Naoum Mokarzel (sometimes spelled "Naʿum Mukarzil"; Arabic: نعوم مكرزل / ALA-LC: Naʻūm Mūkarzil; August 2, 1864 – April 5, 1932) was an influential intellectual and publisher who immigrated to the United States from Mount Lebanon in Ottoman Syria. He established Al-Hoda, the largest Arabic daily in North America and facilitated Arabic printing by adapting the linotype machine to the Arabic script with his brother Salloum. Mokarzel was a strident and impassioned writer who used his publishing house to print a number of books and to circulate Maronitism and Lebanese nationalism. He was involved in a number of sectarian brawls and legal disputes particularly with the publishers of rival Arabic New York-based newspapers, and his unwavering stances and criticism of the Syro-Lebanese diaspora community often engendered controversy and politico-sectarian division.
