[Iman Rashidun] Qimat Altawadue

Qimat Altawadue

(The Height of Modesty)

 

'Many among the people have misunderstood the truth of the Seven Skies, and falsehood has spread like a shadow upon the hearts of the creation.'

'They say, “Only the sons of Horen may enter the paradise of God,” and by this lie, they have cast doubt into the souls of others.'

'Because of this claim, the Mali, the Uruk, the Dwed, and others have grown uncertain, wondering if their souls shall be cast into ruin, though their hearts are pure.'

'Some have wandered from the path, seeking answers where there are none, and others have turned away entirely in despair.'

'But your lord is Just, and He is not bound by blood, nor race, nor name. He looks not at your form, but at your heart and your deeds.'

'Know then the truth: the Seven Skies are open to all who are righteous, who submit to Allah with sincerity, and whose hearts are free from pride and falsehood.'

Khawla was never born into luxury, life was always a motion. Constantly moving from place to place, since she was a child. Khawla remembers the days when Israa, her sister, was born. When the tides changed for her and the tribe, she witnessed the fall of grace from other fellow far folk, the Hyspians and qalasheen similarly. Where Hyspians denounced and rejected them, pushing them from their homes and declaring themselves as rulers of the sands, Orcs, Honorable kin of Krug, were sought out by her fellow tribes men, also were rejected, left at their front gates to starve. Khawla never knew luxury. Yet ALLAH showed her a palace bigger than one with walls and roof. One which she too saw it as a grand home. Among her brothers and sisters, she found the world. Vast and open for them to tread upon, The Lord's palace, his own creation, and his own people. The land provided for them, and they in return took care of it, Khawla took care of it.

It was then she learnt humility, to be thankful for the things she has, and her tribe can afford. For the little victories and the greater lessons learnt in defeat. In the end, Khawla never knew luxury, and she did not wish to know.

When she reached twenty-seven summers, that after a harsh autumn, she reflected on past events, her rage and dissatisfaction were rooted in her loneliness, her vacuum of solace. In her lab she cooped up constantly making medicines and remedies for ailments to other people's problems, and in such cases, she did not know how to solve her own problems, her own ailments. Did the lord forsake her for such selfish prayers, did she do something wrong, was she a bad woman for treating other guests incorrectly or judging them so harshly for how they acted or who they were(?). Was she wrong for having people killed for insulting her, did they deserve it?

 

Was she good enough, was she worthy to be what her family is known for?

In these times, she pondered these questions, what it might be that Allah has in store for her. Khawla could not wait any longer. As such, with the Sheiks blessing, and his assistance she prepared and set out for her Pilgrimage, her own Umrah. 

 

It is then, she came upon her first stop, as she broke through the Holy elven Protectorates forest, she ascended its hills, and saw the mountains of the North, beyond them, lies the safest passage towards the Imperial Province of Norland. The Home of the North men, The Highlanders.

Khawla ascended the mountain, bit by bit. Her steed steadily took each step of the steep cliffside road. Until they reached the peak, a banner on the top swayed as cold air blew across it. The clouds broke through the mountain, and the moonlit sky shone down upon her, it was beautiful. Stars shone and glimmered like a sea of jellyfish. To her, this was the most enchanting sight she's ever witnessed. Understandably so, she set camp. Allowing herself and her steed to rest. There, she began to write her first letter, a falcon flew and landed next to her, seemingly also resting. The sight of it reminded her about her brothers. It reminded her that the first two months have passed since she began her journey to the Temple of Radiance.
 

However, the day ended, and so she prayed, and then began to write her first letter.

Brother...

In my ventures I have witnessed the world, travelling through the clean streets of Caurost and ascending their hills, I witnessed much of Allah's work. It was brimming with greenery, it made me ponder why many sit in their homes, and do not themselves go out more often to enjoy the many little things hidden amongst the tree trunks and rocks. When I ascended the cliffs of the elven outskirts, I saw the mountains in which I planned to climb to reach where Allah is closest to the world, and when I did, I saw the world of which baba spoke of. Do you remember?

The bedtime stories of the great heros in which we both aspired to be, whether in the battlefield or in grand professions like medicine and exploration. Where Amin aspired to be a great scholar and sheik, and you- a great warrior, and I- A great servant of our people, he spoke of how these people traversed our world, and how they used it for the betterment of their purpose. It was in this mountain I remembered his words; "The Sky isn't a limit, but a goal to go above and beyond for." Do you still believe that is the case?

I witness stars, arrayed and scattered over a purple sky, and the moon shining brighter than ever before. I was enamoured with this land, and I hope to meet new people in my adventure. Who knows what Allah has in store for me, but I am thankful for everything he has already given me. I hope all is well back at home, I can in fact hear the drumming of distant marching from the elves below in Caurost. I do not know what it is they're planning, but I hope all is well at home. After tonight, I embark for Norland. Stay safe, and be well, make sure you keep Jazaa'aa out of any trouble, and keep Thomas safe, I hope his arm is working out as intended!

Your beloved Uhkti

Jaza’aa’s nose would still be aching to this day. (And his Crown Jewels)

Amin mutter in his bed, sweat pouring down his face as pain etch its claws on him, still his hand raise weakly calling out to his lord “Ya Allah, protect those closest to me and guide them toward you…” his hand shake violently as tears drip from cheek soaking his beard 

 

“Ya Allah grant me the strength to see through what you have ordained.”

(I did the best with crappy internet and on the road! Love you guys!)
