Obliquely propagating dust ion acoustic solitary waves (DIASWs) are investigated in hot adiabatic magnetized dusty plasmas consisting of hot adiabatic inertial ions, hot adiabatic inertialess electrons, and negatively/positively charged static dust grains. Using a reductive perturbation method, a nonlinear Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation is derived. The effects of the concentration of negatively/positively charged dust particles and ion-neutral collision on the basic characteristics of DIASWs are studied. The three-dimensional stability of these waves is examined by the use of small-k (long wavelength plane wave) perturbation expansion technique. It is shown that the instability criterion and their growth rate depend on external magnetic field, obliqueness, the concentration of charged dust grains, ion-neutral, and ion-dust collisions.
