General guidelines

Authors are encouraged to present an original, scholarly contribution, or a
perceptive restructuring of existing knowledge. The journal also welcomes
translations and bibliographies, provided they meet Al-'Arabiyya guidelines.
Translations should be scholarly and accompanied by an introduction or
critical essay, annotations, and commentaries. Bibliographies should also be
annotated, critical, and accompanied by an appropriate introduction.
Translations and bibliographies are subject to the same review process as
articles.

Book reviews are commissioned by the book review editor. Reviews of current
and recently published textbooks are particularly welcome. Please propose a
book review to the book review editor prior to submission at
aatabookrevieweditor at aataweb.org.
