Please tell us about yourself (include an email address):
My name is Amannoor, developer of NikkahNest, a Muslim marriage app for iOS (Swift/SwiftUI, Firestore backend). Email: nikkahnestapp@gmail.com
Your purpose in using this API:
NikkahNest includes a Hadith section where users can browse authentic hadiths by collection, and a Daily Hadith feature that surfaces one hadith per day with a notification linking to it. I'd like to use the official Sunnah.com API to source verified Arabic text, English translation, collection/book/reference numbers, and authenticity grading — displayed with full attribution and a link back to sunnah.com for the complete record. I've read sunnah.com/about and understand mass reproduction isn't permitted; happy to discuss separate written permission for commercial-app bundling if that's needed.
Is your use case better served by having an offline dump of hadith data or programmatic API access?
Programmatic access is preferred initially, but content will be cached in Firestore after first fetch — so this is a low, mostly one-time sync per hadith, not sustained per-user traffic. An offline dump would also work fine if that's simpler on your end.
What are the languages in which you would like hadith data?
Arabic and English.
What programming language will your API client be in?
Swift (iOS client), with the actual API calls made from a Firebase Cloud Function rather than directly from the app.
