Muhammad Najati Sidqi (Arabic: محمد نجاتي صدقي‎, Muḥammad Najātī Ṣidqī, 1905–1979) was a Palestinian public intellectual and activist,[1][2] trade unionist,[3] translator, writer, critic and erstwhile communist. Though almost forgotten as a figure in the Palestinian movement for independence,[4] he played an important role in it, and witnessed many momentous moments in the early history of the 20th century. Aside from his native Arabic, he was fluent in French, Russian and Spanish.
