This paper aims to investigate a linguistic issue related to Sari Al-Deen Al-Durori (d. 1066 A.H), a renowned Arab linguist in the 11th century of the Islamic calendar. Despite being relatively unknown to modern scholars and researchers, this linguist has left behind a valuable knowledge legacy and held a significant scientific standing among his contemporaries. The focus of this study is on 'Baiti A-Raqmatain', a topic that has been subject to various interpretations by Arab linguists, including grammarians. In this paper, the author presents ten different perspectives addressing the problems in 'Baitia A-Raqmatain'. Additionally, the author introduces a syntactic interpretation and meaning, along with three new opinions that have not been previously discussed in the literature. I was inspired to write on this topic after reading several valuable manuscripts by renowned Arab scholars covering various areas of knowledge. Among them, I came across the works of Sari Al-Deen Al-Durori, an Arab intellectual who, in my opinion, has not received the recognition he truly deserves. Sari Al-Deen Al-Durori was a prominent scholar of the 11th Hijri century and has left behind a scientific heritage that is worthy of study and research. The study is divided into two sections. The first section focuses on discussing the author himself, including his background, birth and death dates, his jurisprudential and doctrinal school, scholarly reputation, influential teachers, disciples, and written works. Within this section, I also delve into the manuscript itself, examining its attribution to Sari Al-Deen, the author's methodology, language and style, as well as its form. I conclude this section with a comprehensive systematic review of the investigation. The second section of the study is dedicated to the transcription and documentation of the analyzed texts, including commentary, following commonly accepted investigation rules. I wrap up this section by providing a list of references used throughout the study. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The researcher studied in these papers an issue related to the sayings of the interpreters put by Al-Hafiz Ibn Kathir - may God have mercy on him in - his interpretation with strangeness, and the research was organized in the introduction and three detectives and a conclusion. As for the introduction, it dealt with the problem of research, previous studies, research methodology and procedures. Then the researcher deliberately explained the method of Al-Hafiz in his statement of strange sayings, and then added to explaining the reasons for the strangeness on which Al-Hafiz Ibn Katheer leaned in describing the explanatory saying with strangeness. He then went to the statement of the status of the strange saying by Ibn Kathir. His research then concluded with the most important findings and recommendations, including: First: The personality of Al-Hafiz Ibn Kathir is evident, especially in his description of explanatory statements with strangeness, and the urgent need to study that personality and highlight the critical approach. Second: Al-Hafiz Ibn Kathir distinguished in presenting strange interpretative sayings, and explaining the reasons for the strangeness, whether related to the transmission and effect or to the evidence and the reasons for the descent, and the urging to collect these sayings and study them thoroughly. Third: The disparity in the description and judgment of the strange explanatory saying when Al-Hafiz Ibn Kathir, and the call to compare this with the words of interpreters and investigators from the scholars.
