AL-NABA' PROJECT

The Al-Naba' Project is the work of a very small team that collectively has over three decades' experience in the Middle East working in Arabic-English translation, media and counter extremism... The Al-Naba' Project is designed to help learners and non-native users of Arabic for the purposes of research and counter-extremism (CVE) work navigate the language and content of Islamic State's weekly Al-Naba' newsletter... As Islamic State's principle Arabic-language vehicle, Al-Naba' targets an audience of core support. It remains understudied, however, and strikingly so when compared to ISIS' English-language magazines Dabiq and Rumiyah, which ceased publication in 2016 and 2017 while reaching 15 and 13 issues respectively.
