Correction

Mu'amalah: Jurnal Hukum Ekonomi Syariah should consider issuing a correction if:

• A small part of an otherwise reliable publication reports flawed data or proves misleading, mainly if this results from honest error.
• The Author or Contributor list is incorrect (e.g., a deserving author has been omitted, or someone who does not meet authorship criteria has been included).

Corrections to peer-reviewed content fall into one of three categories:

• Publisher correction (typo): to notify readers of a critical error made by publishing/journal staff (usually a production error) that hurts the publication record, the scientific integrity of the article, or the reputation of the Authors or the journal.
• Author correction (corrigendum): to notify readers of a critical error made by the Authors that negatively impact the publication record, the scientific integrity of the article, or the reputation of the Authors or the journal.
• Addendum: an addition to the article by its Authors to explain inconsistencies, expand the existing work, or otherwise explain or update the information in the main work.

The decision to issue a correction is made by the journal's Editor(s), sometimes with advice from Reviewers or Editorial Board members. Handling Editors will contact the paper's authors with a request for clarification, but the final decision about whether a correction is required and which type rests with the editors.

Article Removal

In a minimal number of cases, removing a published article from our online platform may be necessary. It will only happen if an article is defamatory or infringes others' legal rights, or where the article is, or we have good reason to expect that it will be, the subject of a court order, or where the article if acted upon, may pose a severe health risk. In such circumstances, while the article's metadata (i.e., title and author information) will be retained, the text will be replaced with a screen indicating that the article has been removed for legal reasons.

Article Replacement

In cases where an article, if acted upon, may pose a severe health risk, the original paper's authors may wish to retract the flawed original and replace it with a corrected version. Under such circumstances, the above procedures for retraction will be followed with the difference that the article retraction notice will contain a link to the corrected re-published article and a history of the document.
