Asy-Syir'ah is a scientific journal that publishes articles on issues related to shari'a and law. It serves as a platform for researchers, scholars, lawyers, and jurists to share and disseminate their research findings in these fields. The views expressed in the articles are solely those of the authors and do not represent the editorial board's opinions. Asy-Syir'ah is published biannually, in June and December.

Journal History

Asy-Syir'ah was first published in print on Muharram 1, 1386 (April 22, 1966), and launched its first online edition in 2015 and gradually trying to upload its printed version to be availaable on OJS.  The journal received a "B" accreditation from the Directorate General of Higher Education through Decree No. 36b/DIKTI/Kep./2016, which was valid from May 2016 to May 2021. Furthermore, Asy-Syir'ah has been accredited as a "Sinta 2" journal for the period of January 2021 to December 2025.

Malware Attack

On June 10, 2023, the OJS 2 system of Asy-Syir’ah: Jurnal Ilmu Syari’ah dan Hukum suffered a virus/malware attack. This attack caused the OJS 2 system to become inaccessible and its data to be corrupted. The journal manager then reported the attack to the OJS development team. The OJS development team then investigated and found that the attack was caused by a virus/malware known as "XorDDoS". XorDDoS is a type of malware that attacks systems by sending DDoS attacks. A DDoS attack is an attack that aims to make a system inaccessible. Asy-Syir’ah: Jurnal Ilmu Syari’ah dan Hukum then released an update to the OJS 3 system. However, the update could not repair the data that had been damaged by the XorDDoS virus/malware attack. Therefore, the journal manager had to reupload all articles that had been published on OJS 2. The journal cannot publish new articles during the data reupload process. The journal loses data on articles that have been published.
