Pase: Journal of Contemporary Islamic Education is committed to maintaining academic integrity and ensuring the originality of all published articles. Plagiarism, including the unauthorized use of another person's ideas, words, data, or scholarly work without proper acknowledgment, is strictly prohibited.
All submitted manuscripts are subject to a similarity check using Turnitin before proceeding to the peer-review process. The maximum acceptable similarity index is 25%. Manuscripts with a similarity index exceeding 25% may be returned to the authors for revision or rejected, depending on the extent and nature of the identified similarities.
Authors are responsible for ensuring that their manuscripts are original, properly cited, and free from plagiarism and other forms of academic misconduct. All sources, including direct quotations, paraphrased ideas, data, and previously published works, must be appropriately acknowledged in accordance with accepted academic citation standards.
The similarity index generated by Turnitin is used as an initial screening tool and does not, by itself, constitute definitive evidence of plagiarism. The editorial team will carefully evaluate the similarity report to distinguish legitimate similarities, such as references, properly cited quotations, and commonly used academic terminology, from potentially problematic textual overlap.
If plagiarism or other forms of publication misconduct are identified before publication, the editorial team may request revisions, reject the manuscript, or take other appropriate action based on the seriousness of the violation. If plagiarism is discovered after publication, the journal may issue a correction, retract the published article, or implement other measures in accordance with its publication ethics policies.
By submitting a manuscript to Pase: Journal of Contemporary Islamic Education, authors acknowledge and agree to comply with this plagiarism policy and uphold the principles of academic integrity and responsible scholarly publishing.
