History and profile


The first issue of Ad-Dustour (in Arabic الدستور) was published on 28 March 1967 as a result of a merger of two publications: Filastin (in Arabic فلسطين) and Al Manar (in Arabic المنار) published in the West Bank that had ceased publication in 1967 because of the Six-Day War.
The daily was a private company until 1986 when the Jordanian government bought a share of it. The daily has nearly 600 staff.
From 1991 to 1995 Musa Keilani served as the editor-in-chief of the paper. Its editor was Nabil Sharif until February 2009. The current editor-in-chief is Mustafa Riyalat.
In 1998, the daily started its website, the first newspaper in the Arab world to do so.
The estimated circulation of Ad-Dustour was 40,000 whereas it was 90,000 copies in 2003.
