Publication Frequency
AKSEN Journal of Contemporary Islamic Law (AJCIL)
AJCIL is published biannually (twice a year), with issues released in:
- January (Issue 1)
- July (Issue 2)
Issue Cycle
| Issue | Publication Month | Indicative Submission Deadline* |
|---|---|---|
| Vol. X, No. 1 | January | [Placeholder: e.g., 30 September of the preceding year] |
| Vol. X, No. 2 | July | [Placeholder: e.g., 31 March of the same year] |
*Deadlines are indicative cut-offs for a manuscript to realistically complete review, revision, and production in time for the target issue; AJCIL otherwise accepts submissions on a rolling/continuous basis throughout the year, with accepted articles assigned to the next available issue.
Notes
- Volume numbering begins with Volume 1 in the journal's first year of publication; each volume comprises two issues (January and July).
- [Placeholder: confirm whether AJCIL will use "continuous/online-first publication" — i.e., publishing accepted articles individually online as soon as they are ready, ahead of their formal compilation into the January or July issue — or a fixed-batch release model where all articles in an issue go live simultaneously. Many journals with biannual print/PDF issues use online-first release to reduce publication lag.]
- Special or thematic issues, if introduced in the future, would be announced separately and would not replace the regular January/July cycle unless the editorial board decides otherwise.
