"ONLY ALLAH MAY LAY JUDGEMENT UPON OTHERS" The ancient Imam mutters to himsel. He of course the true representative of Allah should be the one to cast judgement.

Ey Guys! I need a bit of help with a history project in hgihschool concerning ancient rome. I was just curious if any of you actually know of a Roman who wrote about moneys influence in roman politics, attempts to regulate it or anything similar? I figured there is plenty of people interested in roman history to actually have a chance of someone knowing since i my self cannot find anything but modern historians talking about it without actually refering to any texts by any actual Romans. 

Thanks in advance c:

"I have interpreted the will of god" the Church of Canon says, but truly one cannot interpret His will. The will of Allah is eternal as is He, therefore His simple teachings may not be interpreted by us mere mortals nor do they need interpreting. Oh, but that is where the whole Church of Canon and its first prophets are lead astray. They interpreted Allah words differently rather than understand his direct meaning, for His words need no interpreting for it is His true word.

They spoke of but Allah and their interpretation of Him and not of the true ways He tells us. There has only been one guide of the faiths that properly gave us the direct words of Allah so we may understand without the needing of interpretation. We follow the iman al-rashidun directly of Allah and we shall not stray from those ways. We do not need to interpret the words of Allah, for stand a child who can read beside a man who can read and have them read the Holy Book in private and have them speak on what a verse means. They will both speak of what it means in equal, there will be no difference for His word is absolute. Another example being that Allah told us not to drink the liquid of the shai'tan, his words clear as day. . . Yet, the first prophets decided to convey his message differently to say they are allowed the fermented grape so they may indulge in sin. They but interpreted His will as they see beneficial to themselves.

They speak of the Seven Skies as well, they say Paradise is only open to Human kind alone. May Allah have mercy upon the ignorant! For Allah showed His eternal mercy to us as he opened his skies for all of his devout servants! And indeed this be the devout servants among all his creations He opened them for as He commanded that no true submissive being underneath His Light shall condemn another.

Therefore, no man nor woman of ‘Canon’ shall enter His blessed eternal Skies as the Church but only preach what they wish for themselves and not of His will.  The church but preach the hate of all the creations of Allah and not His will. The Canonists but pray to sate their appetite of greed, lust, and worldly pleasures rather than their submission to Allah. That is where we lay different. Let them consider us heretics or heathens for following in the absolute word of GOD. Let them pray for riches and pleasures while we pray for forgiveness and a place amongst the Seven Skies. They will consider us brutes or monsters, but soon they will see they are the true monsters of this realm. May Allah show mercy and forgiveness to those that follow Canon the true way and not the current false.”

 The Imam closes his holy book and rolls the scroll the Church recently put out, tucking it aside as he then points above himself, shouting aloud proudly "Subhannallah.” to the congregation before him 

Subhanallah! he thinks as he signs the charter

Unlike many there is no sign of sadness or grief on the face of Imam Faiz Iben Quhaffah as he boards the ships. He unlike many had seen the doom of the city coming as the infidels of always shall look on the chosen people of Allah with hatred and envy. The grande scheme of the Orens to topple our city but these worshippers of the shai'tan cannot topple our faith in him whom is eternal. Allah guides us and he let the destruction of our city happen as to lead us to his promised land. Him whom be our shepard and our lord wills it and he is great. "Subhanallah." The imam shouts to the sky as he leads the prayer on the deck of the Ceto.

You didn't have a, 'All the candidates are stupid, I would've chosen Rand if he didn't drop out' or a 'None' option for the best candidate for finance, so I can't fill out your survey. I apologize...

I've added the "none" but since he had like 1% in the polls before dropping out I'll refrain from adding him ;p 

And well - This should focus on campaign finance system and not economic policy. c:

Thanks for the answer! And well i forgot to add that people can throw constructive critism in the comments if something bothers them for next time i do a survey x3

(I think I'll respectfully disagree with the carson thing... But well i live in scandinavia - Sanders is a far right-politician over here lol)

Ello! I am currently doing a schoolproject where i have to come up with something to proof that i can work with the methods of Social Science. For that i came up with a form (which I'm going to compare to a form made by NYT - and thereafter rek it because It's wrong... By rekking my own form proving that i can work with qualititative methods (that's the theory at least)). 

The subject is on the american campaign finance system and i therefore need Americans to answer this... https://docs.google.com/forms/d/16ih_O5SDGdqaAiKQmvUnjaE9OPq3UN6Q0dYT0WhJ_84/viewform#responses

All of the answers are of course anonymous and all that **** - thanks to all that respond c:

And to all of you who don't want to answer i only have one thing to say:

Economic Left/Right: -9.75 
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -8.77

Jeez... I've moved to the right - hit -10, -10 last time.. sad ;c

The imam Faiz Ibn Qhuhafah spits on the poster hanging on the townsquare as he grumbles into his great beard:

       "Oh even our great sultan must now see how our great caliphate is getting ripped off by these infidels..."

((Thanks Obama ;c

Praise Allah and the wisdom in our Sultans decisions! 

Posters around town with the sultans seal have been put up around town telling of a great event that will happen in the coming months reading:

"Recent events have lead to a great divide in our great country. There have been burnings of pig and liqour both on the town square and at the brigde. This have lead to some disturbed citizens wondering if maybe religious zealotism is going to take over in our great country. Some citizens have been taunting the burnings of the pigs meaning that this is a waste of food and a waste of liqour. Some citizens have expressed  joy for this project claiming it is the true mission of allah.

Some people have looked at the great amount of new people in the city. Some have rejoiced in diversity. Some have looked dismayed.

