ISNAD2 citation system is used in our journal.
Since the articles and works to be published in İdrak will appeal to the whole scientific world, especially academicians, they should be written in a simple and understandable language in terms of style and expression; they should be written in a scientific and qualified nature. Current language and grammar rules should be taken into account in writing, and words, expressions and compositions that do not comply with the structure and grammar of the Turkish language should not be included. It is preferable to use Turkish translations of foreign language terms, if any; if the Turkish expression does not fully meet the term, it is preferable to use the original term and to give an explanation when necessary.
The current ISNAD Citation Style should be used in the writing of research articles and other works submitted to İdrak. In addition, the spelling and transcription rules not mentioned in the ISNAD citation system should be based on the spelling rules of DIA (Turkish Religious Foundation Islamic Encyclopedia). These spelling and transcription rules should also be followed in the writing of article titles.
