Dear Colleague,
As the Journal of Islamic Architecture continues to strengthen its scientific standards and global visibility, we are refining our editorial screening process.

Beginning in April 2026, manuscripts will undergo enhanced initial assessment focusing on novelty, methodological robustness, contemporary literature engagement, and broader scientific relevance.

Studies that are primarily descriptive, limited in scope, or lacking sufficient analytical rigor may not be sent for external peer review.

We appreciate your continued trust in JIA and look forward to receiving high-quality contributions.
