Abstract

This paper is a comment on the paper “Improving the quality of research in Islamic economics: The Co-authorship Approach” by Professor Dr. Muhammad bin Ibrahim Al-Suhaibani. The paper raised an important topic in scientific research in general, and in research in Islamic economics in particular. For, it discussed the decline in the quality of research in Islamic economics, and how this quality can be improved through joint authorship and interdisciplinary research, based on the justifications mentioned in the paper. In this comment, reference was made to the importance of objectively defining the field of Islamic economics so that the evaluation is specific to the research that falls in this field and not others. It also emphasizes the criterion for evaluating research, that is the unique scientific addition according to strict scientific method must be adhered to. The responsibility for the quality of research in Islamic economics was also stated, while emphasizing what the paper suggested from the idea of “co-authoring” to improve the quality of research, and supporting the recommendations that were suggested in the paper. هذه الورقة هي تعقيب على ورقة "الارتقاء بجودة البحوث في الاقتصاد ا لإسلامي: مدخل التأليف المشترك" للأستاذ الدكتور محمد بن إبراهيم السحيباني، فالورقة تضمنت إثارةً لموضوعٍ مهم في البحث العلمي بشكلٍ عامٍّ، وفي البحث العلمي في الاقتصاد الإسلامي بشكلٍ خاصٍّ، حيث ناقشت الورقة أسباب تراجع جودة البحوث في الاقتصاد الإسلامي، وكيف يمكن الارتقاء بتلك الجودة من خلال التأليف المشترك والبحوث البينية، بناءً على مبررات ذكرتها الورقة. وفي هذا التعقيب جاءت الإشارة إلى أهمية تحديد حقل الاقتصاد الإسلامي تحديدًا موضوعيًّا ليكون التقويم خاصًا بالبحوث التي تندرج في هذا الحقل دون غيره، كما تم التأكيد على معيار تقويم البحوث، وهو الإضافة العلمية وفق المنهج العلمي الرصين، وتم أيضًا بيان المسؤولية عن جودة البحوث في الاقتصاد الإسلامي، مع الـتأكيد على ما اقترحته الورقة من فكرة "التأليف المشترك" للارتقاء بجودة البحوث، والتأكيد على التوصيات التي جاءت في الورقة.
