Request for API access: Ahmad Usman

[usmahm]

• Please tell us about yourself (include an email address): My name is Ahmad Usman, and I am currently developing an Islamic mobile application designed to help users engage with hadith daily. Email: [email protected]

• Your purpose in using this API: I am building an app that encourages users to connect regularly with authentic hadith. Planned features include:

  • Customizable count and interval for daily hadith reminders
  • Email reminders to support consistency
  • Viewing the history of the hadith they’ve read
  • Sharing hadith as either formatted images or plain text
  • Translation to local languages for users

  The Sunnah.com API will be the source of hadith content for the app.

• API rate limits: I am not sure about this yet as it would depend on the number of users the app might attract; however, during development, below is the max request per second and per day:

  • Maximum requests per second: 1 request per second
  • Maximum requests per day: 1,000 requests per day

• Is your use case better served by having an offline dump of hadith data or programmatic API access? I prefer programmatic API access to allow for dynamic fetching and updates as users interact with the app.

• What are the languages in which would you like hadith data? Arabic and English I intend to use translate library(https://www.npmjs.com/package/translate) to convert to local languages for users

• What programming language will your API client be in? JavaScript/TypeScript
