Aims And Scope

The journal's mission is to advance legal scholarship by promoting high-quality, internationally relevant research that connects Islamic legal traditions with contemporary legal frameworks, thereby fostering scholarly discourse in criminal law, constitutional law, and related interdisciplinary fields. The journal invites original contributions from legal scholars, practitioners, and researchers globally, with a particular focus on comparative legal studies, the application of Islamic jurisprudence in modern contexts, and cross-cultural legal analysis that appeals to an international audience. The scope of the journal encompasses six primary areas of legal scholarship: Islamic Law and Jurisprudence, which includes classical and contemporary applications of Sharia principles within modern legal frameworks; Islamic Criminal Law (Jinayah), which examines criminal justice systems in Islamic legal contexts and their interactions with secular criminal law; Islamic Constitutional Law, which addresses governance principles, state theory, and constitutional frameworks from Islamic perspectives; Comparative Criminal and Customary Law, which analyzes diverse criminal justice systems and traditional legal practices across cultures; Constitutional and Administrative Law, which focuses on governance structures, public administration, and constitutional interpretation in contemporary states; and International Humanitarian Law and Public International Law, which includes cross-border legal issues, human rights, and international legal cooperation.
