- ## 🧭 Where things stand
25
49
 
26
- **isnady** is a hadith search application whose centre is the *isnad*: it reads each
27
- chain of transmission from the Arabic text, narrator by narrator, and explains what each
28
- link means. The application runs today on Windows, Linux and macOS:
50
+ > **About this npm package.** `npm install isnady` installs a small JavaScript library that will grow into
51
+ > isnady's API for the web (isnady.net); it does **not** install the isnady application. The application is
52
+ > installed with Python (`pip install isnady`, or the one-line installers below) or downloaded as a desktop
53
+ > app from the [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/bayramkotan/isnady/releases/latest) page. The npm package
54
+ > always carries the same version number as the application.
55
+ >
56
+ > ```js
57
+ > import { info, version } from "isnady";
58
+ > console.log(version); // the isnady version, the same as on PyPI and GitHub
59
+ > console.log(info()); // { name, version, dataLoaded, homepage }
60
+ > ```
61
+
62
+ ## 🎯 Why isnady
63
+
64
+ A hadith is two things: the text (*matn*) and the chain of people who passed it on
65
+ (*isnad*). Most hadith sites let you search the text and show a grade. isnady is built
66
+ the other way round: the chain comes first, because that is where the scholars of hadith
67
+ did their work.
68
+
69
+ - **The chain is read, not typed in.** isnady reads the chain from the Arabic text itself:
70
+ who narrated to whom, with which words, and whether it reaches the Prophet.
71
+ - **Nothing is guessed.** Where the wording cannot be read with confidence, the chain is
72
+ kept whole and marked, never split wrongly. A missing link is shown as missing.
73
+ - **Every fact has a source.** Every hadith, text and grade records where it came from,
74
+ under which licence.
75
+ - **Grades are shown as the scholars gave them.** Each grade keeps its scholar's name and
76
+ wording; isnady does not merge them or invent its own.
77
+ - **Window and command line, same engine.** Everything the window does, the command line
78
+ does too, with the same results.
79
+

81
+
82
+ ## 📦 Install
83
+
84
+ ### Desktop application
85
+
86
+ Download isnady for your system from the **[latest release](https://github.com/bayramkotan/isnady/releases/latest)** —
87
+ everything included, the AI features too:
88
+
89
+ | System | File |
90
+ |---|---|
91
+ | Windows 10/11 | `isnady-<version>-windows-setup.exe` — Windows may say the publisher is unknown (the app is not signed): *More info → Run anyway* |
92
+ | Linux | `isnady-<version>-linux-x86_64.AppImage` — make it executable (`chmod +x`) and run it |
93
+ | macOS, Apple silicon / Intel | `isnady-<version>-macos-arm64.dmg` / `…-macos-x86_64.dmg` — the first time, right-click the app and choose *Open* (it is not notarized) |
94
+
95
+ Put isnady on the desktop and in the applications menu with **Tools → Create Desktop Shortcut** (or
96
+ `iy shortcut`): the shortcut starts isnady the way it is installed — the AppImage, the application, or the
97
+ `isnady-gui` command of a Python install.
98
+
99
+ ### With Python
100
+
101
+ One line, on any system. Install isnady wherever you like — for all users, for yourself, in a
102
+ virtual environment, with pipx: the same line installs it, and later updates every copy where it
103
+ is, asking for administrator rights only when a copy needs them. Nothing is ever removed.
104
+
105
+ ```bash
106
+ # Linux and macOS
107
+ curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bayramkotan/isnady/main/install.sh | bash
108
+ ```
109
+
110
+ ```powershell
111
+ # Windows (PowerShell)
112
+ irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bayramkotan/isnady/main/install.ps1 | iex
113
+ ```
114
+
115
+ Or with pip:
29
116
 
30
117
  ```bash
31
118
  pip install isnady
32
- iy
119
+ isnady # or the short name: iy
120
+ ```
121
+
122
+ Run inside a clone of this repository, the installer makes an editable (developer) install of
123
+ that clone instead.
