Adil Öztekin serves as Assistant Professor in the Department of Basic Islamic Sciences at Gaziantep University's Faculty of Theology, Turkey, specializing in Hadith studies and textual criticism with regional emphasis on modern Egypt.
His academic credentials include:
- Doctorate (2015-2022) from Ankara University, Faculty of Theology (Department of Basic Islamic Sciences/Hadith)

- Licence in Theology from Al-Azhar University (1996-2000)

Öztekin's research examines critical methodologies in Islamic sciences, particularly analyzing reformist movements, Quranic-centric interpretations, and media representations of Hadith criticism within contemporary Egyptian discourse. His work bridges classical scholarship with modern analytical frameworks to investigate how textual criticism impacts religious-political dynamics.
Recent publications (2022-2023) demonstrate consistent focus on Egyptian Islamic thought, revealing patterns where textual criticism activities intersect with media narratives, political structures, and educational systems. The collective output highlights evolving methodologies in Hadith studies within modern nation-state contexts.
He actively supervises four master's students:
- Completed: Ahmad Elabsi (2024, analysis of Simillavi's work), Derya Tuncer (2023, architectural hadiths in Gaziantep)
- Ongoing: Hanifi Ispir (until 2025, Hanafi hadith methodology), Ismail Uğur (since 2023, Tafsir al-Maraghi hadiths)