In our great government our sultana has in his grace by Allah decided that there shall be an end to such foolish selfdestruction and we insted should try building on each others strenghts with the decree:

"On the next saint day we shall by the eleventh hour meet in the masjid. Not for prayer but for talk. Talk of worries great and small that may bother us and may pull us further apart instead of closer together. Leading the talk shall be our court Imam Faiz Ibn Qhuhafah whom even though he recently arrived at the city already have had a large impact. 

Our talks will be open for everyone. Human as Uruk as elf as dwarf shall all be welcome the only requirement beign that they live in Khalestine or have a trade that involves the country.

For a safer city where we all can live in peace and safety with each other - Sultan Arlen "

(I am the courtimam yes but the sultan was too busy therefore i post it)

The eleventh hour is 11 pm (23) gmt +1 tomorrow with the timetable as following (the green line) is when we convoke (as in tuesday (tonight for some of us) then find your timezone on the table compared with mine which is gmt +1)

For the great Allah the mercifull and our great Khalestine. The country chosen by Allah shall stand again. Reminds the Imam as he too reminds the people that fighting for our great state thereby is sacred duty to Allah and that there is no man not willing to give his life for Allah whom calls himself a believer of the Iman al-rashidun. At least if there be so they are not true believers of our faith as it requires us to perform both our great and small jihads.

The fifth prophet does not have to be part of the church of the canon. He can simply have been messaged by God or be part of a long oral tradition that tweeked or viewed the scrolls of the other prophets a different way. Canonism and the religion of the qalasheen (I don't remenber the name nor can I be bothered to look it up) have similar roots. The same way Islam says that Jesus is a prophet and has a reverence for him ( I am aware they differ on a few points specially on the matter of Jesus being the son of God). Thus sharing prophets with another creatorist religion should not be dismissed.

I bow to your divine reasoning but must admit that i would wish for greater clarification of this on places like the wikis and the likes and i still believe that a distinction between the prophets would be proper considering the differences. But well I'll take this down again in a few minutes then - just relaised i can't? help? xD

Yes. But Allah simply means God, cultural tweeks here and there, plus a fifth prophet, bam you have a new religion.

I would say true to this if it was not because that would require the fifth prophet to 1) Either be a follower of the church of canon or have a certain knowlegde of the church of canon. 2) this mostly prompts the acceptance of the other religions prophets as parts of your own eg. Muhammed said that Moses and jesus was both prophets of god (allah) but that they misunderstood the message and Muhammed/the coran gets it right. 

yes these 2 could both indeed have been true where the second is in the fact that the Iman al-Rashidun leaves room for other religions and the first is likely but most comepelling is the fact that it would make no sense for people of the Iman al-Rashidun to call him the "fifth prophet" instead of just "the prophet" when this is an independant religion - seeing as there is nowhere it states that the 2. is true. (in the scroll of the fifth prophet the church of canon and prophets are not mentioned)

The prophets can still be shared as the faith of the qali is still a creatorist religion.

Still the word of "allah" by the fifth prophet leads me to believe that there must have been someone to spread the faith of Allah? I mean it could be that he where refferring to canonism but that would not make a lot of sense for the future "Iman al-Rashidun" and how pork and alcohol suddently where outlawed

(( I believe the first four prophets refer to those found in Canonism, though I am not entirely sure of this. ))

I found this too but it would be weird for us to call then prophets if they are from canonism? There is no explanation so therefore i assumed that it refers to earlier prophets. Especially since the 5th prophet already know of Allah as the true god (https://www.lordofthecraft.net/forums/topic/142273-the-scroll-of-the-fifth-prophet/) which must have meant that there have been a previous prophet to tell of Allah

 according to this

I misunderstood loreparts and have taken this down

It semt most relevant to this post and i was wondering if there was any names for the prophets yet? I know from the wiki that there are at least 5 but nothing else which is quite anoying when writing books about our faith - or my version of it. (normally i would come up with some names but considering the major amounts of lore i thought i would ask here)

Biography  (Please make it a decent two paragraphs long. Remember to add server lore, and events that happened to your character so that they don’t contradict history.):

Born into this world the 6th son of Qhuhafah he had no hopes of ever following in his fathers footsteps but named after the first Caliph he was destined for service of the great one - allah. Sent to the madrassa from an early age to learn and honor the teachings of the iman al-rashidun. Useful knowlegde was obtained and i brought honor to the family but... other usefull knowlegde was learned of course... such as how badly pork actually taste - read in the scriptures of the prophets of course (subhannallah). He was not the worst of the bunch though... One night at the madrassa (Why i was there is of no importance to the story) he heard the mullah and some of the younger students tumbling around in the Mullahs quarters. At that moment he was touched by allah and the prophets. The truth they spoke and the acts of the iblees the mullah performed lead him to being the first among the fellaheen to throw a stone at the now banished mullah. His heroic acts of exposing the iblees in front of them lead him on a quick path to the local masjid. 

Helping the Imam was a good job - to say the least. Even my elder brothers now looked upon me with respect - preaching the word of allah and serving the visions of the fifth prophet is nothing to be taken lightly. Another superb thing about my service was the food - but such vanity does not concern the servants of the iman al-rashidun of course. I might have grown a bit in size but the ambition allah have for me have grown quadroubly that - i feel it in my bones aching to get other places than this small masjid... Al-wakhra and the court of the sultan seems the most tempting but swaying the populace with the gift of words allah gave me in other parts of Vandoria seems a close second. 

His Personality Traits: A zealous hypocrite, powerhungry, ruthless 

Ambitions: Where ever allah sees fit to grant him things he shall not reject them... 

Strengths/Talents: Cool and understands political systems

Weaknesses/Inabilities: He eats just a bit too much and exercises a bit too little - we all know where that goes... Quite onorganized, have a tendensy of hypocrisy
