Abstract
Islamic Studies is an academic and multidisciplinary field that studies the Islamic religion, history, theology, culture, law, thought, religious practice, and social issues related to Islam and identifies key research topics and analyses their evolution over time. Bibliometric analysis has been applied in this article: we retrieved 948 academic articles related to Islamic Studies from Scopus after some data cleaning and preparation steps. The R package "Bibliometrics" was mainly used to analyze this content. Our study has two parts, and the performance analysis contains five categories (Annual Scientific Production, Most Relevant Sources, Most Productive Authors, Most Cited Publications, and Most Relevant Keywords). Science mapping includes country collaboration analysis and thematic analysis. We highlighted our thematic analysis by splitting the entire bibliographic dataset. This study is one of the most comprehensive bibliometric reanalyzing Islamic studies-related studies so far. We explain how the results will benefit the understanding of current academic research interests on essential themes of Islamic studies.
