Shuaib Arnaout (1928-2016) is a scientist known both in our country and in the world of his text criticism, especially for hadith books. Although he was born in Syria, as his name suggests, this scientist, who was originally Albanian, has contributed directly or indirectly to the textual criticism belonging to various branches of science, mostly in the field of hadith. Among these, there are studies that he made alone as well as works that he textually criticized as a group or in which he was a consultant of books. In the shadow of the debates over whether the textual criticism of a book is considered a science and its critic is considered a scholar, he followed a method that exceeded the mere textual criticism activity in the works he dealt with. For example, while it is possible to come across the interpretation and judgment of hadiths in his investigations in addition to a bibliography of a scholar/narrator, there are also semantic and phonetic analysis of words, explanations of Arabic language and literature, and istishhats from Arabic poems. The fact that he dealt with the works he did textual criticism comprehensively in this way caused his works to go beyond the definition of classical textual criticism and increased the volume of the basic work excessively. For example, Ahmed b. Hanbal's work named al-Musnad, which was previously printed in six volumes as no comment critic textual, has become fifty volumes with his critic textual. The large-scale criticism textual made by a non-Arab person with such explanations has caused some criticism. With the addition of the factor of making textual criticism of some works as a group; the dosage of critique has increased even more. In this study, his explanations on Arabic and literature will be examined and the examples he gave will be emphasized. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
