Asma Agbarieh-Zahalka (Arabic: أسماء إغبارية-زحالقة, Hebrew: אסמא אגבארייה, born 1973) is an Israeli Arab journalist and political activist who heads the Organization for Democratic Action (Da'am) party.

[1] In 1995, after completing her undergraduate studies at Tel Aviv University in Arabic literature and in education and teaching, she started work as an editor for al-Sabar, the Arabic-language edition of the magazine Etgar (challenge) published by the newly founded Da'am party.

The party failed to cross the electoral threshold on all three occasions, winning no seats.

In November 2008 she ran for mayor of Tel Aviv-Yafo and a seat on its city council.

Despite her upbringing, she is now critical of Islam due to perceived restrictions on women as well as aspects of Sharia.
