Spread of Extreme Practices in [spread_of_extreme_practices_province.GetAreaName]

Please help with verifying or updating this infobox. It was last verified for version 1.32. |
The late Middle Ages saw the emergence of several new forms of Islamic mysticism, one of the most controversial being a brand of Sufi dervishes known as the 'renunciationists'. These men sought to separate themselves entirely from normal society, shaving all body hair down to their eyebrows and publicly breaking the rules of the Sharia in order to demonstrate their unique relationship with God, all while wandering from town to town begging for alms. Our religious scholars are calling for their persecution, arguing that the uneducated populace's tendency to view them with awe will lead them away from the true faith.

Returning Scholars

Particularly in the aftermath of the Mongol conquests of the thirteenth century, Egypt and Syria emerged as the foremost centers of scholarly learning in the Muslim world. Sunni scholars of every persuasion flocked to Damascus and Cairo to learn from the most renowned teachers of science, theology, and above all law, while Shi'ites traveled to Jabal Amil in Lebanon to meet with the scholars of orthodox Twelver Shi'ism. Many students from our lands, having completed their educational pilgrimage, are now returning home and hoping to implement legalistic Islam in our [Root.GovernmentName] just as they learned it in the heartlands of Islam.

Please help with verifying or updating this infobox. It was last verified for version 1.32. |
Just as many members of the Ulema have developed Sufi leanings, many of our Sufi orders have likewise come to extol the virtue of a pious life lived in accordance with the Sharia. Despite disapproving voices on both extremes, we have managed to strike a balance between mysticism and legalism. Our realm is currently enjoying the fruits of moderation and tolerance of differing religious practices.

Debate over the Philosophy of Ibn Arabi
![]() |
Please help with verifying or updating this infobox. It was last verified for version 1.32. |
Ibn Arabi was an Andalusian scholar and mystic, regarded by many Sufis as the foremost spiritual master. His pantheistic philosophy of the 'unity of being' viewed all of creation as a manifestation of God, and invited worshippers to see divine beauty in all aspects of life, not merely in the traditional rituals of Islam. Ever since, debates have raged on over the compatibility of his philosophy with scholarly interpretations of Islam, with some going so far as to label him an unbeliever. For many Sufis, on the other hand, Ibn Arabi's philosophy became the foundational principle of their religious practice. Now we too are being asked to take sides.

Dhimmi Building Restrictions
![]() |
Please help with verifying or updating this infobox. It was last verified for version 1.32. |
Under Islamic Law, non-Muslims faced a number of restrictions on the construction of new buildings in urban centers: their houses were not to be taller than those of the Muslims, and they were not permitted to construct new centers of worship, only to maintain those which already existed. In practice, these rules often went unenforced, but as our realm shifts further toward a legalistic interpretation of Islam, key members of the Ulema are beginning to call for their stricter implementation.

Despite being officially prohibited from constructing houses of worship and tall buildings, the dhimmis in several provinces of our realm are openly disobeying the laws, and many of our qadis are too lax to respond, either because they see no harm in it or because of the hefty bribes they can earn for turning a blind eye.

Enjoining Right and Forbidding Wrong

Please help with verifying or updating this infobox. It was last verified for version 1.32. |
Muslims are encouraged in the Qur'an to take an active role in their community in order to “enjoin right and forbid wrong.” While this command has been interpreted in many ways by Muslim scholars, it was sometimes used by reformist groups to justify the forceful spread of more extreme views. A group of charismatic mosque preachers in [Root.Capital.GetCapitalName] have begun calling for the end of unorthodox religious practices and are inciting the populace against the Sufis, leading to violence and street battles.

Debate over Sufi Practices
![]() |
Please help with verifying or updating this infobox. It was last verified for version 1.32. |
Muslim scholars were not united on the question of the permissibility of Sufism. While most appreciated the heightened levels of religious devotion it inspired among the general population, some disapproved of how certain Sufis expressed their faith. Poetry and song about wine and illicit love, as well as communal dancing and veneration for the tombs of those regarded as saints, could at times provoke opposition from more hardline elements of the Ulema.

Purification of Tax Laws
![]() |
Please help with verifying or updating this infobox. It was last verified for version 1.32. |
Ensuring that the realm's laws operate in accordance with the sacred Sharia requires us to occasionally re-examine our tax-collection practices, and to strive to align them as closely as possible with the legal positions held by the great lawmakers of our [Root.GetReligiousSchool] school. This means eliminating the customary taxes which have accumulated over the years, and taking only what is permitted by the Sharia.

Many among the Ulema would question the great influence that storytellers have over the life of common men. The traditional hero stories of our people are centuries old but they risk making a cult out of seriously distorted fates of historical figures. A prominent cleric in [storytellerprovince.GetAreaName] have taken a strong stand against the storytellers of the realm, and cautions that religious scholars of the past have warned that obsessive listening to stories could lead to false worship.

