Withdrawal of Manuscript
Once submitted to Al-Daulah, authors may withdraw a manuscript only for compelling reasons.
Authors are not permitted to withdraw a submitted or published manuscript unless there are compelling reasons. Withdrawal wastes the considerable time that editors and reviewers spend processing a manuscript, as well as the work invested by the publisher.
Withdrawing to publish elsewhere is unethical.
Withdrawing a submitted or published manuscript from Al-Daulah because another journal has accepted of breaches publication ethics. Authors must not submit the same manuscript to more than one journal at a time.
