Who are we?
Mashallah News is an independent online publishing platform for ‘disOriented’ stories from the Middle East. Our goal is to remap the region one story at a time, sharing a new outlook on life in the cities we cover.
Why do we exist?
Mashallah News was initially conceived by a small group of Beirut-based independent journalists in 2010, towards the end of one of the city’s notorious, sticky summers. Tired of a media coverage dominated by ruins, rockets, religious fanaticism and ‘ancient’ retributions, the team decided to create a multilingual forum from which to broadcast different and neglected narratives.
What do we publish?
Our focus is on urban issues, culture and society — not the national, regional and international politics already covered in abundance by mainstream media. We want our audience to develop an evolving relationship with this region, through a continuous engagement with its diversity of life-worlds, perspectives, beliefs and actions.

We welcome general submissions on a rolling basis. We also regularly publish thematic series, for which we circulate special calls for submission.

In 2014 we published what we hope will be the first of many books, Beirut Re-Collected, an anthology of ‘forgotten stories’ from Beirut.
