The Journal of Islamic Education, Knowledge, and Institutional Dynamics is an open-access journal that operates under the principles of transparency, accountability, and fairness. As part of our commitment to these principles, we charge an Article Processing Charge (APC) to authors whose manuscripts have been accepted for publication.

The APC is a one-time fee that covers the costs associated with the publication process, including peer review, editing, formatting, and online hosting. The APC for the Journal of Islamic Education, Knowledge, and Institutional Dynamics is $500, which is payable by the author or their institution upon acceptance of their manuscript.

We believe that the APC is a necessary step in ensuring the long-term sustainability of our journal, while also maintaining the highest standards of quality and integrity. Our APC is competitive with other open-access journals in the field, and we offer a range of discounts and waivers to authors who may be unable to pay the full fee.

The following are the key points regarding our APC policy:

• APC amount: $500 per accepted manuscript
• Payment terms: payable upon acceptance of manuscript
• Discounts and waivers: available to authors from low-income countries, students, and authors who are experiencing financial hardship
• Licenses: all articles are published under a Creative Commons Attribution (CC-BY) license, which allows for the free reuse and distribution of the article
• Peer review: all manuscripts undergo a rigorous double-blind peer review process to ensure the highest standards of quality and integrity

We are committed to transparency and accountability in our APC policy, and we adhere to the principles of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE). We believe that our APC policy is fair, reasonable, and necessary to ensure the long-term sustainability of our journal.
