Al Imam Islamic reformist magazine, published between 1906 and 1908, that was modelled on the reformist publication al- Manar, which was published by Rashid Rida in Cairo. Established on 23 July 1906 by a group that included four prominent Muslim intellectuals and personalities of the time— Sheik Tahir Jalaluddin (its first editor), Syed Sheik Alhadi, Haji Abbas Mohd Taha and Sheik Salim al- Kalali (its director for the first two years). Published monthly, it was printed by Matbaah Melayu Tanjung Pagar and, later, Al- Imam Printing Company Ltd. It was written in Malay, but many Arabic words and expressions were used as its audience comprised mainly those who had undergone religious education. The magazine was available in Malaya and was distributed in Sumatra as well.

Al Imam was published primarily to condemn traditional practices and institutions of the Muslim world on the premise that they were largely un- Islamic and were remnants of the pre- Islamic past. In particular, the magazine singled out the corrupt lifestyles and values of the ruling elite, and the outdated teaching methods of the conservative ulema (scholars). While primarily concerned with religion, the magazine also touched on political, economic and social issues of the Malays. Al Imam ceased publication on 25 December 1908.
