API key request for Qudwa — Islamic role-model companion app #3145

Description

Assalamu alaikum,

I'm building Qudwa (قدوة), a mobile app that sends users a daily notification tied to a Sahabi or Tabi'i they have chosen as their personal role model. Each notification surfaces an authenticated moment from that companion's life, with a precise source citation (book, volume, page) and, where applicable, the underlying hadith.

I'm writing to request an API key for sunnah.com.

Intended use:

  • Look up specific hadith by collection + reference number to cite inside notifications and on character profile pages.
    • Display the hadith text (Arabic + English), grading, narrator chain, and a deep link back to sunnah.com for the full record.
      • Caching: hadith are cached locally so a single hadith is not fetched repeatedly. Estimated cache hit ratio >95% after the first month.
        • Volume: well under any reasonable rate limit. Phase 1 covers roughly 100 notifications referencing ~150 hadiths.
          I have read sunnah.com/about and understand that mass reproduction is not permitted. The app uses hadith for didactic / teaching purposes, each one cited with full attribution back to sunnah.com.

If a separate written permission for bundling cited hadith inside a commercial mobile app is needed, I am happy to pursue that in parallel. Please advise.

Repo: (will share on request)

JazakumAllahu khayran.
