The Arabic-language magazine al-Balagh al-Usbuʿi ( Arabic البلاغ الاسبوعی, DMG al-Balāġ al-usbūʿī  , "The Weekly News " ') appeared weekly from 1926 to 1930 in Egypt . A total of four volumes with 150 issues were published. The founder was Abbas Mahmud al-Aqqad (1889-1964), a well-known Egyptian writer, poet, philosopher and historian, who appointed Abd al-Qadir Hamzah editor of the magazine. In addition to critical political articles, numerous poems and Egyptian prose were published. Well-known authors included u. a. Mohammed Abd al-Mu'ti al-Hamshari (1908–1938), who gained popularity through his poetry . Nabawiyya Mousa Badawia (1886–1951), a teacher and pioneer among Egyptian women's rights activists of the 20th century, designed a special page for women that focused on feminist topics and discourses in Egypt at the time.

Al-Balagh al-Usbu'i was also considered a supporter of the Wafd party , which is why it is believed that its appearance was discontinued in 1930 due to this connection.
