Advertising Policy
The Journal of Contemporary Islamic Law and Studies (JCILS) maintains a clear separation between editorial content and any advertising or sponsorship.
1. Editorial Independence
All editorial decisions are made independently of any advertising, sponsorship, or commercial interests.
The presence of advertisements does not influence the peer-review process, editorial decisions, or publication outcomes.
2. Advertising Content
JCILS may accept limited advertisements that are:
- Relevant to academic, educational, or scholarly activities
- Appropriate for the journal’s scope and audience
- Not misleading, deceptive, or unethical
Advertisements related to political, religious propaganda (outside academic discourse), or commercial products unrelated to scholarly activities are not accepted.
3. Transparency and Identification
All advertisements must be clearly distinguishable from editorial content.
Advertisements will be labeled appropriately to avoid any confusion with peer-reviewed articles.
4. No Endorsement
The publication of advertisements does not imply endorsement or recommendation by JCILS, its editors, or its publisher.
5. Online Advertising
For the journal website:
- Advertisements (if any) will be displayed in designated areas only
- They will not interfere with article readability or user experience
- No intrusive formats (e.g., pop-ups, auto-play media) will be used
6. Ethical Standards
All advertisements must comply with applicable ethical and legal standards.
JCILS reserves the right to reject or remove any advertisement that does not meet these standards.
