The Al-Zahrawi Journal for Humanities and Social Sciences (ZJHSS) is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access academic journal published by Al-Zahrawi University, Karbala, Iraq. The journal is dedicated to advancing scholarly knowledge, critical thought, and high-quality interdisciplinary research across a broad spectrum of humanities and social sciences.
