Jurnal Ilmiah Islam Futura (JIIF) is an international peer reviewed journal published by the Center for Research and Publication of Universitas Islam Negeri (State Islamic University) Ar-Raniry Banda Aceh, Indonesia, since 2001. Jurnal Ilmiah Islam Futura has the primary academic mission to develop various Islamic studies based on contemporary Islamic perspective, particularly in Aceh and Indian Ocean. The word "Futura" means the future of Islam. The Islamic perspective is "how-view" oriented to Islam's values, which is the methodological foundation for the entire discipline of Islamic sciences. Historically, the Islamic perspective has colored the Islamic community's intellectual life, as reflected in scientists' and thinkers' views in the classical period. The perspective has evolved in Islamic discourses and will be expanded continuously to the present and the future. The historicity of the development is a necessity along with the Islamic community's intellectual demands in real life that increases dynamically.
