Belkhodja was a Tunisian politician. He was born into a family of the Tunisian religious aristocracy whose origins date back to the arrival of his ancestor the Ottoman soldier Ali Khodja Al Hanafi who came to Tunis on the occasion of the battle fought at La Goulette against the army of Charles V. An officer in the forces of Sinan Pasha he returned to the Levant once the battle was completed. After studying at Sadiki College and Alaoui High School M'hammed Belkhodja joined the government editorial office in 1887 and worked in the translation section before being assigned to the accounting department in 1902. He was appointed as a director of the official press under the reign of Naceur Bey and then as a director of protocol. In 1915 he obtained the rank of general. In 1919 he was named caid -governor in Gabès and Bizerte. Having reached retirement age he became a government advisor until his death. During his life he contributed to cultural life: he was among the founders of the first Tunisian news newspaper El Hadhira La Capitale; it also helped disseminate several historical research and translations. In 1896 he was one of the founders of Khaldounia of which he joined the management. He also took advantage of his presence at the head of the printing press to publish some of his works and writings as well as a certain number of Tunisian manuscripts. He also participated in the North Africa conference held in Paris in 1908. As of March 2024 only three copies can be traced in OCLC 32609462 one is in a North American library Cambridge.
