01The challenge
Verses and hadith are shared every day with a dropped word, a wrong diacritic or a false attribution. Ordinary search tools answer "give me the verse"; they do not answer the question a publisher needs: "someone wrote this text, where does it differ from the source?"
The danger in this field is that AI itself becomes a source of error: a language model that rephrases the text or rules on a hadith without basis.
02What we built
We built the platform on one principle: the language model only proposes where a quotation sits, and a deterministic state machine decides by literal matching against authoritative sources. The verdict does not change whichever model is used.
Each quotation gets a clear status: found, partial match, needs review, or not found in our sources. The difference is shown letter by letter with diacritics, and the platform never rewrites the text or generates religious text.
It runs as a website, a Telegram bot, an API for organisations, and an MCP server that lets AI assistants check their quotations before showing them.
03The outcome
A published product with several interfaces that all return the same result, entered in the AI in Service of Islamic Content challenge.