124
+
125
+ The same program answers to several names: **`iy`** to type, **`isnady`** to read, and
126
+ `isnady-cli` kept from the first releases. Without arguments it opens the window; with
127
+ arguments it is the command line. On Windows, **`isnady-gui`** opens the window without a
128
+ console.
129
+
130
+ <details>
131
+ <summary><b>🐧 On Linux, pip may refuse to install</b></summary>
132
+ <br>
133
+
134
+ Most current distributions mark the system Python as *externally managed* (PEP 668), so a
135
+ plain `pip install` stops with `error: externally-managed-environment`. Two ways around it:
136
+
137
+ ```bash
138
+ # Isolated — recommended, no system packages touched
139
+ pipx install isnady
140
+
141
+ # Into your user site — needs the override flag
142
+ pip install isnady --break-system-packages --no-cache-dir -U
143
+ ```
144
+
145
+ </details>
146
+
147
+ ### Something not right?
148
+
149
+ `iy update` updates every copy of isnady where it is installed. `iy doctor` lists every copy and
150
+ which one each command really starts — an older copy in the user folder can start before a newer
151
+ one elsewhere, so every copy is kept at the same version. The same report is under
152
+ **Help → Check Installation**. If an old copy starts even for `iy update`, run
153
+ `python3 -s -m isnady update` (Windows: `py -s -m isnady update`).
154
+
155
+ ### Upgrading
156
+
157
+ ```bash
158
+ iy update
33
159
  ```
34
160
 
35
- **This npm package is the JavaScript side, and it is not functional yet.** It will be the
36
- client of the isnady.net web service, which runs the same engine as the application, so a
37
- chain read on the web and in the app always gives the same answer. Until that service
38
- exists, the package only reports its version:
161
+ Your data stays where it is; a newer isnady upgrades the database in place the first time
162
+ it opens it.
39
163
 
40
- ```js
41
- import { info, version } from "isnady";
164
+ ---
165
+
166
+ ## 🚀 Quick Start
167
+
168
+ isnady ships without hadith data: you choose the sources. One command brings in Sahih
169
+ al-Bukhari and Sunan Abi Dawud in Arabic and Turkish from the open
170
+ [fawazahmed0/hadith-api](https://github.com/fawazahmed0/hadith-api) collection (public
171
+ domain):
42
172
 
43
- console.log(version); // "0.1.0"
44
- console.log(info()); // { name: "isnady", version: "0.1.0", dataLoaded: false, homepage: "…" }
173
+ ```bash
174
+ iy import fawazahmed0 https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/fawazahmed0/hadith-api@1/editions.json \
175
+ --book bukhari --book abudawud --language ara --language tur --license Unlicense
45
176
  ```
46
177
 
47
- TypeScript declarations are included.
178
+ Or open the window with `iy` and choose **File → Data Sources**: every built-in collection
179
+ (al-Bukhari, Muslim, Abu Dawud, al-Tirmidhi, al-Nasa'i, Ibn Maja, the Muwatta and three
180
+ forty-hadith books) and the Taqrib import with one click — or **Import all** — in the
181
+ languages you tick. You can add your own files or links there too, and move the data
182
+ folder anywhere you like.
183
+
184
+ On the command line:
185
+
186
+ ```bash
187
+ iy search النيات # Arabic, with or without diacritics
188
+ iy search "niyetlere göre" # Turkish, English, any imported language
189
+ iy chain bukhari 1 # one chain, narrator by narrator
190
+ ```
191
+
192
+ Importing takes a minute or two; the search index and the chains are built as part of it.
