Request for API access: [Diliaver Akimov] #3753

Description

@Dilaver180
  • Please tell us about yourself (include an email address):
    Diliaver Akimov, akimov1995@gmail.com. I work on Arabic-to-English book
    translation, with a semi-automated pipeline that assists human editors.

  • Your purpose in using this API:
    Verification, not redistribution. When we translate a book that quotes
    hadith, we need to check that the Arabic wording in our source corpus is
    correct (it comes from OCR of printed books and can contain recognition
    errors), and that the English rendering matches the hadith actually cited
    rather than a similar one. Both checks are string comparisons against a
    canonical reference. The hadith data is used inside our editorial tooling;
    we do not republish your database or expose it as a service.

  • API rate limits:

    • Maximum requests per second: 10
    • Maximum requests per day: 2000
  • Is your use case better served by having an offline dump of hadith data or
    programmatic API access?

    An offline dump would suit us much better. Our verification runs over a whole
    book at once and is entirely local, so batch lookups against a local copy are
    both faster for us and far lighter on your servers than thousands of live
    requests. If a dump is available, we would prefer it; API access as a fallback
    for occasional individual lookups would still be welcome.

  • What are the languages in which would you like hadith data?
    Arabic and English.

  • What programming language will your API client be in?
    JavaScript (Node.js) for the pipeline, Python for the data preparation step.