Please help with verifying or updating this infobox. It was last verified for version 1.32. |
Guilds and fraternities are a constant factor in the public life of the [Root.GovernmentName], in many ways these are small communities within the community, with their own rules, customs and even laws. It is also very common for these associations to indulge in mystic traditions, sufism and often unorthodox adaption of the Sharia. Something that sometimes makes it hard for the laws of the Ulema to penetrate the urban milieu.
An artisan in [fraternity_province.GetName] has reached out to the state, warning us of a local guildsman with a great influence on local affairs. Anyone wishing to take up a craft in the city is currently required to be approved by this man and then swear an oath of allegiance.

Social Dissent and Popular Sufism
![]() |
Please help with verifying or updating this infobox. It was last verified for version 1.32. |
The great stress that our government has placed on Legalism and the limiting of Mysticism in our society has had the effect of closely associating Sufism with resistance to central rule. In times of social distress many now look to the Mystical orders for spiritual guidance as an alternative to the highly legalistic Ulema and its [Root.GovernmentName] ally.
As tensions flare in [popular_sufism_province.GetName] an influential Sufi Master declared his support for [Root.Monarch.GetTitle], potentially calming the situation.

While they are quite new to our society the use of stimulants such as Coffee and Tobacco has spread quickly, with coffee houses now a common feature from [Root.Capital.GetCapitalName] to [coffee_province.GetAreaName]. The popularity is especially marked among the Sufi orders. The novelty of these substances means that the religious establishment is divided on their proper use.
Many strict legalists wants us to limit their use while others argue for caution, as both Coffee and Tobacco are very popular in our state.

Convert Hagia Sophia into a Mosque

Byzantine Emperor Justinian I built Hagia Sophia in 532, choosing Isidore of Miletus and Anthemius of Tralles to be the architects. The church was built with Hellenistic columns from the Temple of Artemis at Ephesus, large stones from quarries in porphyry from Egypt, green marble from Thessaly, black stone from the Bosporus region, and yellow stone from Syria. That a Christian church is still in use does not please the people, who wish it to be transformed into a mosque. It is also in dire need of renovation, and should be repaired before it is made into a mosque.

The many rituals of Hajj include Tawaf, where the pilgrims visit the Kaaba and walk around it seven times counter-clockwise uttering a prayer in each circuit, ending the ritual by praying and running or walking seven times between the hills of Safa and Marwah. The next day the pilgrims leave for Mount Arafat, where they stand in contemplative vigil and pray and recite the Qur'an. The night is spent sleeping on the ground of Muzdalifah. The day after, the pilgrims throw stones to signify their defiance of the Devil at the largest pillar known as Jamrat'al'Aqabah. When the seven stones have been thrown, the pilgrims slaughter animals to commemorate the story of Abraham and Ishmael. The pilgrimage is almost over, but some tasks still remain.

Formerly the slave-soldiers of $COUNTRY$ were trained and educated at their master's expense, serving him in any capacity he wished for. Most of them were soldiers, some were administrators but they all had converted to Islam. Some of them still linger in $COUNTRY$, without a master and searching for some way to bring meaning back into their lives. The ghulams have even sent a deputy to the $MONARCHTITLE$, asking if they may find service in $COUNTRY$.

Convert Hagia Sophia into a Mosque

Please help with verifying or updating this infobox. It was last verified for version 1.32. |
Byzantine Emperor Justinian I built Hagia Sophia in 532, choosing Isidore of Miletus and Anthemius of Tralles to be the architects. The church was built with Hellenistic columns from the Temple of Artemis at Ephesus, large stones from quarries in porphyry from Egypt, green marble from Thessaly, black stone from the Bosporus region, and yellow stone from Syria. That a Christian church is still in use does not please the people, who wish it to be transformed into a mosque. It is also in dire need of renovation, and should be repaired before it is made into a mosque.

Al-Birjandi is a brilliant astronomer, mathematician and physicist whose answer to one of Qutb al-Din al-Shirazi's arguments was this: 'The small or large rock will fall to the Earth along the path of a line that is perpendicular to the plane (sath) of the horizon, this is witnessed by experience (tajriba). And this perpendicular is away from the tangent point of the Earth's sphere and the plane of the perceived (hissi) horizon. This point moves with the motion of the Earth and thus there will be no difference in place of fall of the two rocks.'. He has written many books, including Sharh al-tadhkirah or 'A commentary on al-Tusi's memoir' discussing astronomical elements.

Shiite vs Sunni

Any true Shiite knows that only the heirs of the fourth caliph, Ali, are the legitimate successors of Mohammed. The Sunni believe that the first four caliphs - Mohammed's successors - rightfully took his place as the leaders of Muslims and they recognize the heirs of the four caliphs as legitimate religious leaders. We have not lived under the authority of a legitimate religious figure since the Twelfth Imam disappeared in 931. The tension between the Sunni and the Shiite in $COUNTRY$ has grown over the years and it is only due to the diplomatic corps that nothing has happened, yet.
