The additional reason is that the data is current and readily available, guaranteeing its relevance to current developments (Faisal & Azhari, 2.
This time frame allows for a comparative examination of technological developments, society, and the economy while capturing the effects of major worldwide events (Jaelani et al.
A five-year period is also perfect for longitudinal research because it provides enough time to observe changes and trends (Sahrudin & Mh, 2.
This study explores the quantitative analysis of scholarly literature about the Quran.
Islamic law .
Islamic jurisprudence, social justice, and human rights (Dadah et al.
, 2.
The scholarly conversation surrounding these subjects has expanded and become more diverse in recent years, which is indicative of their significance in today's sociopolitical environments (Manek et al.
, 2.
The foundational holy source of Islam, the Quran, together with Islamic jurisprudence and Sharia law, offer a framework for comprehending moral and legal matters in Muslim countries (Arfan et al.
, 2.
On the other hand, universal concepts like social justice and human rights interact with legal and theological frameworks, posing important challenges regarding how they should be applied and interpreted in diverse cultural situations (Aditya & Al-Fatih, 2.
Employing document and network analysis, this study uses a comprehensive bibliometric analytic approach to map out the intellectual landscape of these related topics (Apriliani et al.
, 2.
Through the use of VOSViewer.
Microsoft Excel, and r/r-studio software, the research attempts to offer a comprehensive picture of authorship patterns, publication trends, and theme developments (Aozora Tawazun et al.
, 2.
The discourse on the Quran.
Islamic law, sharia.
Islamic jurisprudence, social justice, and human rights is shaped by several major publications, prominent authors, and developing trends, all of which are identified in this analysis along with the present state of research (Alam, 2.
The study's findings will be a great resource for academics, decision-makers, and professionals interested in investigating how religious texts, legal precepts, and social justice They will provide light on how these areas change and impact one another over time (Dhea Salsabila et al.
, 2.
The scientific community, publishers, and legislators increasingly acknowledge how important evaluation procedures work.
This is especially true for bibliometric indicators from journal editorials and individual publications (Cahyani M Djamil et al.
, 2.
The article presents several notable strengths that enhance its contribution to the academic discourse.
Firstly, the study's comprehensive analysis, which spans from 2019 to 2024, allows for an in-depth understanding of recent trends and developments in Islamic law, human rights, social justice, and Quranic studies (Anwar et , 2.
This extensive timeframe enables the identification of evolving themes and emerging areas of interest, providing a robust foundation for future research.
Secondly, the article's interdisciplinary approach is particularly commendable (Setiawan, 2.
The study offers a multifaceted view of the subject matter by integrating perspectives from law, human rights, social justice, and Quranic contexts.
This holistic approach enriches the analysis and highlights the interconnectedness of these fields.

September-2024, 453-471 demonstrating how they collectively contribute to a broader understanding of societal Methodological rigour is another significant strength of the article (Apriantoro et al.
The use of bibliometric methods ensures a systematic and quantitative analysis of research publications, lending objectivity and reliability to the findings (Apriantoro et al.
This rigorous methodology enhances the credibility of the study, making its conclusions more dependable for scholars and practitioners alike.
The study's ability to identify key research trends, influential authors, prominent journals, and significant publications is also noteworthy.
By mapping out these elements, the article provides valuable insights into the current landscape of research in Islamic law and related fields (Anurogo, 2.
This information is particularly useful for scholars seeking to understand the prevailing directions in the field and those aiming to identify gaps or opportunities for further investigation (Anurogo et al.
, 2.
Furthermore, the article's contextual relevance stands out as a major advantage.
focusing on the Quranic context and its relation to contemporary issues such as human rights and social justice, the study remains highly pertinent to current global discussions (Kurniawan, 2.
, effectively bridging traditional Islamic teachings with modern human rights discourse that highlights areas of convergence and potential harmonisation.
The educational value of the article cannot be overstated.
The comprehensive findings serve as an excellent resource for educators and students, providing a well-rounded understanding of the intersection of Islamic law and contemporary social issues (Wibowo et al.
, 2.
This makes the article a valuable teaching tool in academic settings, fostering a deeper appreciation of the subject matter among learners.
Lastly, the insights gained from this study have significant policy implications.
The article's findings can inform policymaking, especially in regions where Islamic law is crucial in shaping legal and social systems (Bari et al.
, 2024.
Ilmi et al.
, 2.
By highlighting areas where Islamic principles and human rights frameworks can be aligned, the study offers a pathway for developing policies that respect cultural and religious contexts while promoting social justice and human rights (Azkya Ramadhan et al.
