Hehe

Eid Mubarak! Eid Mubarak to everyone! Once Again I am running a little late but hey! Better late then never! Eid Mubarak to everyone, I want to genuinely say thanks to everyone here because this year, you guys smashed the challenge harder than I seen in my many(to many) years on LOTC. You guys have spread happiness and thoughtfulness this month, and I couldn't be more proud of you all! Now, for those who haven't been in the loop, Every year I post a Ramadan post, A last ten nights Post, and finally an EID post, well here we are! Now What is Eid? Eid Al-Fitr Is the Islamic Holiday and celebration after the Holy month of Ramadan, Think of it as a graduation ceremony, Where muslims celebrate completing the Month of Fasting, where everyone goes to see family, have feasts, and exchange gifts, So a kind of Muslim Christmas(except different reason of celebration). Now, I know this Eid Post is quite short. There is a reason for that, and that is my own personal health, and I pushed myself a lillll bit too much past week against better judgment. None the less Eid Mubarak everyone, I love you all, and I am glad to have you guys as my internet community and Family. This community has helped me in more ways I can think of, and I'd not be who I am without this generous, kind hearted community.

The Last Ten Nights At last, The last ten nights of Ramadan is here! I apologize for making this late, I was ill and haven't had the strength to write but i'm pushing through it! So For those that dont know, we are in the month of Ramadan, Each Ramadan, i make a post about what Ramadan is, the last ten nights, and finally EID. So, here we are, The last ten nights! Now I can as always hear you all ask “Ibraheem, You psychotic Shawarma eating, Sheep stealing, Cool beard wearing amazing man that you are! WHAT IS THE LAST TEN NIGHTS? AND WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS!?” Well you mineman enjoyer! Have no fear! I am about to tell you! As Muslims, we believe that during the last ten nights of Ramadan, there is a special night known as the Night of Power, when Allah (God) descends to the lowest heaven, hears and grants all supplications made by the believers, and forgives their sins. Although the exact date of this blessed night is unknown, we are certain that it falls within the last ten nights. During the Night of Power, the blessings and mercy of Allah are abundant, and the angels are dispatched to carry out His commands. This is a momentous occasion when our prayers are readily accepted, and we are encouraged to seek forgiveness for our sins. It is a time to be proactive in doing good deeds, to give charity, and to refrain from evil. The rewards for our actions during this month are multiplied, so even a small act of kindness or a smile can bring us great reward. Don't miss out on this glorious opportunity to increase your blessings and rewards. Now your Challenge for this Ramadan post, is get this, your going to go and emote a smile at someone, Can be who ever you wish! Remember a smile is charity, So go smile at people! If you cant right now, Just emote it in the comments, IF YOU CAN go online, TAKE A SCREENSHOT AND SEND IT! LETS GOOOO!!

Thank you guys very much, this was extremely helpful <3

Helloo, sorry I'm not keeping track with lotc stuff as of Ramadan rn. But I do have a question, as your last remark confused me, as don't they counter one another. Not witch hunting people for past long ago mistakes, but also doing it because that mistake is still bad. Are we witch hunting or no?? I'm not like countering or supporting either or, I am just hoping for a clarification. Anyone mind giving me a nice little short explanation of what's going on and what's the new rules that would be great <3

On behalf of a restricted Player btw(you know who you are)

@APurrfectNobody I love you dear, may our fasts be good, and you always lighten up my days when the world comes shadowing it

