Teosofia: Indonesian Journal of Islamic Mysticism

About the Journal

Teosofia: Indonesian Journal of Islamic Mysticism is a peer-reviewed international journal published twice a year by the Faculty of Usuluddin and Humanities, Universitas Islam Negeri Walisongo, Semarang, Indonesia. All submitted manuscripts are subject to a thorough double-blind peer review to maintain academic integrity and scholarly standards. The journal serves as a scholarly platform for in-depth discussions of Islamic mysticism from diverse perspectives. Therefore, TEOSOFIA aims to promote original research articles based on textual and primarily empirical studies encompassing philosophical (falsafi), theoretical (akhlaqi), and practical (amali) Sufism; to encourage the integration of Islamic spiritual tradition with other fields of study, such as education, health, ecology, psychology, economics, social, and politics; to bridge a global exchange of ideas among scholars from Western and Eastern perspectives; and to foster Sufism studies to examine its significance and relevance to address contemporary issues of modern society.

The journal features contributions from scholars affiliated with institutions across Egypt, Malaysia, Nigeria, the United States, Morocco, Yemen, Iran, Thailand, the United Kingdom, Tunisia, Türkiye, India, the United Arab Emirates, China, the Netherlands, and Germany. This showcases a growing diversity of international authorship from Africa, Asia, Europe, and America. Through this global academic network, Teosofia fosters idea exchange and promotes the growth of international scholarship in Sufism.
