Article Processing Charge

Living Islam: The Journal of Islamic Discourses does not require any fee at the submission stage. Authors whose manuscripts are rejected or withdrawn prior to acceptance are not subject to any charge. To sustain open-access publication and ensure the continuity of editorial and publishing services, an Article Processing Charge is applied only after a manuscript has been formally accepted following the peer-review process.

The APC is used to support journal management, peer-review administration, manuscript editing, layout and typesetting, website operation, indexing-related preparation, and long-term digital archiving. Payment of the APC is strictly separated from the editorial decision-making process and does not influence peer-review results, editorial judgment, or manuscript acceptance.
