After much deliberation beneath the olive branches of our courtyard, after many late nights of discussion, and after speaking directly with the candidates or through our trusted representatives, the Qalasheen have reached a unified decision. With hearts firm in their purpose and intentions bound by the ties of traditions and duty, we have chosen to cast our collective vote as a single bloc in favor of Daniel von Rhoswald for the esteemed position of Mayor of Alba. This decision was not taken lightly nor made in haste. We weighed the words, character, and promises of each candidate, seeking what would best preserve the dignity, welfare, and future of all residents, not merely our own kin, but the entire fabric of Alba. We place our trust in Daniel von Rhoswald, praying he shall uphold justice, protect the weak, and govern with an even hand. We remind him, and ourselves, that leadership is a trust and a test before Allah and the people alike. We advocate for all our brothers and sisters in the city of Elizabeth to cast their votes in support of this candidate for the interest of preservation, duty, and needs of the people. "The best of people are those who are most beneficial to others." May Allah bless this choice, grant success to every sincere effort, and keep us steadfast upon the path of truth and honor.

My Name is Amin Bin Shamil, I am a part of the Banu Shaheed who currently resides in Alba and a farm in Stirland. We are a small, humble household striving to uphold our honor and preserve the traditions passed down to us by our forefathers. We hold firm to the virtues of hospitality, sincerity, and service to both kin and strangers alike. Our hearts are warm, our table is open to the guests, and our hearts are constantly inclined toward Allah’s remembrance. Yet, in these days of growing needs and ceaseless tasks, we find our hands too few to maintain the household as it deserves, and so we call upon the people who seek work. We have several positions open for house servants for our homes. Duties include maintaining the cleanliness of living quarters, cooking within the family household, preparing meals for family and guests, serving tea and coffee to guests, attending to small errands on the estate, assisting with setting up gatherings and aiding with daily household tasks. Those who serve faithfully may be assigned more trusted roles, such as personal attendants or stewards. They will be treated with fairness and respect for their work and shall receive 15 mina for each Qali week of faithful service, alongside shared meals. Those who find in themselves the spirit of service, who feel the stirring of sincerity in their hearts and a steady strength in their hands, are invited to approach Amin bin Shamil in Alba or to send a written letter bearing their name and intention, should they be inclined to work within our family household. May Allah guide the sincere among his servants, and may he bless every hand that labors in goodness, every tongue that speaks in truth, and every heart that beats with sincerity.

No idea, if there was one i couldnt pick because those two will hunt me down for choosing ;3 Good morning 💚

"Alhumdillah, though this world is a test.... our reward is in the hereafter in the seven skies with Allah Supana wattallah, You did will to tell me Zubayr, We must double our efforts for the sake of Allah." Amin says his face shone brightly as he placed his hand upon Zubayr's shoulder

A member of this server for many years, I don't know how many it has been, look when I first applied, idk... However, it has indeed been a long time since I had roamed with you all, perhaps three or so years? , and since the servers are down and I'm bored... I have decided unwisely to open an AMA to you, the masses. So, beware and ask me anything. Your fanatic, Adamc2000

"Hmm this looks intriguing...." A Qalisheen would mutter before setting it aside and continue writing

