“Oh my brothers in islam! Oh Mumineen! Hear what I have to say! The muslim world is in dire need of heros like Salahuddin! But he is gone now but he has left us a responsibility he hold dear to his heart! Defending the nation of ISLAM! Right now our brothers are facing the Kuffar on the frontline while we sit here! I call on you my fellow muslims to take up arms and join me! Be the heroes we are in need today! Oh my people! Fighting for the sake of Allah is much better for you! Fight with me oh my brothers!” Sultan adil-hazeem would shout before the mass before hearing chants of ‘Allahu Akbar!’ storms through the citys.
Caravans of supplies are prepared to go and aid the Ayyubid.

“We must gather more men, with the christians deciding to side with the crusaders, and the truce breakers attack our brothers in shams, we must rally our men. Raise the levies! I want to see fifteen to twenty-five thousand men ready to move out.” Sultan Abdul says looking at his commanders, “Yes Sultan we will immediately begin rallying them up.” Commander kariim says dipping his head before marching off. Sultan Abdul would look at Haruf before speaking, “As soon as possible have the men ready to move out to defend the supply lines, we cannot allow the mobs disrupt it.” he says gesturing him away, “Fariz! Tell our brothers that we agree to the method the caliph suggested regarding the armies and will begin preparation to aid it policy..” Abdul-hazeem says sighing in exhaustion. “There is so much work that is needed to be done…” Fariz would begin to speak, “My Sultan, Remember that Allah will aid us, for surely indeed he will punish the aggressors in this life or the next.” The Sultan would smile “well spoken Akhi, well spoken!”
