A Novel Hadith Authentication Mobile System for Android and iOS Phones with Arabic to English Language Translation

Abstract

This paper endeavors to create a groundbreaking Hadith authentication mobile system providing Arabic to Malay translation for Android and iOS devices. The background highlights the importance of Hadith in Islamic tradition and the challenges Malay-speaking Muslims face in accessing authentic Hadith resources. The problem statement underscores the language barrier, authenticity concerns, and the lack of comprehensive mobile solutions. The paper's objectives encompass developing the mobile system, implementing authentication criteria, offering user-friendly features, and enhancing access to authentic Hadith sources. The paper's significance lies in providing access to authentic Hadith, promoting authentication, and empowering the Malay-speaking Muslim community. The scope includes essential app features and authentication algorithms, while limitations pertain to language support, authentication variability, resource constraints, translation nuances, and continuous updates. This paper aspires to bridge the gap in Hadith accessibility and contribute to a deeper understanding of Islamic tradition among Malay-speaking Muslims. This paper explores the issue of Hadith authentication and scrutiny, focusing on critical scholars' impressions and the standard used by Hadith compilers. The system uses a client-server architecture and combines web and mobile technologies for administrative and public access. The web interface uses Springboot for Java, while the mobile interface uses React Native for cross-platform applications. The system communicates through rest services and is validated using statistical analysis. The paper also translates authentic Hadith from Arabic to Malay language.
