Editorial policy

We publish a narrow set of widely-accepted adhkar. Everything cites a primary source. Nothing pretends to be a scholarly ruling.

What we publish

  • Adhkar attested in the Qur'an or in the widely-accepted Sunni hadith collections (Sahih al-Bukhari, Sahih Muslim, and the four Sunan).
  • Only the wording and count that are directly in the cited source.
  • Short, literal English translations, edited from widely-published English editions.

What we do not publish

  • Interpretive rulings (whether an act is required, recommended, or permissible).
  • Content that requires scholarly reconciliation between conflicting narrations.
  • Machine-translated religious text.
  • Testimonials, endorsements, or claims of scholarly approval that we do not have.

Review status

Every entry in the library shows a review status and a last-reviewed date. Until a qualified reviewer is retained, every entry is labelled "sourced, pending scholarly review."This is deliberate honesty: the words and sources are correct; a formal scholarly review has not yet been performed. When a reviewer is retained, their name and the review date will appear on each reviewed page.

Corrections

If you find a mistake in wording, transliteration, translation, or source, please write to us at hello@sibha.app. Corrections are versioned in our source repository.

Terminology and script

  • Transliteration uses a light, readable Latin-script convention with diacritics on long vowels.
  • Arabic uses fully-vocalised script in the Amiri typeface.
