Ansari: A Retrieval-Grounded Islamic AI Assistant -- Architecture, Deployment, and Lessons from 140,000 Conversations

Ansari is a retrieval‑grounded Islamic AI assistant that has handled over 140,000 conversations in more than 25 languages since June 2023. It uses an agentic retrieval loop where a language model searches authenticated Islamic corpora—including the Qur’an, hadith collections, fiqh encyclopedias, and tafsir sources—and answers only based on retrieved content, providing citations for verification. The paper details Ansari’s architecture, multi‑platform deployment, evaluation results (including top performance on the IslamicMMLU leaderboard and strong resistance to false premises), and lessons for faith‑sensitive LLM deployments.

Hadith computational science in the age of large language models: a critical narrative review

The article reviews how transformer models, retrieval‑grounded pipelines, and large language models are reshaping hadith computational science. It critically evaluates existing literature, highlighting uneven progress: expanded data resources and mature segmentation tasks, yet persistent issues such as narrow corpora, weak benchmark comparability, and limited reproducibility. The authors argue that hadith computation should be viewed as an evidence‑infrastructure problem requiring knowledge integration, provenance, and expert supervision, and they propose a research agenda to strengthen the field’s methodological rigor.

HalluTruthQA: A Fine-Grained Benchmark for Hallucination Detection, Localization, and Explanation in Arabic Question Answering

Large language models (LLMs) can generate fluent Arabic answers, yet factual errors remain difficult to detect, localize, explain, and verify. Existing hallucination benchmarks often provide response-level labels, with limited support for identifying the exact erroneous content, explaining why it is incorrect, or selecting the correct factual answer.

Automated Textbook Auditing with Multi-Agent LLM Systems

arXiv:2607. 11276v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Ensuring the quality of educational materials requires more than standard proofreading: textbooks must be audited for factual accuracy, domain-specific technical correctness, and linguistic quality simultaneously -- a task that general-purpose grammar checkers cannot address.

Agentic and Generative AI for Open-Source Intelligence and Cyber Investigations: Taxonomy, Evaluation, Challenges, and Future Directions

arXiv:2607. 03233v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The rapid growth of publicly available digital information has rendered manual open-source intelligence (OSINT) analysis insufficient for modern intelligence, cybersecurity, and cyber investigation.

MITRE-SAGE: A Multi-Agent Cybersecurity Question-Answering Model

MITRE‑SAGE is a multi‑agent retrieval‑augmented generation framework that combines semantic and structural cybersecurity knowledge to enhance large language model question‑answering. It decomposes tasks into query interpretation, evidence retrieval, and answer synthesis, supporting vulnerability assessment, threat profiling, and relationship extraction. The authors also introduce MITRE‑QA, a benchmark of 3,000 question‑answer pairs, and show that MITRE‑SAGE outperforms standalone LLMs and conventional RAG methods, with a lightweight configuration achieving top performance on most tasks.

Why Current XAI Is Not Enough for Arabic NLP: A Critical Survey of the Explainability Gap

The paper surveys the state of Explainable AI (XAI) in Arabic NLP, highlighting three gaps: a method gap where Arabic XAI relies mainly on limited post‑hoc techniques; a task gap with most work focused on classification tasks and little on generation, retrieval, or dialogue; and a linguistic gap where explanations rarely address Arabic‑specific phenomena such as morphology, dialects, and diglossia. It proposes a taxonomy of tasks, methods, linguistic units, and evaluation practices, and outlines a research agenda for linguistically grounded Arabic XAI.
