Subject: API Access Request – Islamic Finance Research on Companions' Economic Profiles

Dear Sunnah.com Team,

My name is Thibaut Issah. I am a practitioner and researcher in Islamic finance, currently conducting a structured academic study on the economic profiles of the Prophet's Sahaba financial ethics as documented in the hadith corpus.

The objective of this research is to produce a rigorous, hadith-sourced analysis of each Companion's patrimony, distinguishing between what is explicitly attested in canonical collections and what derives from later biographical sources. The final output will serve as educational material for Muslim professionals and student seeking authentic Islamic finance role models grounded in primary sources.

Sunnah.com is by far the most reliable and comprehensive digital platform for this work. Your structured, authenticated, multi-collection database is simply unmatched. Manual search, however, creates significant noise when filtering by narrator and economic context across thousands of hadiths.

API access would allow me to:

  • Query hadiths by narrator name with precision
  • Filter by economic keywords (wealth, trade, waqf, donation, inheritance) across all collections simultaneously
  • Cross-reference hadith grades to assess source reliability for each data point
  • Build a clean, traceable dataset linking each financial fact to its canonical reference

I would be grateful if you could grant me API access for this research purpose. I am happy to share the methodology and final outputs with your team, and to credit Sunnah.com as the primary source in all publications.

Thank you for the extraordinary work you have done in making the Sunnah accessible to the world.

fi amanilah
