Technical Guidelines

1. Quotation
   • The quotation in the manuscript should not be too long.
   • Direct quotations of less than five lines are written italics between complete quotation marks within the paragraph.
   • Direct quotations of five lines or more are written in separate paragraphs without quotation marks. The writing position is given a straight indent with the first line of the paragraph.
   • Indirect quotation, namely quoting a text which is abstracted and written in its own sentence, is written as part of a paragraph without quotation marks. It is better to use this kind of quotation within the manuscript.
   • Excerpts from the Qur'an and Hadith are written in Arabic letters according to the original text, including punctuation, using Font Times New Arabic 16 in bold. The verses of the Qur'an are written complete with the name and number of the surah and the number of the verse, while the Hadith is written complete with the sanadand comes with a footnote containing: Name of the book, volume, chapter, hadith number, and page.
   • In particular, the quotation of incomplete verses of the Qur'an, given three-dot marks before and/or after. Example:
   • حَنِيفًا ۚ فِطْرَتَ اللَّهِ الَّتِي فَطَرَ النَّاسَ عَلَيْهَا ۚ لَا تَبْدِيلَ لِخَلْقِ اللَّهِ ۚ ذَٰلِكَ الدِّينُ الْقَيِّمُ… …
   • There is no need for footnotes to quote verses from the Al-Quran because the name and number of the surah, as well as the verse number, have been written in the verse being quoted.

Books edited by editors are followed by "ed." without brackets after writing the name. If the book is written without a publisher city, type "n.c."; without publisher type "n.p."; if without the publication year, type "n.d.". If the publication year is Hijriyah year, type "H." after the mention of the year.
   • Article: Author name [without rank and title], Article title, Journal or publication name and edition in italics, (If applicable: Publisher place / city: Publisher name, Year published, page number).
   • If you want to mention the previous source again, you must mention part of the author's name and followed by the part of the book name in question. The reference source comes from Arabic, written in Latin characters based on transliteration guidelines by changing the font to Times New Arabic 14.

3. Figure and Table

   • Tables should present new information rather than duplicating what is in the text. Readers must be able to interpret tables without references to the text. Please provide an editable file.
   • The table size should fit the column width. 
   • Each table and figure must be quoted in the text in numerical order using Arabic numerals (eg Figure 2 cannot be cited before Figure 1). Tables shall be referred to as "Table" and figures/images as "Figure". Place table headings over tables and image captions on below, indicating them with lowercase letters or super asterisks (for significance values ​​and other statistical data). Express parts of the figure in lowercase (eg Figure 1a, Table 1b). These letters must also be embedded in the image. Tables and numbers must be numbered with Arabic numerals.
   • Each table and figure should have a title or description, which should be concise but clear enough to describe its main components separately from the text. All figures and tables must be quoted sequentially in the text. If the table or figure contains previously published material, cite the original source at the end of the description. If the result is expressed as a percentage, state the absolute value that corresponds to 100%. Please indicate in the description if the numbers have been changed or increased in any way.
4. Extras
