Since its foundation, AlFarqad Publishing House emphasized the importance of, and need for spreading the spirit of enlightenment across the Arab World, through highlighting the humanistic features of Arab thought and culture. These constitute the apt starting point to comprehend a civilization representing the first symptoms of civilized human consciousness. This vision is materialized through publishing creative and critical works by an elite of Arab intellectuals.
The other dimension in the activities of Alfarqad, which is equally important, is represented by the translation into Arabic of a wide variety of works that enjoy world acclaim from different cultures and languages by a carefully selected group of translators who have a wide linguistic, cultural and academic experience, with the purpose of introducing Arab readers to the methods and ways of thinking of major names in various world cultures in the fields of politics, thought, sociology, spiritualism, poetry, the novel and literary criticism.
