History

Amali Science was launched in September 1970 in Karachi, Pakistan, as a monthly Urdu-language science magazine. It is regarded as Pakistan's first Urdu technical science magazine, created to bring scientific and technical knowledge to Urdu-speaking readers at a time when such content was scarce in the language. The magazine's editor was Rehan Rizvi. The publication covered a broad range of scientific and technological subjects, from health and medicine to space exploration and the history of science. It built a reputation as a pioneering Urdu science periodical, and its legacy is explicitly claimed by the current Amali Science brand, which describes itself as the "Legacy of Pakistan's first urdu technical science magazine." Over time, the print magazine ceased publication, but the Amali Science name was revived as a digital publication. The website amaliscience.com now serves as the primary platform, publishing articles in Urdu on topics such as space missions, medical breakthroughs, historical mysteries, and technological innovations. Content is organized into categories including Science, Health, History, Technology, and Space. Recent articles on the site have covered the Piri Reis map of 1513, the crash of a used SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket stage into the Moon, CAR-T cell therapy for cancer patient Paolo Perrigrino, the history of the audio cassette, the Hantavirus, and profiles of historical figures such as Sushruta. The site also features commentary on artificial intelligence and Pakistan's technology ecosystem. Today, Amali Science continues to operate as an online science media brand, maintaining its mission of making science accessible to Urdu readers while adapting to digital formats.
