Research Hadith, authenticity, grading, Takhrij and Sharh [commentaries] in Claude Desktop for free.
Overview
A Claude Desktop extension that lets an assistant search Dorar.net for hadith, checking authenticity, grading, chains of narration and commentaries.
- What you can do
- Search Dorar.net for hadith by Arabic text or translation and retrieve the matching narration with its attested wording, in Arabic, English or another language of your choice, relayed as it appears on the site rather than reinterpreted by the model. Explore the isnād (chain of narration) and takhrīj, including the number of books a hadith appears in. Read scholarly grading of a hadith by individual scholars and commentaries (sharḥ and explanations).
- When to use it
- Useful when you want to verify a hadith, look up its authenticity or grading, trace its chain of narration, or read scholarly commentary, without leaving the Claude Desktop chat window.
- Requirements
- Runs as a local extension inside Claude Desktop only; install the packaged extension file and fully restart the app afterwards. No account, API key or environment variable is declared. Network access to Dorar.net is needed for results.

Hadith Checker — Research & Analyse Hadith in Claude
[image].
Use this free Claude extension to search and research ahadith through Dorar.net directly in Claude Desktop [also free to use]. Search for Hadith, explore isnād [chain of narration] and Takhrīj, read commentaries (Sharḥ and explanations), check scholarly grading of ahadeeth, and more in Arabic, English & any language of your choice.
Just use your normal claude desktop's chat window and ask away. Rest assured, the tool is strictly restricted from self interpreting results and instead gives you the exact result as it would appear on the scholarly run dorar.net website so you don't have to worry about ai interference.

Before You Start: How to Get Accurate Results
This connector is designed to relay dorar.net's search results faithfully, in full, in both Arabic and English but it can also translate/reply in your choice of language [malay, urdu, bangla, italian, turkish etc] A few things affect whether it does that correctly:
-
Always try to paste the Arabic text of the hadith you're checking - it's faster & precise. Searching with an English translation also works: For best results with English input, make sure your translation is accurate and close to the original hadith and not loosely worded because a rough paraphrase makes it harder to find the correct attested Arabic wording.
-
IMP --> Always append the prompt/ wording "using dorar" or using the dorar tool" [in your chat] for the correct response It will give you everything with this prompt [authenticity, number of books this hadith is found in, grading by each scholar, commentary options, etc]. You don't have to type anything extra. Scroll down to see the screenshots
-
Saved memory/preferences from other conversations can silently affect this tool. If you've previously told Claude something like "don't bother checking ahadeeth already in Bukhari and Muslim," then that instruction can carry into a conversation using this connector and cause Claude to give you a shortened summary instead of the full result. If you notice unexpectedly brief or summarized results, check Claude's memory/saved preferences (in Settings) for anything that might be overriding this tool's behaviour, and consider either deleting it or adding an explicit command overriding that preference when you use the dorar tool
4.It's always better to use a new chat for different ahadith. Long chat sessions can carry over context from earlier in the same conversation (including earlier, different tool calls), which can affect later results.