I love you, and miss you habib

Ramadan Mubarak It is time again, and once again like the many years, I am here making a Ramadan post. Happy Ramadan to the Muslim community on our Beloved Mineman Rp server, To those who are not aware, some of them will disappear this month fully to focus on this very happy month, And to celebrate this occasion every year, I make a forum post congratulating Ramadan, a last ten days of Ramadan post, and than a Eid post. In these post I explain to our beloved Old, New players what Ramadan is! Now without further Adieu, Here it goes! What is Ramadan? Ramadan is the Month in the Islamic Lunar Calendar in which the Holy Quran was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad, In this month, Muslims from around the world fast from Dusk till Dawn, Aka From Sunrise till Sunset! They Do not drink Water, Eat food, or consume anything, and dedicate their time in reciting the Quran, Dhikr, And make a heavy effort to do charity and good Acts and Deeds. In Ramadan, Muslims believe the Devil is locked up, and it is a good time to break bad happens and begin good ones, and a single good deed is multiplied by Seventy(Even A smile Is a charity, this a good deed). They begin their fast before sunrise, by eating Sahoor, which is breakfast, then they pray Fajir a few minutes before the sun rises, at the end, at sunset, they pray Maghrib, and then they break their fast often times with a Date, and water, and then eat whatever dinner there is. What is the Purpose of Ramadan? The Purpose of Ramadan is to become closer with God firstly, Secondly it is to better oneself, to stop bad habits, learn new things, and do good deeds, Thirdly it is to put oneself into a position of the miskeen(The Unfortunate), those who have no food at all, no homes, and are suffering, This is a month of remembrance of God and our blessings, and to share those blessings. What are the Benefits of Ramadan Not only this, Fasting in this certain way is actually SUPER healthy for you!(Do note, you are exempt from fasting if you poor, on your time of the month(women stuff), medical needs such as medicine or emergencies, and if you vomit and extra, please consult with your local imam for more details or look online, TDLR Fast if you are able, and do not fast if you cannot medically) Fasting actually super healthy for you, a matter of fact in Ramadan, you are not supposed to have giant feasts, but small healthy dinners, and not overeat, a common mistake which takes place when fasting, because people fast all day and when they can break their fast, they go all in with a huge plate, instead they should eat small portions and healthy foods, this is heavily encouraged. Now what does fasting do to the body if done properly? I'm glad you asked! This will make you self care people very happy, and those chads who like to go to the gym and get fit! When you fast in this way, it actually detoxes the body. Now here is the breakdown of each stage of the thirty days of fasting! Stage 1, during the first couple of days of fasting both blood sugar level and blood pressure level drops, and the body begins the cleansing process, the first few days are the hardest as they are usually accompanied with headaches, dizziness, nausea and intense hunger. Stage 2, during the second stage, the body becomes accustomed to the fasting schedule, and the digestive system is able to rest. The Digestive system’s energy now focuses on cleansing the body and healing the cells as the white blood cells start to become more active. During this stage the organs start their repair process as well. Stage 3, by the third stage energy levels will have increased, your mind is able to concentrate better, and a overall feeling of wellness, During fasting the body’s healing process becomes more efficient, and so the body repairs any damaged cells during this stage, during this stage the colon, liver, kidney, lungs and skin are detoxing by eliminating toxins. Stage 4, during the last ten days of fasting, the body has become accustomed to the fasting process, your body becomes more energetic and you experience of improved memory and concentration, at this stage the organs are finishing up their healing process and once all toxics are removed the body is able to function at it’s maximum capacity. These are just SOME of the physical benefits of fasting that will take place in the body. But your good deeds you do this month will feel FAR better than anything you do this month! THIS YEAR’S RAMADAN CHALLENGE! So for those who don’t know, Every year, I post a Ramadan Challenge that can be partook by all players muslim, and Non Muslim, Last year, you all blew the Ramadan challenge out of the water, so HERE WE GO AGAIN! REMEMBER A SINGLE GOOD DEED is MUlTIPLIED BY 70! So even a complement is a good deed! I want you to ping some on in this thread, and tell them one nice compliment about themselves, Be it their great pvp skills, Their amazing emotes, Great personality, or just being an amazing person! Happy Ramadan everyone, And here finally is your Ramadan meme!

No injuries' good luck getting him and getting paid."

