Guidelines for Contributors

Peshawar Islamicus is a bi-annual trilingual (Arabic, English,

Urdu) research journal of Islamic Studies of the University of

Peshawar, Pakistan launched in January 2010. The journal

welcomes original contributions of researchers in all branches

of Islamic Studies in the widest sense. Contributors will be

required to guarantee that the manuscript presented to Peshawar

Islamicus has not been submitted to any other journal for

publication and is free of plagiarism.

Manuscript’s Presentation and Submission

1. Manuscript should be of 5,000 to 8, 000 words in length

including the abstract and all citations written on A-4 size paper

in 12 point Garamond font with single space and 1 inch

margins, saved in MS-Word 97 format. Notes referred to in the

text should be typed in the same font size, numbered and

provided at the end of the article.

2. The first page of the submission should include title of the

article, the author’s name, institutional affiliation, and email

address. The pages of the typescript should be numbered in

consecutive sequence.

3. Abstracts of no more than 200 words summarizing the

primary argument(s) and finding(s) in the article should be

included at the beginning of the article.

4. Two copies of the manuscript are required to be submitted,

preferably along with its CD or sent by E-mail.

5. It is assumed that the manuscripts submitted to Peshawar

Islamicus are not under consideration for publication elsewhere.

References

References should be numbered consecutively. In general, all

citations should follow the Chicago Manual of Style. The use of

op. cit. is to be avoided. Quoted material should have full

location reference.

Loanwords and Foreign Words

Loanwords accepted in English usage should be spelled in

accordance with the standard dictionaries. Other foreign words

must conform to the transliteration system shown in the

transliteration table of the Peshawar Islamicus, which is based

Vol. 5, Issue 2, July-December, 2014

on that used by Islamic Studies (Islamabad) except for Pashto.

Copyright

Publication of material in Peshawar Islamicus means that the

author assigns all copyrights to the journal including the rights

to electronic publishing and fulfilling the third party request for

dissemination of knowledge.

Editing

Manuscripts meriting review will be read anonymously, usually

by two referees. In most instances, authors can expect decisions

on their work within 120 days. Because manuscripts receive

expert review, and because the Editorial Board of Peshawar

Islamicus is international in scope, this time may vary. The

Journal retains the right to make changes in accepted

manuscripts that (in the opinion of the editor) do not

substantially alter meaning as well as for grammatical, stylistic

and space considerations. Responsibility for the opinions

expressed in the articles and for the accuracy of the stated facts

however rests solely with the author(s) and not with the Editor/

Editorial Board.

Free Subscription:

Authors of papers in the journal will be entitled to free

subscription of the journal for one year.

Books/ Journals for Review

Peshawar Islamicus encourages books/journals for

consideration of review.