Troubled fields Amin awoke to the soft light of morning filtering through the modest windows of his newly purchased home in Stirland. Every coin he had saved in Alba, every trade and bargain struck, had gone into this home, a roof over his head, however humble. Yet his purse was nearly empty, and business in Alba had slowed like the old oxen in the fields. His belly was light, his sleep heavier than it should’ve been. He rose without complaint. Stepping outside, he was greeted by green pastures kissed with dew, but also by the quiet ruins of his little farm, crops trampled, feathers scattered, the faint prints of some unknown creature etched into the soft dirt from the night before. He said nothing. He merely rolled up his sleeves. His hands, rough from labor and leather, moved slowly as he cleared the broken fencing, gathered what remained of the grain sacks, and brushed the soil where seeds once lay hopeful. Still, he uttered no curse, no complaint. Only a whispered “Innā lillāhi wa innā ilayhi rājiʿūn” passed his lips. This strange creature plagued not only his home but his neighbors, and soon it became the talk of many who reside in Stirland, many trying to ward it off to no avail, Amin learnt this the hard way as he checks the last part of his small farm plucking a few premature carrots, fearing another creature assault would cost him another month's of hard labor to ruin. He walked to the nearby stream, cupped its cold water, and performed his wudu with calm precision. The dirt of the world was washed away, if not from his life, then at least from his limbs as water ran down his arms, cleansing them of any remaining dirt. He returned to his home, to the edge of the field, standing beside an old oak tree that stretched out providing shade to weary travelers from the sun's heat. The wind was gentle, and the land was green, blessed with rain. Yet he knew that there was no one who could help his troubles.. exempt one... his parents always told him that in times of trouble, an earnest prayer will always be answered... So he knelt beneath the shade of an oak tree, and the breeze carried the scent of fresh grass and earthy dirt. His hands tremble as he raises them to the heavens, palms open, heart heavy yet hopeful. His voice is low, sincere, the words flowing for his Lord alone. ------------------------------ “Yā Allah, Al-Razzāq, O Provider, O Sustainer of all of your creations, O He who sends rain to the thirsty earth and grain to the beak of every bird, I come before you, ya Rabb, not as one deserving, but as one in need. I am your poor servant who walks humbly in the path of Imam Rashidun, your slave whom never went astray and followed your commandments since the times of your prophets, who taught us that sincerity in the heart weighs more than gold, and that one bite of blessed food is greater than a feast of pride. Oh my lord, you are the most powerful and indeed the most merciful, none is worthy of you, and none compares to your will, for you do not need us, but we cannot survive without you! You see me, O Allah, in this green land, where the grass grows thick and the trees bear fruit. Yet still, my stomach is hollow, and my flock is barren. I ask not for wealth nor title, but for that which brings sustenance and mercy... A flock of chickens, O Allah. Not from the skies in fire and glory, no... just a small flock, fit for a servant. One that clucks in peace, that lays eggs I may eat or share with travelers and orphans. One that reminds me of Your mercy, in every feather, in every quiet peck at the earth. If it is written in your qadr, let a hen wander into my field, perhaps lost, perhaps sent. If not for me, then for the sake of the guests I feed, the children I teach, the neighbors I greet with dates and duʿā. Let it be from you, and I shall call it Rizqah, and I will never waste a single blessing it gives. O Allah, You test the patient, and You elevate the grateful. Let me be among them both. Send your mercy upon me and let me not be misguided or led astray!" ------------------------------------- He places his hands against his cheeks before lowering them slowly, pressing them to his chest. His gaze turns skyward once more, hoping that Allah will answer his prayers And then... it happened. A soft rustle. A flutter of feathers. A cluck unlike any other. Two chickens wandered from the trees, their feathers clean and untouched by mud. They stepped forward cautiously... and laid an egg, A warm, glowing shell resting in the grass. And before Amin could even rise, the egg cracked open. A chick, small, golden, and chirping, hatched beneath the green skies of Stirland. Amin collapsed forward in sujud, his forehead pressed to the earth, his voice broken with tearful gratitude. “Subḥānak yā Rabb... my Lord... You have answered me.” He may be far from home of his bearing in foreign lands and empire strange in culture and faith to him, but Allah was with him this he knew...

How you been? What was one of the fondest memories you made on lotc that stuck with you to this day?

EVEN MORE HONORABLE! dont forget to send 3 people a msg on how much you apreciate them and why!

DO YOUR CHALLENGE!