♩♫♩ Al-Saqr Allah The Falcon’s of Allah [!] A depiction of the Al-Saqr Allah on March back to the Emirate from serving in a foreign war. History The Al-Saqr Allah is the Army of the Emirate of the Mountain Oasis, made up of Volunteers and Conscripts of the Emirate, it holds a deep history and links to its nations predecessors. A religious army by most definition, though with the allowance of non-believers to partake and join it, the army holds quite a variety of Ranks, Jobs, and Opportunities one could ask for, where slaves could rise to honorable positions, and nobles humbled to the average foot soldier. Formed when the great sandstorm sent by Allah took the Fakhr Oasis, the wandering refugees found their home upon the Mountain Oasis, settling it and forming their military to defend themselves from the constant growth of enemies and undead roaming the sands. Having sent even an exploratory regiment to go partake in several Jihads and Wars around the world From the War against the Undead, to the Balian-Aaun war, To the War of the Foreigners, to gain experience, and now a fearsome reputation of highly disciplined and dedicated warriors, ready to lay down their lives for Allah and Emirate. Benefits The benefits of joining the Al-Saqr Allah has a great variety, such as payment for honorable deeds, Gaining high prominent status within the Emirate, 50% tax reduction, and Acquiring reputation and respect and much more. Conscription The Emir of the Emirate holds the right to conscript anyone of the emirate into his army, be it for punishment, or in times of need for the country such as invasion or war, often viewed by the Emirate’s people as a honorable task to serve the greater Emirate. Conscription of the Falcon Conscription of the Falcon, though uncommon within the Emirate, is the conscription of the youth by The Janissary Captain, selecting Slaves or children of the Emirate. It is one of the only ways to join the Fursaan Al-Saqr, otherwise known as the Knights of The Falcon, or the Janissary Corp. Though the life of these conscripts to enter such a prestigious corp holds a high mortality rate due to it’s in depth system to create ‘the perfect soldier’. Though with such conscription comes a high level of respect due in the Emirate, for once passing and being brought to the rank of Janissary, it is an Achievement like no other, and certainly demands the respect for difficulty to achieve such. High Command Qa’id The Qa’id is appointed by the Emir to be the General of the Military. He oversees the Military and makes sure it's in check. He will also lead troops into battle in the Emir's name. He speaks with the Emir's authority and can only be overruled by the Emir himself. __________________________________________________ Fursaan Al-Saqr -Janissary Captain [Captain Of the Emir’s Elite Guards] The Janissary Captain Is the head officer In the Janissary Guard, He is selected by the Emir himself, chosen for his amazing prowess in combat and leadership. They make sure the Janissaries are kept in order and well taken care of. These men are officers and take orders directly from the Qa’id and Emir. They have full authority to command and order all ranks that are Janissary and under. These men are tasked to recruit and are drillmasters. Only the Emir himself can promote people to this rank. They can order the Janissaries and all ranks and are the highest rank one can get under the rank of Qa’id, though it's not uncommon for a Janissary Captain to also be the Qa’id. -Janissary [Emir’s Elite Guards] The Janissary are the elite guard of the Emir and all of the Emirate. They serve not only as the personal guard of the Emir and the royal family but also may conduct regular city patrols as well as lead the vanguard in times of war. Becoming a Janissary requires years of training and studying. Those who hold the true virtues of an honorable and pious warrior are made into a Janissary. Janissaries are usually conscripted at their youth to allow them to train early on, expected to fulfill the requirements right as they reach adulthood, but it's not out of the ordinary if an Al-Saqr Allah is given the opportunity to become a Janissary. These men have the authority to command others under their ranking. Only the Emir or The Janissary Captain can promote people to this rank. __________________________________________________ Common ranks -Senior Raqib [Sergeant] -Junior Raqib [Sergeant] -Raqib [Sergeant] The Raqib directly commands the Areef and all below it, so by extension it holds command over the Jundi. Known for their battle prowess and skills in leadership and combat. -Senior Areef [Corporal] -Junior Areef [Corporal] -Areef [Corporal] The Areef is the first rank with authority. Holding command over the Jundi, they are known for their discipline and eagerness for orders. -Senior Jundi [Private] -Junior Jundi [Private] -Jundi [Private] The Jundi are the most devoted and steadfast common of the main force. The men are experienced through fighting battles and are well-disciplined. -Senior Muharib [Oathed] -Junior Muharib [Oathed] -Muharib [Oathed] The Muharib is the lowest military rank, with no actual authority except for the claim of being better than the untrained recruits. Once one becomes a Muharib, they are considered accepted into the military ranks and the soldier is then able to reach higher ranks. -Alwafid [Un-Oathed/Enlist] The Alwafid are the new un-oathed recruits of the Al-Saqr Allah and are required to be oathed by the set oathing standards. If the Alwafid is not oathed, they may not receive any additional ranking. Alwafid who are looking to work around the foreign tax must wait to be oathed. Sub-Ranks Each soldier that wishes to see progression is required to take on a sub ranking, to learn new skills in order to help himself, his comrades, and his people. Though their main rank is what is important, and this is just a duty that a rank may have. Muhandis The Muhandis specializes in the use of military siege