Request for API access: Ahsan Fazal

Please tell us about yourself (include an email address)

Your purpose in using this API

I have many ideas that I would like to discuss with the maintainers of Sunnah.com, so please reach out to me so we can have a conversation about my plans and ideas. I want to be clear about one thing: I want everything I create to be free and openly accessible (open source project on GitHub, preferably under the sunnah-com organization). My intentions are to do everything فِي سَبِيلِ ٱللَّٰهِ and without any financial incentive.

API rate limits

  • Maximum requests per second: N/A
  • Maximum requests per day: N/A

Is your use case better served by having an offline dump of hadith data or programmatic API access?

Yes, most definitely. Ideally I would like an endpoint with which I could one-a-day/week/month sync my own instance of the data with. It could be as simple as a URL to an .sql file, which I would call periodically to sync new data with.

What are the languages in which would you like hadith data?

Arabic and English.

What programming language will your API client be in?

Most likely Swift and TypeScript.

It seems like this repository is stale? I want to get started ASAP, so I have scraped the entire website and created my own SQL file with all the data.

Are you guys okay with that?

@AhsanFazal Would love to know how to do that. I haven't gotten a response to any of my issues and have resorted to manual methods as I'm not a developer. I am trying to data source that stores all revelations, hadith, isnad, etc.
