The answer

Ibn al-Arabi and al-Subki are two venerable and meticulous scholars, but they come from a later generation than the Hadith specialists (muhaddithun). As for Ibn Abi al-Dunya, he is a venerable scholar and muhaddith, but weak hadiths are abundant in his books. Ibn Abi al-Nu'man is not known.
