Al-Machriq (Arabic: The East) was a journal founded in 1898 by Jesuit and Chaldean priest Louis Cheikhô, published by Jesuit fathers of Saint Joseph University in Beirut, Lebanon. The subtitle was Revue Catholique Orientale. Sciences, Lettres, Arts. Cheikho edited Al Bashir in addition to Al Machriq. Al-Machriq played a significant role in reviving classical Arabic. It extensively dealt with the rapport between the Maronites and the Marada, two Christian groups living in the region. In the initial phase the magazine also featured literary work. It had run through 72 volumes by 1998.
