About the Journal

This journal includes textual studies and field studies with various perspectives on law, philosophy, Sufism, history, art, theology, and more. The demands for publication by the higher education academic community have had a considerable impact on the awareness of academics of the importance of conducting studies, research and writing scientific papers. The development of scientific works in Indonesia is relatively better, especially since the enactment of government regulations, which require undergraduate, postgraduate to doctoral students to write articles in scientific journals as one of the prerequisites for graduation. Academics, of course, are increasingly demanding to actively write in scientific journals both at the nationally accredited level and in reputable international journals.

Thus, Indonesian and non-Indonesian scholars have enriched the studies published in the journal. Although not from the start, Maslahah has presented quality scientific articles, ranging from improvements in format, style, and academic quality. Now with articles written in Indonesian, Arabic and English and with fair peer-review procedures, Maslahah continues to publish research and studies related to Islamic studies with various dimensions and approaches.

Maslahah Journal of Islamic Studies, published twice a year, always places Islam and Muslims as the main focus of academic inquiry and invites any comprehensive observation of Islam as a theological belief and system of society and Muslims for those who practice the religion. This journal, functioning as a forum for Islamic studies in Indonesia and other parts of the world in challenging local and global contexts, supports studies focused on specific themes and interdisciplinary studies. Almaslahah has become a medium for diffusion and exchange of ideas and research findings, so that researchers, writers, and readers from various learning traditions have interacted scientifically.
