History and profile

Rose al-Yūsuf was first published on 26 October 1925.[1][2] The magazine was named after its founder, Rose al Yusuf.[3][4] It is published by Rose al Yusuf group[5] and is based in Cairo.[6]

The editor of the magazine was Mohamed El-Tabii until 1934.[7] He had a great role in establishing the paper alongside Rose al Yusuf,[8] a Syrian-born female journalist and the founder of the magazine.[5] Later on other renowned Egyptian journalists worked as editors in the magazine including Mostafa Amin and Ali Amin. Armenian-Egyptian cartoonist Saroukhan drew the cover page of the magazine from March 1928 to 1934.[7] Rakha and Zuhdi, Egyptian cartoonists, also contributed to the magazine.[7]

The magazine started as a cultural and literary publication by Rose al Yusuf, but became a political magazine by 1928.[9] In 1935, the publisher added a daily newspaper with the same name. Both are published in Arabic. Although Rose al-Yūsuf is a political magazine, it also covers entertainment news.[3] In 1960 President Gamal Nasser nationalized the magazine and it was begun to be controlled by the Egyptian government.[10][11] The magazine had a leftist leaning[3] during the presidency of Nasser and of Anwar Sadat.[5]

As of 1957 Ihsan Abdel Quddus was the editor-in-chief.[12] Since its control by government in 1960 the editors-in-chief of the magazine have been appointed by the Shura Council.[13] In July 2005 Abdallah Kamal was appointed editor-in-chief, replacing Mohamed Abdel Moneim in the post.[13][14] He served in the post until 2011.[15] In ِApril 2011 Osama salama became the editor-in-chief (The period that SCAF was ruling Egypt). Salama left his post when Muslim brotherhood came to the power[16]. Essam Abdelaziz (2012\ 2014) replacing him in the post.In 2014 Ibrahim Khalil became the editor-in-chief[17]. Khalil served in the post until 30 May 2017.

Since May 31, 2017 Hany Abdullah became Editor in Chief of Rose al-Yūsuf weekly magazine. According to the age, Hany Abdullah was the younger "editor-in-chief" among The editors of national journalism in Egypt[18][19][20] , since Nationalization of the press in Naser’s era. [He was 36 when he took the charge of Rose al-Yūsuf weekly magazine].[21]. Hany Abdullah was a specialist reporter in "Political Islam" and Muslim Brotherhood issues. In April 2013, he was arguing that the Egyptian people will protest against Muslim Brotherhood regime, and the "group" will be ousted from power in July 2013[22], and that's what happened indeed. After throwing out Muslim Brotherhood from power, Hany Abdullah wrote a book about Muslim Brotherhood International Organization. The book based on a large amount of documents that explained what was happening - in fact- at the Organization's closed rooms, and uncovered the secret relations between the Radical Organization and Intelligence services all over the world. According to [WorldCat Identities] [23], the book that titled: [Kaʻbat al-jawāsīs : al-wathāʼiq "al-sirrīyah" li-tanẓīm "al-Ikhwān" al-duwalī] (Arabic: كعبة الجواسيس: الوثائق السرية لتنظيم الإخوان الدولي‎), was one of Most widely held works about Ikhwān al-Muslimūn Muslim Brotherhood.

The circulation of the weekly in 2000 was 250,000 copies.[24]