193
+
194
+ To identify the narrators in those chains, add Ibn Hajar's *Taqrib al-Tahdhib* — 8,824
195
+ narrators with his verdict on each — from the [OpenITI](https://github.com/OpenITI) corpus:
196
+
197
+ ```bash
198
+ iy import taqrib https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OpenITI/0875AH/master/data/0852IbnHajarCasqalani/0852IbnHajarCasqalani.TaqribTahdhib/0852IbnHajarCasqalani.TaqribTahdhib.JK000121-ara1.completed
199
+ iy narrator الزهري
200
+ ```
201
+
202
+ ---
203
+
204
+ ## 🔎 Search
205
+
206
+ | | |
207
+ |:--|:--|
208
+ | **Arabic without diacritics** | `الاعمال` finds `الأَعْمَالُ`. Alef forms, alef maqsura, hamza seats and ta marbuta are treated alike, so you type the way you normally write |
209
+ | **Attached prefixes** | `النيات` finds `بالنيات`, because Arabic joins bi-, wa-, fa- and al- to the word. *Whole words only* turns this off |
210
+ | **Latin-script text** | Case and accents are ignored: `NIYET`, `niyet` and `nîyet` are one word; `Muʿādh`, `Mu'adh` and `Muadh` too |
211
+ | **Match** | All words, any word, or the exact phrase |
212
+ | **Filters** | Book and language; the language filter also chooses which translations appear |
213
+ | **Grades** | Shown under each hadith with the scholar's name, exactly as given |
214
+ | **Highlighting** | On the original, diacritised text, diacritics included |
215
+
216
+ Results appear at once and fill in as you read; the window never waits for them.
217
+
218
+ ### 👥 Narrators
219
+
220
+ The **Narrators** page lists every narrator of the imported rijal work — 8,824 from Ibn
221
+ Hajar's *Taqrib* — searchable in Arabic or in Latin letters (`Abu Hurayra`, `Zuhri`, `Ibn Umar`),
222
+ and filtered by tabaqa, rank and book. For each narrator: Ibn Hajar's verdict and its rank, the
223
+ tabaqa and death year, the books his hadith appear in, **whom he narrates from and who
224
+ narrates from him** in the imported chains, the compilers who narrate from him directly, and
225
+ every hadith whose chain includes him. On the Isnad Chains page a click on a narrator's name
226
+ opens him here.
227
+
228
+ Each narrator — and each scholar — is shown by the name he is **known by** (al-A'mash, Ibn 'Umar,
229
+ Abu Hurayra), with his full name and every part of it laid out: name, lineage, kunya, by-name,
230
+ nisbas, client of; the part he is known by is marked ★.

- import { searchHadith, getChain, getNarrator } from "isnady";
238
+ The scholars whose work is in the imported data, and what the data measures of it:
239
+ **compilers** (their collection, the teachers their chains begin with, the Companions they end
240
+ with), **graders** (how they grade, and how far they agree with each other on the same hadith —
241
+ agreement, Cohen's kappa, and a strictness index: the classical *mutashaddid* / *mutasahil*,
242
+ measured), and **critics** of narrators (Ibn Hajar's twelve ranks). On Sunan Abi Dawud, for
243
+ example, Zubair 'Ali Za'i grades most strictly (−0.21) and agrees with al-Albani on 70% of the
244
+ hadith; the page also flags a pair of graders whose 98% agreement suggests the source did not keep
245
+ them independent.

53

54
- const results = await searchHadith("النيات", { book: "bukhari" });
55
- const chain = await getChain("bukhari", 1); // narrators and the words linking them
56
- const person = await getNarrator(chain.links[0]); // biography, teachers, students, verdicts
251
+ ### 📚 Books
252
+
253
+ isnady is not only for searching: the **Books** section opens every imported work and reads it in
254
+ its own order. A hadith collection reads chapter by chapter, each hadith with its card (chain,
255
+ narrators, other narrations, grades) and the languages you choose; Ibn Hajar's *Taqrib* reads
256
+ letter by letter and name by name, each entry with its narrator a click away. Find within a
257
+ chapter, go to the previous or next one, and isnady remembers where you were. From any search
258
+ result, **In its book** opens the hadith where it stands, among the hadith of its chapter.
