Author Guidelines

Manuscript Structure

Arrange the manuscript in the following order:

1. 1

   Title

   العنوان

   Informative and concise, 12–15 words, without formulas or abbreviations. Written in English, and also in the language of the article if it is not English.

2. 2

   Author Names

   أسماء المؤلفين

   Not written in the manuscript (double-blind review). During submission, at the "Enter Metadata" step, add every author under List of Contributors: full name without academic degrees or titles, in the correct author order, and mark the corresponding author.

3. 3

   Affiliation

   الانتماء المؤسسي

   Also entered in OJS, not in the manuscript. For each contributor, fill in institution, country, email, and ORCID iD completely. These data are printed in the published article exactly as entered.

4. 4

   Abstract

   الملخص

   One paragraph of 150–250 words in English, followed by an abstract in the language of the article (Indonesian or Arabic). It states the background, objectives, method, main results, conclusion, and contribution of the study.

5. 5

   Keywords

   الكلمات المفتاحية

   3–5 words or phrases in English, written in alphabetical order.

6. 6

   Introduction

   المقدمة

   Around 1,000 words: background, research problem, significance, a brief review of directly related studies, and a closing paragraph that states the research objectives.

7. 7

   Literature Review Optional

   الدراسات السابقة

   May be added as a separate section when needed.

8. 8

   Research Method

   منهج البحث

   The approach, data sources, participants or corpus, instruments, procedures, and data analysis, described clearly enough for the study to be repeated.

9. 9

   Results and Discussion

   النتائج والمناقشة

   Analyzed data (not raw data) that answer the research questions, supported by tables or figures where useful. Each finding is interpreted (why?) and compared with previous studies (what else?).

10. 10

    Conclusion

    الخاتمة

    Answers to the research questions in flowing paragraphs, without statistical sentences or methodological jargon. May include implications and suggestions for further research.

    المراجع

    Managed with Mendeley, Zotero, or EndNote, in APA style.

• Use simple open tables without vertical lines. Save figures as clear JPG or PNG files of moderate size.
• Use sub-headings in Results and Discussion to follow the research questions.
• Translate quotations and terms from local or foreign languages into the language of the article.
