The University of Haifa leads with 19 articles, and Amayreh MM. is the most prolific author (five articles). Sub-content trends vary over the decade. Recommendations include increased publications, exploring the University of Haifa's role, and encouraging Indonesian researchers. The study concludes with future research avenues, emphasizing expanded publications and exploring the University of Haifa's impact. In summary, it provides insights into phonology and maharah kalam studies, identifies contributors, and suggests future directions within Scopus publications from 1980 to 2022.
