Abstract EN

Researchers sometimes get shocked of some important resources for the negligence of reporting some significant scholars who had vital and clear contributions in the different disciplines.

One of those scholars is Abu Ali Mohammad bin Al Mustaneer, known as Qutrob.

When you look into his bibliography, you find he is mentioned in some resources but you wonder about the reason(s) why some important resources neglected him and did not mention him at all, like “Seyar A’alam Al Nubala’” for Al Dahabi and “Al- Muntadam” for Ibn Al-Jawzi who was concerned in documenting death report every year.

This research consists of an introduction, reporting for contexts where Ibn Mandour counted on Qutrob’s views in Lisan Al-Arab dictionary, and a discussion.

Qutrob’s contributions were reported in Lisan Al-Arab in four areas: his clarifications for foreign lexicons, syntactic points of view, his knowledge in Arabs’ dialects, and his contributions in “E’lm Al-Tafseer” .

The researcher believes that there should be more research on Qutrob’s works to uncover more of his contributions through the different resources specially dictionaries.

The researcher concludes that Qutrob reached distinctive conclusions which no one had reached before.

It is important to note that no one at his time objected or refused his views except few people as explained in this paper.

The researcher noticed that some linguists, although few, would take his views without crediting him for that; this clearly shows that his opinions were accepted by his descendants.

Qutrob might have two opinions regarding the same matter; this caused some confusion a cross some references where some of them would prove just one of his opinions, while others might take both.
