03. Editorial Independence

The journal's governance framework distinguishes publishing administration from scholarly evaluation. Editorial decisions must be based on academic merit, methodological quality, originality, relevance to the journal's scope, and ethical compliance. Financial contributions, institutional partnerships, and commercial considerations must not determine manuscript acceptance or rejection. Potential conflicts of interest must be disclosed and managed through appropriate editorial procedures.

04. Publisher Responsibilities

The publishing organization supports journal operations through administrative coordination, technical infrastructure, financial management, publication services, and digital accessibility. These responsibilities are separate from the independent scholarly assessment of submitted manuscripts.

The journal maintains publicly accessible information regarding publication charges, revenue sources, peer-review procedures, editorial responsibilities, and publishing policies to strengthen transparency and accountability.

05. Institutional Collaboration

Assyfa Journal of Islamic Studies promotes scholarly collaboration with academic institutions, researchers, and professional communities at national and international levels. Such collaborations support academic exchange, interdisciplinary research, and knowledge dissemination. Institutional collaboration does not automatically confer journal ownership, publishing authority, or editorial decision-making rights on participating organizations.

06. Financial Transparency

The journal provides information on its publication charges and financial sustainability through dedicated policy pages. Article Processing Charges and other financial arrangements must be communicated transparently to prospective authors. Payment of publication charges does not guarantee manuscript acceptance.