Eid Mubarak, LOTC. Hey everyone! I just wanted to take a moment today, both as a player and a person, to say Eid Mubarak to those celebrating. For those unfamiliar with it, I wanted to share a little about what this day means and why it’s so special to millions of people around the world, including myself. Today is Eid al-Adha, the “Festival of Sacrifice.” It’s one of the two major holidays in Islam, the other being Eid al-Fitr, which comes after Ramadan. Now I know I know you are all are probably asking “HOLY CRAP! Adam is back?!” yeah yeah…. I don't know how myself, but y'all somehow dragged me back into LOTC… I had touched grass and enjoyed it, but now it seems I'm going back with you all in a hermit lifestyle and never talk to anyone outside again, like covid lockdowns….. ANYWAYS! Let's get back to why we are all here! Eid Al-Adha commemorates the story of Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham), peace be upon him, who was asked by God to sacrifice his beloved son as a test of obedience. It’s a story many people from different traditions might recognize. So today, in memory of that moment, Muslims around the world perform the Qurbani, the sacrifice of a sheep, goat, cow, or camel, and divide the meat into three parts, one for the family, one for friends and neighbors, and one for those in need. It's not about the act alone, but the values behind it: generosity, humility, devotion, and care for others. It’s also the day that marks the culmination of the Hajj pilgrimage, one of the greatest acts of worship in Islam. Right now, millions of people in Makkah are gathered together in unity, equality, and peace, wearing simple white garments with no distinction of class or race, standing side by side as one humanity before their Creator. I know LOTC is a diverse place. We come from different cultures, backgrounds, and beliefs, and that’s something I truly appreciate. So, I don’t share this to preach or push, but rather to open a little window into something sacred to me, and maybe help someone out there understand a neighbor or a friend just a bit better. To my fellow brothers and sisters in Islam, may Allah accept your sacrifice, your prayers, your patience, and your striving. May this day be one of peace, forgiveness, and spiritual renewal. Hug your family if you can. Reach out to the ones you miss. Eat good food and be present in the moment. To everyone else! Thanks for reading. Thanks for being a part of a community where people can share parts of who they are, even if it’s through pixels and roleplay. I wish you all joy today, whether or not it’s a holiday in your home, and I hope you’re surrounded by light, love, and good company. Eid Mubarak from the heart. Wishing peace and blessings to all of you. Sincerely, your brother and companion of LOTC, Adamc2000 or Adamc2kbro Heh, you think you can get away!? NAWW Y'all challenge is this! You must all send 3 people a message on how much you appreciate them and why! And if you want a challenge hehehehehe… YOU MUST ALL! Grab one sheep on LOTC…. And sacrifice it and give its meat to other players, doesn't matter what irp faith or reason, just be hospitable, there are starving players with no food than you think! (feed me, I beg you, I don't get paid….)

Powerful stuff keep it up

Debb shook his head in disbelief as his brothers informed him of what had transpired "By Allah who has created the heavens and the earth, what has befallen such a city to lose its way? Angry they can be but don't go losing yourself in it, Allah is best disposal of affairs...." Debb would sigh deeply as he continues his way through the streets covered in eggs shells "This is going to stink for a long time if we don't clean this up any faster..."

The Rising Smoke in Hyspia As the sun began to set over the vibrant city of Hyspia, the air was filled with the tantalizing aroma of fruity tobacco and the gentle haze of smoke. The source of this delightful scent was a new stall that had sprung up in the bustling market square, adorned with colorful fabrics and shimmering lights. The sign above the stall read "Ansari Trade Post," beckoning all who passed by to come and explore its offerings. As the curious and the adventurous approached, they were greeted by a sight that both intrigued and delighted. Jars of rare herbs and strange white quartz like color lined the shelves alongside bundles of fragrant incense and ornate hookah. The stall boasted an impressive array of substances, each carefully labeled with its name and properties. There were Pure Quarts and Cactus Green for relaxation, Eternal leaf for pain relief, and a variety of other herbs and concoctions for a myriad of ailments. The air was thick with the sweet scent of tobacco and the sound of bubbling hookahs, creating an atmosphere of relaxation and intrigue. Despite the exotic nature of the goods on offer, there was an air of legitimacy about the stall. It seems that each herb and product had been carefully selected and prepared and according to passers-by, seemed to be of the highest quality. There it seem to be a same message you hear all around!: “If one wishes to buy in large bulk, be it for one's own use, a party, or ball, be they a peasant from the slums or a king in a high palace, contact us to place an order, we sell, cheaper then cloud temple! Come one or all!” [NOTE: PRICE MAY VARY FROM TIME TO TIME] [!] Your Beloved Drug Lord Has Returned.....

