Jurnal al-Khidiw (Arabic: جرنال الخديوي, Ottoman Turkish: جرنال الخديوى - lit. "Journal of the Khedive"), first published 1821–1822, was the first printed periodical in Arabic. It was a bilingual Turkish–Arabic bulletin for official use, with a run as small as 100 copies. At first it was handwritten and printed lithographically with irregular frequency. It was later printed with weekly and then daily frequency.

It was succeeded by Al-Waqa'i' al-Misriyya, first published December 3, 1828.
