Al-Quds (Arabic: القدس) was a Arabic language newspaper published in Ottoman period Jerusalem between 1908 and 1914. Its publisher was Jurji Habib Hanania (1864-1920). According to the Hanania's editorial in the first issue of the newspaper on 18 September 1908 he had already applied several times for the permit to publish a newspaper starting in 1899 without success.[2] In 1908 al-Quds was the first of many new newspapers that could be established after the Young Turk Revolution newly improvement of freedom of the press. It started with issues twice a week in four pages and printed in 1,500 copies.[1] With the rule of Djemal Pasha freedom of the press worsened and the newspaper was eventually discontinued.
Among the authors of the published articles were Khalil al-Sakakini and Shaykh Ali Rimawi.[1]
