Peer Review Process

Peer Review Process

Journal of Islamic Economics and Finance (JIEF) implements a double-blind peer review process to ensure the quality and integrity of published articles. In this process, the identities of both the reviewers and the authors are concealed from each other during the review process. All submitted manuscripts are first evaluated by the editorial team to determine their suitability with the journal’s focus and scope. Manuscripts that meet the basic requirements will then be sent to at least two independent reviewers who are experts in the relevant field. The reviewers evaluate the manuscript based on several criteria, including originality, research methodology, academic contribution, clarity of presentation, and relevance to Islamic economics and finance. Based on the reviewers’ comments and recommendations, the editor will make one of the following decisions: • Accept Submission • Revisions Required • Resubmit for Review • Decline Submission The final decision regarding publication is made by the Editor-in-Chief based on the reviewers' recommendations. The peer review process generally takes between 2–6 weeks depending on reviewer availability.
