Generative AI Policy

Usriyyāt: Indonesian Journal of Islamic Family Law acknowledges that Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) and AI-assisted technologies may offer benefits in academic writing and editorial processes. To maintain transparency and uphold scholarly integrity, any use of GenAI in the preparation, writing, analysis, translation, or editing of a manuscript must be clearly disclosed within the article. Authors remain fully accountable for the accuracy, originality, argumentation, citations, and ethical integrity of their manuscripts, irrespective of any AI involvement.

Permitted Use of AI-Assisted Tools

Usriyyāt permits the limited use of AI-assisted tools strictly for the following purposes:

  • Assistance with language editing, grammar checking, and translation.
  • Data visualization that neither generates nor manipulates research findings.

All AI-assisted tools must be used under human supervision. Authors are required to carefully review and edit all AI-generated outputs, as such tools may produce content that appears authoritative but is inaccurate, incomplete, or biased. Authors bear full responsibility for the content of their work. Under no circumstances may GenAI technologies be credited as authors.

Prohibited Uses of Generative AI

The following activities are strictly prohibited:

  • Using GenAI to generate scientific content, arguments, literature reviews, data, or data analyses without proper disclosure.
  • Including fabricated or inaccurate references or citations generated by AI.
  • Employing GenAI in the peer review process, editorial decision-making, or the handling of confidential manuscript materials.

Disclosure Requirements

Authors must disclose the use of generative AI or AI-assisted technologies in the writing process by including a statement at the end of the manuscript upon initial submission. This statement will appear in the published version of the article and should be placed in a separate section before the references. The required format is as follows:

Section Title: Generative AI Usage Statement

Statement: During the preparation of this work, the author(s) utilized [NAME OF TOOL/SERVICE] for [PURPOSE]. After using this tool/service, the author(s) thoroughly reviewed the content and made all necessary edits, thereby assuming full responsibility for the final version of the published article.

This declaration is not required for the use of basic tools such as grammar or spelling checkers and reference management software. If no generative AI or AI-assisted technologies have been used, no statement is required.

Note: Usriyyāt: Indonesian Journal of Islamic Family Law reserves the right to reject, retract, or request revisions of manuscripts that contain undisclosed or unethical use of GenAI or AI-generated content. This policy may be updated in accordance with international publishing standards and recommendations from Scopus and COPE.