weaponry, such as battering rams, catapults, trebuchets, ballistae, and defenses such as trenches, walls and so forth. They are very important and almost always needed. This is the most common Sub-Rank, and almost always assigned. Jarraah The Jarraah is the lifeline of the military. They make sure the injured and wounded do not die with the use of advanced medical knowledge and are vital to the military Mwahtemed The Mwahtemed is a title given to those who show the capability of doing such jobs as making sure the other soldiers are equipped enough to do their tasks. Specializing in the organization of arms, ranging from weaponry to armor, the task of the Mwahtemed is to assure that their fellow soldiers are equipped. This sub-rank is given to those who are officers, or high ranking within the Al-Saqr Allah Heroes and Notable Soldiers of Old Ibraheem Aladeen Ibraheem Aladeen was born as a slave to the House of Kharadeen during the Sultanate of Haria. With the Fall of Haria to Santegia, Ibraheem followed Auda Kharadeen throughout his life. Ibraheem Aladeen helped his Kharadeen friend form the Kadarsi Tribe, a home for all those who were mistreated by the De Savin reign. Ibraheem was tasked with the defense of the people and began forming a makeshift guard with the few young people in the camp. He found great success and military knowledge with the Camps time in Haense. Later when Auda Kharadeen was made Sultan, Ibraheem Aladeen took on bigger roles, dealing with many political positions and even some seeing him as the true leader of the Farfolk people. Ibraheem Aladeen held three different positions under Abdullah Kharadeen, starting as Janissary Captain, then to Amir, and Lastly Grand Wazir. Ibraheem Aladeen also helped Finalize the Qali Bomba, which was used to greatly weaken the September Prince, which made it much easier for the Dominion of Malinor to finish him off. In his later life he retired in the Grand fort of Al-Osmani and saw very little combat until his death. Menev Eredil Menev Eredil joined the Kadarsi Tribe as a skeptic outsider. An atheistic Audinian who learned most of his combat knowledge from the military in Belvitz. He however loyally joined the Farfolk people as a Guard and defended it with his life. Menev Eredil saw some acknowledgement under Auda Kharadeens Reign serving in the memorable moment having been fighting in the Ghanyan War at this time within the Janissary Corp after being granted the title of Janissary from Auda himself. However the Crown Prince, Abdullah Kharadeen saw great potential in Menev. He worked very closely with him and became good friends. They went off on missions together and made a name for being risk takers. Menev would end up becoming Abdullah's Personal guard, being one of the most proficient fighters in the realm. Menev would become Amir under Abdullah, Menev led many successful campaigns in the Name of the Sultan and was shown great rewards for it. Menev disappeared with Caliph Abdullah and reappeared with the crowning of Caliph Murad Kharadeen. Menev at his old age still showed his youthful fire in his eyes. He took the position of Grand Wazir and worked heavily in the Caliphate to bring her back to a glorious state at her failing status. He died peacefully in the Capital of Cresonia before its disbandment. Amias Carter Amias Carter was one of the first to join the Al-Mahdi and his unification of the farfolks. At first a wandering traveler found a greater purpose: Fighting in the Farfolk oppression and fighting for the Al-Mahdi of the faith, The southeron made great deeds on the field of battle and on the field of science, becoming a good friend to the Caliph. Amias was brought into the Janissary corps for his undying loyalty and great skill, which proved useful when the Ghanyans invaded the Kadarsi Sultanate, managing to kill three generals of the Ghanyans himself, and partook in the Battle of M’Baku. Fighting in every war with the Al-Mahdi, the man was granted the title of Grand Safeer going around the realm as the Caliphate’s Head of diplomacy until his retirement, residing in a Shawarma shop, until his death surrounded by loved ones near the end of Atlas. Medals and Honors Medal of Qali Bomba The Qali Bomba was invented by Caliph Abdullah Kharadeen and his closest engineers, together they were able to design a powerful weapon that very few understood what it was. Those who are granted the Medal of Qali Bomba have shown great creativity and engineering. Medal of Faiz Faiz Kharadeen, the first Caliph of Khalestine is considered one of the greatest farfolks fighters of his time. Those given this medal show to be an excellent fighter and can fight battles most others cannot. Medal of M’Baku The Ghanyan Invasion saw hostilities of the Ghanyan people towards the Sultanate of Kadarsi, Al-Mahdi Auda Kharadeen was able to defend his people and defeat the Ghanyan people all the way back to their capital and conquer it. Those who are granted this Medal have risked their life to defend the Emirate. Medal of Akangi A great darkness had threatened the Sultanate of Old, it threatened the whole desert and claimed much land. The great Mubarizan put all they had into it and saw very little success. However, against all odds, they won the final battle and saw the end of the treacherous evil. This Medal is given to those who against all odds, win a battle for the Emirate. Oath: My duty as a warrior of The Falcons of Allah now begins. I am the shield of Allah, Protecting His Word, His Land, His People. I am the sword of Allah, Striking down His enemies. I am the guardian of His Word, Spreading His Will and His Light. My bond is eternal. My duty as a comrade of The Falcons of Allah now begins. I am my brother’s shield, I shall defend him when he cannot himself. I am my brother’s sword, I shall strike for him when he cannot himself. I am the guardian of his honor, For we stand as one. I will fight alongside my brother. I will die alongside my brother. My bond is eternal.