259
+
260
+ Books are not tied to hadith collections: a work is a tree of any depth (volume, book, chapter,
261
+ section) whose leaves are hadith, narrators' entries or paragraphs — so the commentaries, manuals
262
+ of fiqh and other works of the scholars can be read the same way as they are added.
263
+

275
+ ### 🕌 Shia Rijal
276
+
277
+ The Imami tradition's judgments on narrators, on its own terms: al-Najashi's *Rijal* — 1,266
278
+ authors and narrators — read along the two axes of the Imami critics, **reliability** (thiqa;
279
+ praised — *jalil*, *wajh*, *'ayn*; weak) and **creed** (Imami, or Waqifi, Fathi, Zaydi, *'ammi* …),
280
+ which together give the classical four: an Imami *thiqa*, a praised narrator (*mamduh*), a *thiqa*
281
+ of another school (*muwaththaq*), a weak one. The critic's own words are always shown; a creed he
282
+ does not state stays unknown; nothing is mapped onto Ibn Hajar's twelve ranks. Checked on four
283
+ blind samples of entries, each round's misses corrected. The book itself reads in **Books**, and
284
+ the Shia narrators are kept apart from the (Sunni) chains: no chain link is matched to them.
285
+

288

289

290
+ Next: al-Tusi's *Rijal* and *Fihrist*, al-'Allama al-Hilli's *Khulasat al-aqwal*, Ibn Dawud's
291
+ *Rijal*, al-Kashshi's reports, and the Four Books with their chains.

61
294
 
62
- ## 🔗 Links
295
+ Choose **Match → By meaning (AI)** to find hadith that say the same thing in other words or in
296
+ another language: `komşu hakları` finds the hadith on the neighbour's rights, a Turkish sentence
297
+ finds its Arabic original, and `إنما الأعمال بالنيات` gathers the narrations of the hadith on
298
+ intentions from every imported book. Each result shows how close it is in meaning (0–1), which
299
+ says nothing about authenticity.

301
+ The model is learnt on your computer from the texts you imported — Arabic beside its
302
+ translations is a parallel corpus, and cross-lingual latent semantic analysis learns the
303
+ concepts the languages share. Nothing is downloaded and no outside model is used. Measured on
304
+ al-Bukhari and Abu Dawud: for hadith the model never saw while learning, a Turkish translation
305
+ finds its Arabic original first 68% of the time and among the first ten 93% of the time (chance:
306
+ 0.8%). For an exact quotation the ordinary word search stays the better tool.
307
+
308
+ The same step finds the **other narrations of each hadith** across the imported books
309
+ (takhrij): every result card says where else it is narrated — *Also narrated in: Sahih
310
+ al-Bukhari 5070 · 6689 · 6953 | Sunan Abi Dawud 2201* — and each number opens that hadith.
311
+ Only the texts are compared, never the chains; upright numbers share the text, italic ones
312
+ probably report the same event from the same Companion. In blind, hand-checked samples 34 of
313
+ 35 pairs of the first kind and 18 of 20 of the second were right.

324
+ ## 🔗 Chains of transmission
325
+
326
+ Every Arabic text is read for its chain:
327
+
328
+ ```
329
+ Sahih al Bukhari 1
330
+ 1. حدثنا (narrated to us) الْحُمَيْدِيُّ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ
331
+ 2. حدثنا (narrated to us) سُفْيَانُ
332
+ 3. حدثنا (narrated to us) يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ
333
+ 4. أخبرني (informed me) مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ التَّيْمِيُّ
334
+ 5. سمع (heard) عَلْقَمَةَ بْنَ وَقَّاصٍ اللَّيْثِيَّ
335
+ 6. سمعت (I heard) عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ
336
+ -> the Prophet
337
+ ```
338
+
339
+ In the window, each result shows its chain as a row of names ending at the Prophet, and
340
+ **View chain** opens it as a timeline from the book to the Prophet, with the Arabic text
341
+ below: the chain in lighter ink, the text of the hadith in full ink.
