Descripción

Ask any Islamic question and get an answer researched across thousands of classical books, with openable citations — copied for Indonesian, Malay, Turkish and Urdu speakers. What the benchmark does: Qaf searches the Shamela library of 8,000+ classical Islamic books, reads relevant passages and returns answers with openable citations (book, author, passage); it verifies Qur'an and hadith references and shows differing scholarly views.…

iOS, Android and web. Why replicable: Retrieval over a public-domain classical corpus with citations is a small RAG build; the language gap (Indonesia alone has ~240M Muslims) is real. But correctness risk is high and big players (Muslim Pro) already ship AI features. Monetization: Freemium subscription (unlimited questions, saved research), Ramadan premium packs; no ads on religious answers. Build: 2–3 agent-weeks (RAG over public-domain corpus, citations UI, ID/MS/TR/UR prompts); stack: Next.js on Vercel; Postgres + pgvector (Supabase); public-domain classical texts; LLM API; RevenueCat/Stripe. GTM: SEO/GEO pages per common question in each language; shareable cited answer cards; faceless short clips.

Cliente objetivo

Muslims in Indonesia, Malaysia, Turkey and Pakistan who want cited answers in their own language; diaspora in Europe.

Problema

Retrieval over a public-domain classical corpus with citations is a small RAG build; the language gap (Indonesia alone has ~240M Muslims) is real. But correctness risk is high and big players (Muslim Pro) already ship AI features.