WHERE IS MY COOKING PLUGIN FOR GOD SAKE! AND PLEASE FIX THE HOOKAH PLUGIN! +1

"this seems fun! i wonder if others outside their kingdom can participate in the joust and melee!" Debb Inquires

To Our BELOVED LOTCERS, Happy Last Ten Nights! As you all know, we are in the blessed month of Ramadan, a time when the Muslim community of LOTC has stepped aside from the distractions of daily life to focus on their faith and connection with Allah. It is a time of fasting, prayer, reflection, and increased acts of worship. As we enter the last ten nights of Ramadan, we are presented with a golden opportunity to seek the Night of Decree, Laylat al-Qadr! Now you mineman goober who like many has either too busy of a life to research what it is or your entire life is on that mineman server as rp and cringe yourway to political power, xoxo SO FEAR NOT! I shall tell you! Laylat al-Qadr is a night that is better than a thousand months. It is a time of immense blessings, forgiveness, and mercy from Allah. These nights are a chance for us to increase our worship, seek forgiveness for our sins, and draw closer to our Creator. It begins from sunset until sunrise, for us muslims from Mughrib to Fajr. The Night of Decree, as described in the Quran, is a night of peace and tranquility, during which angels descend to earth. The rewards for worship on this night are multiplied manifold, and it is a time when our prayers are more likely to be answered. It is a night that holds great significance in the life of a believer, and one that should be sought with sincerity and devotion. During these last ten nights, we strive to increase our acts of worship, such as praying extra prayers such as Qiyam al-Layl or Tahajjud, reciting the Quran, making sincere supplications/ Duas, and engaging in remembrance of Allah like Zikr. We should also strive to seek forgiveness for our sins and ask Allah for His mercy and blessings. It is important to remember that the Night of Decree could fall on any one of the odd-numbered nights of the last ten nights of Ramadan. Therefore, it is recommended to increase our worship and devotion during all of these nights, so that we may not miss out on this blessed opportunity. Now those aren't muslims you may also be asking, “well Adam what does this have to do with me?” Well, I'll tell you! Many believe this night is not exclusive to only muslims! We believe that any prayers that were not answered by Allah will give you something far much worth to you then you may perceive it! For example! You may ask to be rich in life, and while you may not actually become rich with money you could become rich in knowledge, family things that have far greater worth, or blessed with a great opportunity for both! As we strive to make the most of these last ten nights, let us also remember the less fortunate and those in need around the world. Ramadan is a time of generosity and giving, and we should strive to help those in need to the best of our ability. By doing so, we not only fulfill our duty of charity/zakat but also spread kindness and compassion in the world. So please keep in your prayers for the less fortunate and places who struggle in times of hardship such as places inflicted with famine, war, poverty, and diseases. Best way to help them is to ask Allah/GOD the most powerful and indeed the most merciful and generous for he is the best of helpers. Soon after the last ten nights of Ramadan, we will be celebrating Eid, a joyous occasion that marks the end of Ramadan. It is a time of celebration, gratitude, and unity for the Muslim community. In the coming weeks, you will see an Eid post so stay tuned you goobers!. In conclusion, let us make the most of these last ten nights of Ramadan, seeking the Night of Decree with sincerity and devotion. May Allah accept our worship, forgive our sins, and shower His blessings and mercy upon us all. Heh you thought you could get away did ya? NAW AW! RAMADAN LAST TEN DAYS CHALLENGE! Your challenger today ladies and gentlemen! Drumroll pleaaase…. You whether irl or in game compliment a homie, smile or emote smiling and brighten someone day up! Lot of people think that someone can get a lot of compliments but let me tell you something! No we don't ;-; So go out there! Make someone's day! And for EXTRA EXTRA BROWNIE POINTS! Donate to charity, donate to something you believe to be in a good cause. To donate in charity is as we say “giving a loan to GOD, and he will multiply it for you tens, hundreds or thousands folds!” remember that even giving a smile or helping someone is an act of charity! Ehem, love you all and stay true to yourselves and be one that helps humanity one step at a time! Ramadan Mubarak everyone!

