We provide a timeline for academicians, scholars, researchers, and students from Indonesia and other countries to submit original research. Once a submission has been completed, the manuscript will be screened by our in-house editorial committee. Based on the committee's report, we usually proceed with the peer-review process, or reject it within one month; if the decision is to 'proceed', we usually decide within three months. The reviewers provide their feedback on the manuscript by filling in a detailed review report which also has a descriptive component. While important consideration is given to reviewers' feedback, the final decision to publish articles in Al-AQAD rests with the Editor-in-Chief. We will publish 20 accepted articles in two issues (August and November) in each volume.
