The Journal of Islamic Law is an international, peer-reviewed journal published by the Institut Agama Islam Negeri (IAIN) Pontianak. First issued on February 25, 2020, this journal is dedicated to publishing original, high-quality scholarship on Islamic law and its interaction with society across diverse global contexts. It advances scholarly debates and critical inquiry into how Islamic law is interpreted, negotiated, institutionalized, contested, and practiced within contemporary social, political, economic, and cultural settings, with particular emphasis on socio-legal, empirical, interdisciplinary, and multidisciplinary approaches. The journal welcomes contributions from scholars and researchers across various fields of Islamic legal studies, including Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh) and fatwa studies, Islamic family law, Islamic economic law, Islamic criminal law, Islamic constitutional law, and contemporary issues in Islamic law and society. Priority is given to manuscripts that provide critical, theoretically informed, and methodologically rigorous analyses.
