Plagiarism Policy

  1. The journal is strongly against any act of unethical copying or plagiarism. Plagiarism is said to occur when a significant portion of the manuscript has been copied from a previously published resource. All manuscripts submitted for publication to Fikrotuna: Journal of Islamic Education and Management were double-checked for plagiarism using Turnitin software.
  2. Plagiarism is the unethical act of copying someone else's ideas, processes, results, or words without explicitly acknowledging the original author and source. Plagiarism itself occurs when an author uses a significant portion of his or her previously published work without using appropriate references. This can include publishing the same manuscript in multiple journals or modifying a previously published manuscript with some new data.
  3. Manuscripts that are found to contain more than 20% plagiarism at the initial stage of review will be immediately rejected and will not be considered for publication in the journal. If a manuscript is identified as plagiarised after publication, the Editor-in-Chief will conduct a preliminary investigation, which may involve assistance from the relevant committee.
  4. If the manuscript is found to be plagiarised beyond acceptable limits, the journal will contact the author's Institute/College/University and Funding Agency, if any. The determination of offence will direct Fikrotuna: Journal of Islamic Education and Management to run a two-way link online to and from the original paper to note the plagiarism and reference the plagiarised material.
  5. Papers containing plagiarism will also be flagged on each PDF page. After determining the level of plagiarism, the paper may also be officially withdrawn.
