Copyright & License

The Journal of Islamic Economics and Business (JIEB) supports the responsible dissemination and reuse of scholarly research. This policy explains copyright ownership, the publication rights granted to the journal, and the terms under which published articles may be accessed, shared, and adapted.

JIEB publishes its articles under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International (CC BY-SA 4.0) License, subject to any specific rights notices that may apply to individual materials.

1. Copyright Ownership

Authors retain copyright in their published articles unless a separate written agreement or applicable legal requirement provides otherwise.

By submitting a manuscript to JIEB and proceeding with publication, authors are responsible for ensuring that they have the rights necessary to publish the work and authorize its distribution under the journal's applicable publication and licensing terms.

Authors grant JIEB the rights necessary to publish, reproduce, distribute, display, and make the article available as part of the journal's scholarly record. This arrangement does not, by itself, mean that copyright ownership is transferred from the authors to the journal.

Copyright in third-party materials incorporated into an article may remain with their respective rights holders. Such materials are subject to their own copyright terms, permissions, and attribution requirements where applicable.

2. Open License: CC BY-SA 4.0

Articles published by JIEB are licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International (CC BY-SA 4.0) license.

This license permits users to copy, redistribute, remix, transform, and build upon the published material for any purpose, including commercial purposes, provided that they comply with the license terms.

Key License Requirements

Attribution: Users must give appropriate credit to the original author(s), provide a reference to the source, include a link to the license, and indicate whether changes were made, where applicable.
ShareAlike: If users remix, transform, or build upon the material, they must distribute their contributions under the same license or a compatible license as permitted by CC BY-SA 4.0.
No additional restrictions: Users may not apply legal terms or technological measures that legally restrict others from exercising the rights granted by the license.

The license does not remove the obligation to respect applicable laws, privacy rights, moral rights, or third-party rights that may apply to particular content.

3. Rights and Responsibilities of Authors

Authors are responsible for ensuring that their submitted manuscripts and all materials included in them can lawfully be published and distributed.

Authors are expected to:

Ensure that the manuscript is their original work or that all reused material is appropriately attributed and authorized.
Obtain permission where necessary to reproduce copyrighted figures, tables, images, instruments, or other third-party materials.
Provide accurate attribution and acknowledge the original sources of material used in the article.
Disclose any applicable copyright or licensing restrictions affecting content included in the manuscript.
Ensure that co-authors have approved the submission and that the necessary rights to publish the work have been secured.

Authors should not include material in their articles in a way that infringes the rights of other individuals or organizations. Where permission is required, authors should obtain it before publication and retain evidence of permission when appropriate.

4. Rights of Readers and Other Users

Readers, researchers, educators, practitioners, and other users may access and reuse JIEB articles in accordance with the CC BY-SA 4.0 license.

Permitted uses may include:

Downloading, printing, and sharing articles with others.
Using articles for teaching, research, and academic discussion.
Reproducing material in presentations, reports, and other scholarly works.
Translating, adapting, or incorporating material into new works, subject to the license requirements.
Redistributing material through repositories, websites, and other platforms in accordance with the license.

Users must provide appropriate attribution and comply with the ShareAlike requirement when distributing adaptations. They should also verify whether any particular figure, image, dataset, or other component is excluded from the article's general license or carries separate rights conditions.

5. Third-Party Materials and Permissions

Authors are responsible for identifying material in their manuscripts that belongs to third parties and for obtaining any permissions required for publication and reuse.

Where material is reproduced under permission or a separate license, the article should include an appropriate credit line or rights statement when necessary. The CC BY-SA 4.0 license applicable to an article should not be assumed to cover third-party material that is expressly excluded or subject to separate terms.

Users who wish to reuse excluded material must comply with the applicable rights and obtain permission from the relevant rights holder when required.

6. Sharing and Repository Deposit

Consistent with the journal's open-access approach and the applicable license, authors and other users may share and redistribute published articles through appropriate academic, institutional, or public platforms, provided that the license terms are respected.

When sharing or depositing an article, users should preserve the article's bibliographic information, identify the original publication in JIEB, and include the DOI or article URL where available. The applicable CC BY-SA 4.0 license should also be clearly identified.

Authors and readers should distinguish the version of record published by JIEB from any earlier manuscript version and should not imply that an independently shared version has been endorsed by the journal unless such endorsement has been expressly granted.

7. Copyright Concerns and Infringement

JIEB takes copyright and intellectual property concerns seriously. Authors, rights holders, and other concerned parties may contact the editorial office if they believe that published material infringes copyright or has been used without appropriate authorization.

Reports should identify the article or material concerned, explain the nature of the issue, and provide supporting information or evidence where available.

The editorial team will assess the concern and may request clarification, supporting documentation, or evidence of permission from the relevant parties. Where necessary, the journal may take appropriate action in accordance with its publication policies and applicable legal requirements.

Depending on the circumstances, actions may include correcting rights information, adding or amending attribution, requesting permission documentation, issuing a correction, or taking other appropriate editorial measures. Any action will be determined on the basis of the available evidence and the nature of the concern.
