Peer Review Process

Review Process

The article is reviewed in a blind review by external reviewers. The review is done for a maximum of 2 months.

Every manuscript submitted to Journal of Islamic Economy and Community Engagement is read by the editorial staff. Those manuscripts evaluated by editors to be inappropriate to journal criteria are rejected promptly without external review. Manuscripts evaluated to be of potential interest to our readership are sent to double-blind reviewers. Every manuscript is independently reviewed by at least two reviewers in the form of a "double-blind review". The editors then make a decision for publication based on the reviewer's recommendation from among several possibilities: Accept Submission, Revision Required, Resubmit for Review, and Decline Submission.

In certain cases, the editor may submit an article for review to another third reviewer before making a decision, if necessary.

The Editor-in-Chief of Journal of Islamic Economy and Community Engagement has the right to decide which manuscripts submitted to the journal should be published.
