MANARUL ILMI: Journal of Islamic Studies is committed to upholding the highest integrity and academic honesty standards. We take plagiarism and other forms of research misconduct very seriously. This policy outlines our approach to detecting and handling plagiarism.

Plagiarism occurs when an author uses someone else's work, ideas, or words without appropriate attribution or permission. This includes, but is not limited to:

     b. Paraphrasing or rephrasing someone else's work without proper attribution.

     c. Using ideas or data from another source without acknowledgement.

     d. Submitting work that is not the author's own.

Similarity Index

All submitted manuscripts will be screened for plagiarism using [Name of Plagiarism Detection Software]. The maximum acceptable similarity index is 25%. Manuscripts that exceed this threshold will be rejected.

Screening Process

  1. Initial Screening: Upon submission, each manuscript will be checked for plagiarism using [Name of Plagiarism Detection Software].
