Post-Publication Discussions

The Journal places great importance on fostering open dialogue and meaningful engagement with its readership. We recognize that scholarly communication does not end with publication; rather, it is invigorated by ongoing conversations and critical reflections. Post-publication feedback not only refines our collective understanding of the issues at hand but also drives the field forward by highlighting new questions, offering alternative interpretations, and identifying opportunities for future research. By encouraging readers to engage with authors and editors alike, we aim to cultivate a dynamic academic environment in which ideas can be rigorously tested and enriched.

Readers who wish to share insights, pose questions, or offer constructive critiques on any article published in JIELariba are warmly invited to do so. Comments may be sent directly to the Editor-in-Chief using the contact details listed on our website; each submission is carefully reviewed and, where appropriate, shared with the original author for response. In addition, we support the use of external, community-driven platforms such as PubPeer, which facilitate transparent, public discussions. PubPeer’s model allows scholars from around the globe to comment on methodological approaches, data interpretation, and theoretical implications—thereby broadening the conversation beyond our own editorial channels.

Looking ahead, the journal is committed to making post-publication discourse even more accessible and user-friendly. We are actively developing a built-in commenting feature on the journal website, allowing registered users to leave annotations and remarks directly alongside the article text. This interactive tool will enable readers to engage in threaded discussions, receive notifications of author replies, and track the evolution of ideas in real time. By integrating these capabilities, we seek to lower barriers to participation and transform our site into a vibrant hub for scholarly exchange.

Ultimately, the editorial team of the journal believes that sustaining a culture of open critique and collaborative inquiry is essential to the integrity and relevance of academic publishing. We encourage all members of our community—whether established researchers, early-career scholars, or practitioners—to join these conversations, share their expertise, and collectively advance the field of Islamic economics. Your contributions are invaluable to enriching the discourse and shaping the future of our discipline.
