Submission and Review Process

• Manuscripts are to be submitted through the online submission function. You will receive an email of acknowledgment from the editorial team within 48 hours.
• All manuscripts are screened for plagiarism using Turnitin before entering the review stage.
• Islamiyyat applies a double-blind peer review system: Both reviewers and authors’ identities remain anonymous. The manuscript will be peer-reviewed by at least two (2) academic experts for originality, contribution, relevance, and presentation quality.
• To expedite decisions, Editors may conduct an initial triage and decide without external review if a manuscript is clearly unsuitable or already meets the required standards.

Review Timeline

• While the journal strives to provide timely feedback, the peer review process typically takes approximately 8–12 weeks, depending on reviewer availability and the quality of submissions.
• Authors are advised that exact timelines cannot be guaranteed.
• The journal’s overall processing time, from initial submission to final decision (including review, revisions, and editorial assessment), is approximately 8-26 weeks.

Editorial Decisions

• The Editors’ decision is final. Manuscripts deemed unsuitable for publication will not be reconsidered, and correspondence regarding rejected papers cannot be entertained.
• Manuscripts will be published upon approval by the Editor-in-Chief.

Communication

• All correspondence—including review results, revision requests, and final decisions—will be sent via email. Authors are encouraged to check their registered email accounts regularly.
• We kindly ask authors to carefully read and follow the Author Guidelines available on our website before submitting manuscripts. This will help avoid unnecessary inquiries and ensure a smooth submission process.

Thank you for your cooperation and commitment to maintaining the quality and integrity of Islamiyyat.

Sincerely,

Editor in Chief
