Prvi broj novina Preporod izašao je 15. septembra 1970. godine, otkada izlazi u kontinuitetu i distribuira se u BiH i širom svijeta. Preporod ima reputaciju jednog od najznačajnijih printanih medija u BiH, a s provjerenim informacijama, člancima i analizama već 50 godina promovira univerzalne vrijednosti. Njegovo ime ukazuje na cilj i svrhu: kontinuiranim progresom učiniti boljim pojedinca i društvo shodno zahtjevima vremena i kur'anskom porukom koja je moto Preporoda i nalazi se kao dio loga na njegovoj naslovnici: “Allah neće izmijeniti stanje jednog naroda dok taj narod ne promijeni sebe.“ Od njegovog utemeljenja, promovirajući nezavisno mišljenje i novinarstvo, za Preporod pišu i govore najveća domaća i svjetska imena iz različitih naučnih i kulturnih oblasti bez obzira na vjerska i politička uvjerenja i riječ je o novinama koje su zadržale princip borbe protiv uskih i zatvorenih vjerskih, nacionalnih i ideoloških okvira. Posebno bogatstvo Preporoda jeste što predstavlja svojevrsnu enciklopediju tradicije, baštine, kulture i povijesti koja stoljećima egzistira na ovim područjima i gotovo je nemoguće baviti se bilo kakvim istraživanjem islamske misli, ali i višestoljetne tradicije ovog prostora, bez konsultiranja Preporoda kao izvora koji se danas citira u svim važnijim naučnim radovima i publikacijama. Također, Preporod je medij koji nikada nije prekinuo direktnu vezu s narodom čija mišljenja cijeni i artikulira kroz različite novinarske forme.
