The journal serves as a scholarly platform for disseminating original research and academic contributions in guidance and counseling, particularly Islamic guidance and counseling.

2. Journal Management

The journal is managed by an editorial team consisting of the Editor-in-Chief, editors, and other editorial personnel in accordance with the journal's organisational structure. The editorial team is responsible for coordinating manuscript submissions, conducting initial editorial assessments, managing the peer-review process, communicating editorial decisions, and ensuring that accepted manuscripts meet the journal's scholarly and publication standards.

The editorial team is supported by peer reviewers who provide independent assessments of manuscript quality, originality, methodological rigour, relevance, and contribution to the field of guidance and counseling. Reviewers provide recommendations to support editorial decision-making but do not make the final publication decision.

Decisions are made independently by the responsible editors and are not determined by the personal interests, institutional affiliations, academic positions, or external preferences of authors or other parties.

The publisher provides the institutional framework for the journal's operation, while editorial decisions remain the responsibility of the editorial team. No individual or institution should interfere with editorial evaluations for reasons unrelated to scholarly quality, research integrity, and the journal's established policies.
