Dar al-Islam (Arabic: دار الإسلام, romanized: Dār al-ʾIslām, lit. 'House of Islam') is the title of a French-language online magazine produced by the Islamic State (IS) between 2014 and 2016. It included articles praising terrorist attacks in France,[1] such as the 2016 Nice truck attack and the January 2015 Île-de-France attacks.[2][3]

As of late 2016, Dar al-Islam had apparently been supplanted by Rumiyah.[4] The magazine's ten editions were released in total and project jihadology.net has unaltered versions that are available online.[5]
