  Vol. 1 No. 1 ( January 2026) of Islamicate Futures: Knowledge, Ethics, and Muslim Societies, with e-ISSN xxxx-xxxx and p-ISSN xxxx-xxxx, marks the inaugural publication of the journal. This issue brings together 14 authors from three countries Indonesia, Malaysia, and Yemen representing 10 universities and higher education institutions.

This inaugural issue explores the intellectual, ethical, technological, and social transformations shaping the future of Islamic thought and Muslim societies. The published articles address emerging themes such as Islamicate Futures as an interdisciplinary field of inquiry, artificial intelligence governance based on maqāṣid al-sharī‘ah, digital religious authority, online Muslim identity, moral visibility, digital fatwas, and the transformation of Islamic intellectual traditions within contemporary digital environments. Collectively, the contributions demonstrate that the future of Muslim societies must be examined through the interconnected dimensions of knowledge, ethics, religious authority, education, governance, technology, and social responsibility. This issue provides an important scholarly foundation for developing critical and interdisciplinary discussions on how Islamic traditions and Muslim societies can respond ethically, constructively, and contextually to contemporary global transformations.