342
+
343
+ ### 👤 Who each narrator is
344
+
345
+ With Ibn Hajar's *Taqrib al-Tahdhib* imported, every name in a chain is matched to a
346
+ narrator, and the chain shows what Ibn Hajar says of him: his verdict in his own words, its
347
+ rank on Ibn Hajar's twelve-step scale, the narrator's *tabaqa* (generation) and his death
348
+ year.
349
+
350
+ A name is linked only when the evidence leaves one person: the words of the name, the book
351
+ marks (a narrator in al-Bukhari must be one Ibn Hajar marks خ), the order of generations
352
+ along the chain, and the last link before the Prophet being a Companion. When several
353
+ narrators remain — "Sufyan" can be al-Thawri or Ibn 'Uyayna — the chain says so and names
354
+ how many, rather than choosing one. Today about half of all names are identified; in blind,
355
+ hand-checked samples of the identified ones, the last fifty were all correct.
356
+
357
+ Names are kept exactly as written, with the clarifications the compilers added
358
+ (*"— yaʿnī Ibn Muḥammad —"*, *"mawlā Ibn ʿAbbās"*), because identifying each narrator is
359
+ a separate step that comes next.
360
+
361
+ <details>
362
+ <summary><b>📊 How well it reads today</b></summary>
363
+ <br>
364
+
365
+ Measured on Sahih al-Bukhari and Sunan Abi Dawud (12,852 chains):
366
+
367
+ | | Bukhari | Abu Dawud | Both |
368
+ |:--|:--:|:--:|:--:|
369
+ | Split into narrators | 85.5% | 71.9% | 79.9% |
370
+ | Of those, reaching the Prophet | | | 78.3% |
371
+ | Narrators per chain | | | 5.0 |
372
+
373
+ In a blind, hand-checked sample of 30 chains: **no wrong narrator**, 27 complete.
374
+
375
+ The rest are kept whole, each with its reason: *tahwil* (ح, a second chain joining), two
376
+ teachers at one link (*qiran*), a second chain after the first, or wording that could not be
377
+ read with confidence. Abu Dawud uses *qiran* and *tahwil* far more often than Bukhari, which
378
+ is why its share is lower. One known limit: a last narrator introduced only by *qāla*
379
+ ("قال قال عبد الله") is not added, because the same words also begin stories.

385
+ ## 🎓 Educational by Design
386
+
387
+ isnady teaches the science it uses. Every transmission term in a chain explains itself:
388
+
389
+ | Term | Reads | What the critics took it to mean |
390
+ |:--:|:--|:--|
391
+ | حدثنا | narrated to us | The teacher recited it to a group: heard directly |
392
+ | حدثني | narrated to me | Recited to the narrator alone: heard directly |
393
+ | أخبرنا | informed us | Often a text read back to the teacher (*ʿarḍ*) |
394
+ | أنبأنا | told us | Later often transmission by permission (*ijāza*) |
395
+ | سمعت | I heard | Direct hearing, stated explicitly |
396
+ | قرأت على | I read to | The narrator read the text back to the teacher |
397
+ | عن | from | Does not say how it was received (*ʿanʿana*); connected when the two could have met and the narrator is not known for *tadlīs* |
398
+ | أن | that | Treated by most critics like ʿan (*muʾannan*) |
399
+
400
+ The Learn section — hadith terminology, grading, *jarḥ wa taʿdīl* and the classical works,
401
+ each shown on real hadith and real chains — is on the roadmap.

405
+ ## 🎨 Appearance
406
+
407
+ Every script has its own reading font, size, colour and line spacing — Arabic, Latin,
408
+ Cyrillic, Bengali and Tamil today, more as sources in other scripts arrive. The light and
409
+ the dark theme each keep their own colours, and the interface font can be changed too.
