The Journal consists of two parts. First and the main part includes peer-reviewed scientific articles. In the second part, book reviews and essays or review articles are included based on the evaluation of the Editorial Board, without being subject to a blind peer-review process.

The Journal aims to contribute to the academic field of Islamic Studies through a focus on Sufi Studies, while also bringing forward Ottoman Sufi thought and Sufi perspectives on Islamic civilization. At the same time, through an interdisciplinary approach, the Journal aims to expand the accepted bounds of disciplines by providing the opportunity for the various fields to work together when thinking of the myriad topics related to Islamic and Sufi Studies.
