Idea: verse-level SHA-256 integrity manifest so consumers can verify text #70
Description
Hi — I built a verse-level SHA-256 checksum manifest for the Uthmani Quran text (Ḥafṣ ʿan ʿĀṣim): every surah:ayah maps to a hash of its canonical text, rolled up into per-surah and whole-mushaf root hashes.
Since this API serves Quran text to many downstream apps, a published integrity manifest could let consumers verify that the text they fetched/cached/bundled is exactly the canonical text — any corruption or tampering becomes detectable automatically, like a checksum on a download.
Repo with the manifest, generate/verify scripts, and format spec: https://github.com/spqrxi/quranchecksum
It's built on the Tanzil Uthmani text (verified against the Madinah Mushaf/KFGQPC). Happy to adapt the format, or generate manifests for the specific editions this API serves, if there's interest.