410
+ **Edit → Preferences** (Ctrl + ,) applies every change at once; each row has its own
411
+ Default button.

416
+
417
+ The same settings from the command line:
418
+
419
+ ```bash
420
+ iy config list --prefix text.arabic # what is set, and what is changed
421
+ iy config set text.arabic.size 22
422
+ iy config set text.latin.family "Noto Serif"
423
+ iy config set colors.dark.gilt "#5A4A1E" # matched words in the dark theme
424
+ iy config reset text.arabic # back to the defaults
425
+ ```
426

427
+ Settings live in `settings.json` in the isnady data folder, shared by the window and the
428
+ command line.

431
+
432
+ ## 📚 Data and licences
433
+
434
+ isnady reads open formats and keeps the source of everything:
435
+
436
+ - **Supported now:** the [fawazahmed0/hadith-api](https://github.com/fawazahmed0/hadith-api)
437
+ JSON format, from a file or a URL, with or without authentication (username and
438
+ password, bearer token, or API key; credentials are never stored).
439
+ - **Rijal:** Ibn Hajar's *Taqrib al-Tahdhib* in OpenITI mARkdown — each narrator's name,
440
+ kunya, verdict, rank, tabaqa, death year and book marks, read by the rules Ibn Hajar sets
441
+ out in his own introduction. The OpenITI release does not state its licence in the
442
+ repository, so it is kept as tier C (used on your computer, never redistributed) until
443
+ it is confirmed.
444
+ - **Coming:** CSV, SQL/SQLite, OpenITI mARkdown, REST APIs and Shamela, so any collection
445
+ you have can be brought in.
446
+
447
+ Every source records a licence **tier**: **A** may be redistributed, **B** may be
448
+ redistributed under its conditions, **C** may not. Sources you add yourself stay on your
449
+ computer. **Help → Licences** lists every source in your database with its licence.

454
+
455
+ Everything the window does also works without it — on a server, over SSH, or in a
456
+ script. The command line never loads Qt.

515
+ ## 🗺️ Roadmap
516
+
517
+ - **Narrators** — the other half of the names identified through teachers and students
518
+ (al-Mizzi's *Tahdhib al-Kamal*), the verdicts of other critics beside Ibn Hajar's, and
519
+ whether each link could have met the next.
520
+ - **Hadith scholars** — their lives in full, and more scholars as more collections and grades
521
+ are imported.
522
+ - **Shia rijal** — narrator verdicts from the Shia rijal works, beside the Sunni view.
523
+ - **Learn** — the sciences of hadith, shown on real hadith and real chains.
524
+ - **More sources and formats** — and adding your own from inside the window.
525
+ - **Glossary** — every Arabic term of hadith and the Islamic sciences explained where it
526
+ appears: hover or click a term, read its meaning in the interface language.
527
+ - **isnady.net** — the same engine on the web.

531
+ ## 🔁 Versions and releases
532
+
533
+ One version number on GitHub, PyPI and npm, always. A release builds the Python package and the Windows,
534
+ Linux and macOS applications first; only when every build succeeds is anything published — PyPI, then the
535
+ [GitHub Release](https://github.com/bayramkotan/isnady/releases) with every file and its checksum. What each
536
+ version brought is in the [CHANGELOG](https://github.com/bayramkotan/isnady/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md). The
537
+ README on npm is made from this one.
538
+
539
+ ## 🏗️ Build from Source
540
+
541
+ ```bash
542
+ git clone https://github.com/bayramkotan/isnady.git
543
+ cd isnady
544
+ pip install -e .
545
+ iy
546
+ ```
547
+
548
+ Python 3.10 or newer and PySide6. The command line alone needs no PySide6.
549
+
550
+ ---
551
+
552
+
553
+ The desktop application of your own system: `pip install ".[ai]" pyinstaller`, then
554
+ `python packaging/build_app.py linux|windows|macos VERSION` (Windows also needs Inno Setup).