((Very nice, I love you mentioned Rashidun

Zubayr noded as he listened to the news. "It is good to see them return once more, may Allah protect them."

Captain Zubayr of the 33rd Farfolk Volunteer rode silently in the sands with his men, A few tears fell down his cheeks as he not dare show his men, In truth, the conflict between family hurt him so, deep down. He knows true, he knows truth, and He knowns Duty, he must resolve the issue between his old friends and allies, but now between his comrades. Soon, He shall try to speak with the king of Balian, perhaps this can be resolved quickly. Though as for the song, No order was made to silence it, as he to, also remembered when the ferrymen sent wheat and Lentils, that fed him as a poor boy. had it not been for them, he would have died of starvation. "Oh Allah, what struggles of Jihad have you brought before us, Where brother, must fight brother, upon the fields that saved them when they were but childern. Bring us strength, to do what is right, and to remain firm in our duties.."

Zubayr would be polishing a good old Saqr Al-Nahash as he listened in, joining in on the Chorus with his men!

The Volunteer Farfolk Regiment [The Proud Regimental Flag of the New Regiment] With Balian going to war, many of the Qalasheen across the desert and from the Sheikhdom watched and readied themselves. Balian, A friend and Allie to them had been violated in their treaty, many before rose to their call for aid in the Jihad against the undead, though recently with the enemy breaking their word, something sacred to the Qalasheen, many began to heed the call to arms. A Volunteer Farfolk Regiment had been formed under the Auxiliaries of Balian, they mustered and quickly, often bringing their own gear and horses, both brave and scared, young and old, Men and Women. They can be seen in Balian carrying their proud Regimental colors, and beginning to drill to prepare themselves for the future bloody campaign into the north, riding around, Firing Saqr Al-Nahash crossbows, and marching quickly in and out of formation and when not drilling, proud Qalasheen music thunders and Dabke and banner waving, indeed a Qalasheen Warparty had arrive. This Regiment though Balian was a Cannonist Nation, was made of Mumineen, Mujahideen, Future Shaheeds, All Swearing a simple oath “For the Sake of Allah, Martyrdom or Victory, Through our Blood, Through Jihad! From the Dunes and Far away!” The Farfolk have rallied, to liberate, to glory, and to death, only fate will know of their future. Rankings in order are noted: Captain The Captain is in charge of giving orders to the Regiment and heads the regiment as its leader. He is responsible for leading it into battle and to ensure its orders are fulfilled to the letter or die trying in the process. Sergeant The Sergeant is in charge of carrying out the orders of the Captain, keeping the men in order, drilling the men, and battle ready, in short a second in command to ensure the unit keeps moving, and hits hard and strong. Flag Bearer The Flag Bearer is one of the most important figures and most dangerous, they carry the Regimental Colors into battle, and keep it high, this helps the regiment know where they are to rally and to fight in the case of a thick heated battle, they keep the morale high, and proud! Ranker The Ranker is the Backbone of the regiment, they hold fast, they are brave volunteers who came to fight to fight and defend their allies in the hour of war. Skilled and drilled, these men are ready for the heat of battle! Recruit. Fresh off the camel, these men are boys to be made into soldiers, and will soon be ready to honor their regiment, their race, and peoples in the foreign wars of Balian. Riders rider all over the dunes, meeting all with the simple saying, a calling card of sorts. “FROM THE DUNES AND FAR AWAY!” The 33rd Farfolk Regiment is Formed!
