Summary description: An easy way to typeset Hadith text using XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX

Announcement text: ------------------------------------------------------------------------

A new package, hadith, provides an easy way to typeset Hadith text
with full Arabic diacritics (tashkeel) from the canonical collections
of Islamic tradition in XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX documents.
The package is modeled after the quran package and follows
the same architecture: text data in .def files, macros in .sty.

The package includes 7 collections (36,390 hadiths total):
Sahih al-Bukhari, Sahih Muslim, Sunan Abi Dawud, Jami at-Tirmidhi,
Sunan an-Nasa'i, Sunan Ibn Majah, and Muwatta Malik.
English translations and hadith authenticity grades are included.

Key features include on-demand chapter loading to avoid TeX
memory limits, case-insensitive collection names, inline citation
commands, and metadata commands for section/chapter names.
The package requires XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX with the bidi and
polyglossia packages.
