The Arabic-language satirical magazine al-Alam ( Arabic: العلم; DMG: al-ʿĀlam; English: "The World") was published weekly in Cairo between 1926 and 1927 in a total of 51 issues. [1] Its founder and editor was ʿAli Fahmi Kamil (1870-1926 ), who also served as manager of the journal al-Liwaʾ. [2] The journal deals mostly with political and social events of its time. [3] In 1927, the magazine was merged with another publication, Kull shay, to form the periodical Kull šayʾ wa-l-ʿālam. [3]
