Request for API access: Wasim Ishaq Khan

[wasim919]

• Please tell us about yourself (include an email address):
  My name is Wasim Ishaq Khan and my email address is wasimwik919@gmail.com

• Your purpose in using this API:
  Building an offline-first Islamic mobile app ("Fahm al-Quran") for Android and iOS. The API will be used once at build time to download hadith data from the 6 major collections (Kutub al-Sittah), which will be packaged into a local SQLite database bundled with the app. Users will never make live API calls — all hadith data is served offline from the bundled DB. The app is for personal and educational use.

• API rate limits:
  Maximum requests per second: 2 req/s (our seed script is deliberately throttled)
  Maximum requests per day: 10 req/day (the seed runs once)

• Is your use case better served by having an offline dump of hadith data or programmatic API access?
  An offline dump would be ideal since the app must work fully offline. However, we will use API access to generate a one-time SQLite snapshot (hadiths.db) that ships inside the app binary. If a direct data dump (SQLite or JSON) is available, that would be preferred.

• What are the languages in which would you like hadith data?
  Arabic (original text) and English (translation). Urdu would be a bonus if available.

• What programming language will your API client be in?
  Python (for the one-time seed script). The data is consumed by a Flutter/Dart mobile app at runtime via SQLite.

Thank you for submitting your request. I'm just afraid your request might get stuck in the same backlog of requests that have been accumulating for years in this repository.

So, we've created a issue to address this problem, and I've made personally two suggestions. Would you like to take a look at them and share your opinion?
