About the Journal
Althera: International Journal for Islamic Justice and Legal Thought is a peer-reviewed academic journal committed to advancing scholarly discourse on Islamic law, justice, and legal reasoning in contemporary societies. The journal provides a dynamic platform for critical, interdisciplinary, and normative inquiries into the theory and practice of Islamic legal traditions in global and local contexts.
Althera seeks to explore the ethical foundations, philosophical underpinnings, and practical implications of Islamic law, while engaging constructively with modern challenges in areas such as social justice, gender equity, constitutionalism, legal reform, and human rights. The journal welcomes submissions from diverse methodologies and perspectives, including comparative law, fiqh studies, maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah, legal sociology, and Islamic legal philosophy.
Published biannually, Althera invites contributions from scholars, researchers, and practitioners around the world who are interested in rethinking justice and legality within the framework of Islamic traditions and contemporary legal realities.
