Abdul-Qader Arnaout, (Arabic: عبد القادر الأرناؤوط) (also Abdul Qadir al-Arna'ut, Arnaut, Abdul-Kader Arnauti, and other variants) born Kadri Sokoli (1928–2004) was an Islamic scholar of Albanian origin,[citation needed] of the 20th century; he specialised in the fields of hadith and fiqh.

Biography

Hadith scholar

Arnaoot received his initial religious training with Hanafi scholars, before breaking with them to continue his quest for knowledge through self-teaching.[1] Among his students was Hassan al-Kattani, who learned Hadith studies from Arnaoot.[2]

Relationship with the Syrian government

The Ba'ath government banned Arnaoot from giving lectures and teaching.[3]

Arnaoot died in 2004 in Damascus under quasi-house arrest and without leaving a successor.[4]

Notable publications

Arnaoot completed a number of works including the following:

  • Jâmi' al-Usûl of Ibn Athir (encyclopaedic work)
  • Al-Wajeez (A Brief Summary of the Early Muslim Generations Belief)
  • The Virtues of the Qur'an
  • Zâd al-Masîr fî 'Ilm at-Tafsîr (Provision of the Journey) by Abu-al-Faraj Ibn Al-Jawzi - 9 volumes
  • Rreadatul Taibin - 12 volumes
  • Zad al-Ma'ad of Ibn Qayyim - 6 volumes
  • al-Adhkâr by Nawawi
  • El Furkan[5]
  • al-Kâfi by Muwaffaq ud-Dîn al-Maqdisi - 3 volumes

Some of that work was a group work with other famous scholars such as Mishkât al-Masâbîh which was a shared work with Muhammad Nasiruddin al-Albani, and Zad al-Ma'ad which was a shared work with Shu'ayb al-Arna'ut.
