The sermons project is all about making khutbas from the Islamic World programmatically accessible to developers and the wider community.
This is done by making the mp3, pdf and document files available for khutbas on the Islamic Network CDN and providing a static JSON API
which is essentially a traversable map of the khutba files on the CDN.
API
The API is split up into sources, languages and years. Currently, the only source is UAE Awqaf.
Sources
To see all sources: https://sermons.islamic.network/api/sources.json.
Each source can be traversed using its handle and the year you would like to access khutbas for.
