Bulletin of Islamic Research (E-ISSN: 3031-4526) is an international, open-access, double-blind peer-reviewed journal committed to advancing interdisciplinary scholarship on the dynamic interaction between Islamic texts, intellectual traditions, and lived Muslim experiences in addressing contemporary global challenges. The journal's editorial identity is Interdisciplinary Studies on Islamic Texts, Lived Islam, and Contemporary Muslim Societies, providing a platform for rigorous and innovative research that bridges classical Islamic scholarship with contemporary academic inquiry. The journal welcomes original research articles employing textual, historical, empirical, digital, and interdisciplinary approaches that contribute to a deeper understanding of Islam as both an intellectual tradition and a lived social reality. It encourages contributions from scholars across diverse fields of Islamic Studies and related disciplines, particularly those examining the interpretation of Islamic texts, the development of Islamic intellectual traditions, the dynamics of Muslim societies, and Islamic responses to emerging global issues. Bulletin of Islamic Research is published quarterly in March, June, September, and December. The journal is committed to ensuring a timely, rigorous, and transparent publication process, enabling high-quality research to be disseminated efficiently to the global academic community. It seeks to foster scholarly dialogue, promote methodological diversity, and encourage interdisciplinary perspectives that advance contemporary Islamic Studies at both regional and international levels. To maintain the highest standards of academic integrity, the journal adopts a double-blind peer-review process in which the identities of both authors and reviewers remain anonymous throughout the review process. Authors are therefore required to prepare their manuscripts in a manner that removes all identifying information to ensure an impartial and objective evaluation.
