Call for Research Papers

Date: October 20-22, 2020

Venue: The Research Center for Islamic Legislation and Ethics (CILE), Qatar

This seminar aims to critically address the key End-of-Life Care (EoLC)  ethical questions, by engaging a wide range of scholarly disciplines, including those within the field of Islamic studies (e.g., Theology, Philosophy, Jurisprudence & Legal Theory, Sufism, and Adab) in addition to other disciplines like social sciences and legal studies.

Submissions (abstracts, bios and full papers) can be written in either English or Arabic.

After the seminar, the full proceedings will undergo a double-blind peer-review process. The papers which will successfully go through this process, will be published as part of a thematic issue in the peer-reviewed Journal of Islamic Ethics (JIE) and/or an edited volume in the peer-reviewed book-series Studies in Islamic Ethics, both published by Brill.

CILE will offer the authors of accepted papers the following:

• Peer-reviewed publication

• Cover of the costs of making the publication available via open access.

• Travel and accommodation costs during the three days of the seminar.

• Simultaneous Arabic-English translation throughout the seminar.
