Copyright Notice

This policy explains the rights and responsibilities associated with publication in el-Noorda: Interdisciplinary Journal of Qur’an and Hadith.

1. Copyright Ownership

Authors retain copyright in their articles. Publication in the journal does not require a transfer of copyright ownership to the publisher.

2. Publication Permission

As part of the publication agreement, authors grant the journal the right of first publication and non-exclusive permission to reproduce, distribute, display, and preserve the article. This permission includes producing publication formats and supplying article metadata to scholarly discovery services.

3. Public License

Articles published under this policy carry the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC BY 4.0). The applicable license should be displayed on the article landing page and in the published article file.

For previously published articles, users must consult the license attached to the particular article. This policy does not automatically replace an earlier license.

4. Author Responsibilities

• Ensure that all co-authors approve publication and the associated licensing terms.
• Confirm that the submission does not infringe another party’s rights.
• Identify borrowed material accurately and secure permission where required.
• Disclose material subject to separate licenses or restrictions.
• Notify the journal of any rights-related concern affecting the article.

5. Third-Party Material

Images, maps, photographs, translations, tables, and other third-party materials may be subject to separate rights. Authors must provide appropriate credit lines and identify any material excluded from the article’s public license.

The inclusion of a third-party work in an article does not by itself establish permission for all subsequent uses.

6. Subsequent Dissemination

Authors may deposit and share permitted versions of their articles in accordance with the journal’s self-archiving policy. Subsequent dissemination should identify the original publication and provide a link to the journal’s article page or DOI, where available.

7. Rights Enquiries

Questions concerning authorship of protected material, missing permissions, or the licensing status of a particular article should be directed to the editorial office.
