Language Editing of Arabic Manuscripts: A Guide
Abstract
This article aims to describe the basic rules and principles of editing theses, research papers, and books written in Arabic. The importance of language editing of academic publications has long been acknowledged. Moreover, many PhD dissertations are sent to Arab countries for evaluation and in many cases, the evaluators criticize the poor standard of academic language. Therefore, it is the need of the hour to explore the significance, rules, and principles of language editing of writings composed in Arabic. For, this purpose the study draws upon relevant material as well as upon personal experiences.
It is a condition of publication in this journal that authors assign copyright or license publication rights of their articles to the Islamic Research Institute, International Islamic University,Islamabad. This enables IRI to ensure full copyright protection and to disseminate the article, and of course the journal, to the widest possible readership in print and electronic formats as appropriate. Furthermore, the authors are required to secure permission if they want to reproduce any figure, table, or extract from the text of another source. This applies to direct reproduction as well as "derivative reproduction" (where you have created a new figure or table which derives substantially from a copyrighted source).
