The Newspaper') was an Arabic language liberal newspaper which was published in Cairo, Egypt, from 1907 to 1914. The paper was the official organ of the Umma Party. It was one of the publications that shaped the Egyptian nationalist culture containing the Westernized elements and was very influential during its existence.[1]

History and profile

Al Jarida was established in 1907 as a biweekly publication and claimed to be "a purely Egyptian paper" which aimed to defend the rights and interests of the Egyptians.[1][2] The same year the Umma Party was also founded, and Al Jarida became its official media outlet.[1][3] The paper was founded by Ahmad Lutfi Al Sayyid and Talaat Harb.[4][5] The former edited the paper between 1907 and 1911.[2][6] Mohammed Hussein Heikal replaced Al Sayyid in the post in 1911.[2]

The target audience was wealthy landowners and reformists who were close to the Umma Party.[7] The contributors of the paper were young writers and intellectuals as well as feminists.[6] They included Mohammed Hussein Heikal[4] and Malak Hifni Nasif, a woman writer and poet also known as Bahithat Al Badiya.[6] The paper frequently covered economy-related articles some of which were written by Talaat Harb.[5]

Al Jarida folded in 1914.[1] Its successors were Al Sufur and Al Siyasa.[8][9]
