What it checks and how it works
The tool splits the text into words (Unicode word characters, as in UAX #29) and removes the words that appear in the Arabic stop-word list of the open-source stopword package, plus any you add. Matching ignores tashkeel, tatweel and the alef, yaa and taa marbuta variants on both sides, so إلى and الى count as the same stop word.
A stop-word list is a convention, not a fact about the language: the same word can carry meaning in one use and not in another. Read the table of removed words and add or take out the ones that matter to your text.
