Reviewer Guidelines

Reviewer plays a vital role in the peer review process. The efforts of reviewers are the key to the goals of a fair and timely review process for all of our manuscripts and the publication of only papers of the highest quality. We greatly appreciate the reviewers for their assistance with meeting these important objectives. As for the Justice of Review, reviewers shall consider a submitted manuscript as an advantaged and confidential document and not intended to be public, and so should not use, share, or reveal unpublished information in a manuscript except with the permission of the authors. The review process shall ensure that all authors can publish their papers equally. However, the type of Peer Review of the Al-Kindus Journal for Science is a double-blind review, where the referee stays anonymous throughout the process and the author stays also anonymous for the reviewer. To keep justice of review, we never reveal the names of reviewers to authors and we also never do the reverse. Finally, reviewers should fill out the Review Form where the opinions of the reviewers will be sent in a report to authors, usually verbatim. Therefore, kindly provide sound, useful reviews expressing your criticism with courtesy. Kindly recollect to acknowledge whatever is good in the manuscript. Also, Kindly, keep a copy of the review documents for your use in case a revision is submitted by the authors. Reviewers have 1 week to review a major revision.

Reviews should be completed preferably on the due date.
