ワッハーブ派
Rashid Rida was the sole editor-in-chief of the magazine. Its content was heavily about the Quranic interpretations. Rida published numerous articles in "Al-Manār" which praised the Wahhabi movement in Saudi Arabia. However, the magazine also featured articles on politics. One of the contributors was Abd al Rahman al Kawakibi, a scholar from Aleppo, Syria. His book, "Umm al-Qura", was serialized in "Al-Manār" from April 1902 to February 1903 which proposed the establishment of an Arabian/Sharifian Caliphate.
