Article Processing Charge

Jurnal Multidisiplin dalam Islam implements an Article Processing Charge (APC) policy to support the sustainability of journal management and to maintain the quality of the editorial and peer-review processes. This policy is applied without reducing the journal’s commitment to open access, ensuring that all published articles remain freely accessible to readers.

1. Purpose of the APC

The Article Processing Charge (APC) is applied to support the sustainability of an open-access publishing system and to ensure high standards in the editorial and peer-review processes of a multidisciplinary journal within an Islamic perspective.

2. Open Access Compliance and Licensing

The journal is fully committed to the principles of open access:

  • All published articles are freely and openly accessible online.

  • All articles are published under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License (CC BY-SA 4.0).

  • This license permits the use, distribution, and adaptation of the work, provided that appropriate credit is given and derivative works are distributed under the same license.

  • This policy ensures global access to multidisciplinary research within Islamic studies.

3. Scope of APC Coverage

The APC is used to support various aspects of journal management, including:

  • Editorial management and administrative support

  • Peer-review and manuscript evaluation processes

  • Copyediting, layout, and digital publication

  • Long-term archiving and indexing services

4. Transparency and Notification

  • Information regarding the APC amount and payment procedures is clearly and transparently stated on the official journal website.

  • Authors will be informed of the applicable APC only after the manuscript has been accepted for publication.

  • Any updates or adjustments to the APC policy will be announced publicly and in a timely manner.

5. Fairness in Publication Decisions

The journal upholds the highest standards of academic ethics and integrity:

  • Publication decisions are based solely on the academic merit, originality, and scholarly contribution of the manuscript.

  • An author’s ability or inability to pay the APC does not influence editorial decisions.

  • The peer-review process is conducted objectively and independently.
