Revision Guide for Author

Al-Tarbawi Al-Haditsah: Jurnal Pendidikan Islam requires authors to revise their manuscripts based on reviewers’ and editors’ comments to ensure the quality and academic integrity of published articles.

1. General Principles

Authors are expected to:

Revise the manuscript carefully and thoroughly based on all reviewer and editor comments
Maintain academic integrity and clarity in all revisions
Ensure that revisions improve the quality, readability, and contribution of the manuscript

2. Revision Procedure

Authors should follow these steps when revising their manuscript:

Read All Comments Carefully
Review all feedback from reviewers and editors before making revisions.
Revise the Manuscript
Make necessary changes in the manuscript, including content, structure, language, and references.
Highlight Changes
Clearly indicate all revisions in the manuscript (using track changes, highlights, or colored text).
Prepare a Response to Reviewers
Provide a detailed response to each reviewer comment in a separate document.
Resubmit the Revised Manuscript
Upload the revised file along with the response document through the journal submission system.

3. Response to Reviewers

Authors must prepare a Response to Reviewers document that includes:

A point-by-point response to each comment
Clear indication of where changes have been made
Justification if certain suggestions are not followed

Example:

Reviewer Comment:
“The introduction lacks recent references.”

Author Response:
“Thank you for the suggestion. We have added recent references (2020–2024) in the introduction section (page 2, paragraph 2).”

4. Types of Revision Decisions

Authors may receive one of the following decisions:

Minor Revision → small improvements required; usually no major structural changes
Major Revision → substantial revisions required (theory, method, analysis, or structure)
Resubmit for Review → revised manuscript will undergo another round of review
