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.

Although its name suggests that its scope is limited to studying Islamic mysticism in Indonesia, this is not the case. Teosofia: Indonesian Journal of Islamic Mysticism covers all subject areas, with its management based in Indonesia. The journal was first published in print in 2012 and has been accessible online since 2015. Since 2016, the journal has been a member of Crossref, which ensures that every published article receives a persistent and unique Digital Object Identifier (DOI). This enhances citation tracking and scholarly integration. Nationally, TEOSOFIA has shown consistent academic excellence, first earning a “B” accreditation from 2016 to 2020, then being ranked as SINTA 2 from 2020 to 2024, and re-accredited as SINTA 2 (Science and Technology Index) by the Ministry of Education, Research, and Technology of the Republic of Indonesia, based on Decree No. 295/C/C3/KPT/2026, dated 2 January 2026, valid until Volume 18, No. 1 (2029). TEOSOFIA has also been indexed by DOAJ (Directory of Open Access Journals) in 2023. In 2024, the official publisher URL for TEOSOFIA was updated to https://journal.walisongo.ac.id/index.php/teosofia/index
