Ha-Shaḥar (Hebrew: הַשַּׁחַר, lit.'The Dawn') was a Hebrew-language monthly periodical, published and edited at Vienna by Peretz Smolenskin from 1868 to 1884.[2]

The journal contained scientific articles, essays, biographies, and literature, as well as general Jewish news.[3] The objects of Smolenskin were to spread Enlightenment and knowledge of the Hebrew language, and particularly to oppose obscurantism.[4] Its publication was interrupted several times for lack of support. Ha-Shaḥar greatly influenced the Haskalah movement, especially in Russia, where it was well known. It was read secretly in the yeshivot, in private houses, and in the batte midrashot.[5]
