AI chatbots confidently cite IslamQA answers with wrong numbers, made-up links, or paraphrased rulings that don't match the original text. This one covers the IslamQA.info corpus.

What it's for

Search 32,000+ IslamQA.info fatwas by topic (semantic search) or by answer ID (e.g. #264334). English primary, Arabic when available.

Each result links back to the original IslamQA.info page and has a stable shareable proof link — so you can verify exactly what the AI is reading, not a paraphrase from model memory.

Links

• Search app: https://search.islamqa-mcp.org/
• Overview / how to connect assistants: https://islamqa-mcp.org/
• Source code (GPL): https://github.com/ovehbe/islamqa-mcp

Data & honesty

• Text is scraped from IslamQA.info sitemaps (English and Arabic pages). Not affiliated with IslamQA — attribution links are included on every result.
• Search is semantic (OpenAI embeddings) or keyword-based. Neither ranks by scholarly weight or strength of evidence.
• IslamQA reflects one scholarly methodology. This is not a mufti, not universal consensus, and not a substitute for consulting qualified scholars on matters of personal practice.

If you use AI for Islamic topics, this gives you a way to check whether the fatwa it's citing actually says what it claims. If it's not your thing, no worries. Feedback welcome — still improving it.

I’ve been frustrated by how easy it is for AI chatbots to sound confident while mixing up collections, numbers, or wording of hadith. I put together something practical: a free web search over a large hadith database (Arabic + English), plus optional hooks for people who use AI assistants with “tools” (MCP).

What it’s for

• Look up by topic (semantic search) or by reference (e.g. global ID like #6074, or bukhari 6074-style patterns).
• Each result is tied to a stable row in the database, with a shareable link so you can show exactly what text the tool is reading—not a paraphrase from model memory.

Links

• Search app: https://search.hadith-mcp.org/

Data & honesty

• Text comes from the community hadith-json corpus (aligned with Sunnah.com-style sourcing).
• Cross-references in the UI are algorithmic (similarity, etc.)—useful for exploration, not a substitute for classical ilm al-hadith or a scholar’s judgment.
• This is not a mufti, not a substitute for verifying important matters with qualified people and recognized references.

If this is useful, use it as a sanity check when an AI cites a hadith; if it’s not your thing, no worries. Feedback welcome—I’m still improving it.
