The Journal of Islamic Education, Knowledge, and Institutional Dynamics, published by Bentala Institute, adheres to the highest standards of academic integrity and ethics. As such, the journal has a zero-tolerance policy towards plagiarism, which is defined as the unauthorized use or reproduction of another author's work, whether in part or in whole.

In accordance with the guidelines set forth by the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE), the journal employs a rigorous plagiarism detection process to ensure the originality and authenticity of all submitted manuscripts. This process involves the use of specialized software to identify instances of plagiarism, as well as a thorough review of each manuscript by the editorial team and peer reviewers.

The journal's plagiarism policy is based on the following principles:

• Originality: All manuscripts submitted to the journal must be original and may not have been previously published or be under consideration for publication elsewhere.
• Proper citation: Authors must properly cite all sources used in their research, including direct quotes, paraphrased text, and ideas.
• Double-blind review: The journal uses a double-blind review process, where both the authors and reviewers remain anonymous to ensure unbiased and impartial evaluation of manuscripts.
• CC-BY license: The journal is published under a Creative Commons Attribution (CC-BY) license, which allows for the free use, sharing, and adaptation of published articles, provided that the original author and source are properly cited.

Any instances of plagiarism detected during the review process will result in immediate rejection of the manuscript. In cases where plagiarism is discovered after publication, the journal will take appropriate action, including but not limited to, issuing a correction or retraction notice, and may also impose penalties on the authors, such as a ban on future submissions.

By submitting a manuscript to the Journal of Islamic Education, Knowledge, and Institutional Dynamics, authors acknowledge that they have read and understood the journal's plagiarism policy and agree to abide by its principles.
