Aims and Scope

Aim

Journal of Islamic Numerical Science focuses on the study, development, and application of numerical, mathematical, and computational approaches within Islamic sciences. The journal emphasizes the integration between traditional Islamic knowledge and contemporary quantitative methods, including digital transformation.

Scope

The scope of the journal includes, but is not limited to, three main areas. First, quantitative calculations in Islamic Inheritance Law (faraid) and Islamic Astronomy (‘ilm al-falak), covering methods, models, and computational techniques in inheritance distribution, determination of prayer times, qibla direction, and lunar calendar calculations. Second, legal thought and juristic reasoning in faraid and falak, including studies on istinbat al-ahkam, doctrinal analysis, and the development of legal interpretations related to numerical and measurement-based aspects. Third, historical development of faraid and falak, encompassing the evolution of theories, methodologies, and scholarly traditions from classical to contemporary periods.

In addition, the journal accommodates studies on digitalization and computational Islam, including the development of software, applications, and decision-support systems related to faraid and falak, as part of the broader effort to advance Islamic numerical sciences in the modern era.
