How do you cite websites in APA format?

Answer 1

To cite a website using APA style people should include the date of access because web sites are updated often. Add the complete URL of the site. Use n.d. if no publishing date is given. The format is: Author, A.(Date if available). Title of document/ article/ or page.

Answer 2

Hadith can be referenced in different ways

Generally Hadith is referenced as below

Author Name, Hadith Book Name, Chapter Title, Title of Hadith, Hidith No, Publisher Name, Place. for Example :

al-Bukhari in al-Sahih, Bk.: al-I'tisam bi al-Kitab wa al-Sunna, Ch.: Following the exemplary customs [sunan] of Allah's Messenger a, 6/2655 §6852. Darul Turath, Berut.

Check out the related link from The OWL at Purdue:

"Nonperiodical Web Document, Web Page, or Report

List as much of the following information as possible (you sometimes have to hunt around to find the information; don't be lazy. If there is a page like http://www.somesite.com/somepage.htm, and somepage.htm doesn't have the information you're looking for, move up the URL to http://www.somesite.com/):

Author, A. A., & Author, B. B. (Date of publication). Title of document. Retrieved from http://Web address"

Answer 4

If possible, cite the website in text with the author date format. If an author or date is not available, see the related link The OWL at Purdue, which states:

"Unknown Author and Unknown Date: If no author or date is given, use the title in your signal phrase or the first word or two of the title in the parentheses and use the abbreviation "n.d." (for "no date").

Another study of students and research decisions discovered that students succeeded with tutoring ("Tutoring and APA," n.d.).

When an electronic source lacks page numbers, you should try to include information that will help readers find the passage being cited. When an electronic document has numbered paragraphs, use the ¶ symbol, or the abbreviation "para." followed by the paragraph number (Hall, 2001, ¶ 5) or (Hall, 2001, para. 5). If the paragraphs are not numbered and the document includes headings, provide the appropriate heading and specify the paragraph under that heading. Note that in some electronic sources, like Web pages, people can use the Find function in their browser to locate any passages you cite.

According to Smith (1997), ... (Mind over Matter section, para. 6).".