Debb entered the city as the cake just finely frosted laid upon the platter as he set it upon his farmer stall, only for worsen news to come out from the clinic. His head fell into his hand as many began to leave his life both close and distant. “I am glad she had enjoyed the cakes while she was here, but now she had left this fair city to soon. May Allah grant her paradise of the seven skies, and May Allah ease the grief of Demitrey…” (ooc note: MY PC BROKEN ONCE JUST ******* ONCE AND EVERYONE DIEING OR SOMETHING!

One of the other Rashidun Jihadist looks rather confused about what incursions in the samurai lands as they never even went past the desert yet but agrees with his friend! Looks forward to seeing samurai conquest and to pray for their victory against dark magic! +1!

The Shepherd Call Answered Since the tragic massacre that had shaken his world, Debb had experienced the profound grace of Allah. Fourfold had Allah replenished what was lost, a testament to the strength of his faith and the unwavering nature of divine providence. Tonight, as he gently supported the struggling ewe, he felt the weight of that blessing, a reminder of Allah's mercy and generosity. As the lamb finally brought forth new life, its weak cries echoing in the stillness, Debb felt a surge of gratitude towards Allah. He cradled the newborn lamb in his arms, feeling the softness of its wool against his roughened hands. In that moment, he knew that this lamb was a symbol of renewal and hope, a sign that even in the darkest of times, Allah's light would shine through. With a heart full of gratitude and a mind filled with awe, Debb decided to name the lamb "Barakah," meaning blessing. It was a fitting name, a reminder of the countless blessings that Allah had bestowed upon him, both big and small. As he watched over the mother and her newborn, he knew that this moment would stay with him forever, a testament to the power of faith and the beauty of Allah's creations. Inspired by the beauty of the moment, Debb felt compelled to put his feelings into words. Sitting by the flickering light of a lantern, he took out a piece of parchment and began to write. His words flowed freely, a testament to his faith and his gratitude for Allah's blessings. He wrote of faith and resilience, of hope and renewal, of the eternal love of Allah that guided him through even the darkest of nights. As the first light of dawn began to break on the horizon, Debb finished his poem, a heartfelt tribute to the believers, a testament to the strength of their faith and the beauty of their devotion. He knew that no matter what trials lay ahead, he would face them with unwavering faith, knowing that Allah was always by his side, guiding him and blessing him with His infinite grace. “In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate, From the heavens above to the depths below, In every creation, Allah's glory does show. In every drop of water, in every blade of grass, In every grain of sand, Allah's mercy does surpass. The stars in the sky, the moon's gentle glow, The sun's radiant light makes the flowers grow. Each creature, each plant, each mountain tall, Allah's handiwork, in them we see His call. From the rivers that flow to the oceans wide, In every ebb and flow, in every changing tide. In the wind that whispers through the trees, In the birds that soar on the gentle breeze. In the mountains that stand, majestic and tall, In the valleys below, where rivers do sprawl. In the deserts vast, where sands do shift, In the snowflakes that fall, each one is a gift. In every living thing, in every breath we take, In every step we make, in every choice we partake. In every joy, in every pain we endure, In every trial, in every success we secure. Allah's mercy knows no bounds, In every creation, His love resounds. So let us be grateful, let us be kind, For in Allah's mercy, true peace we find.”
