Since I don’t want to hear that “this is not true Islam” or “this isn’t in the quran” or anything...

https://quranx.com/3.19-20

Indeed, the religion in the sight of Allah is Islam. And those who were given the Scripture did not differ except after knowledge had come to them - out of jealous animosity between themselves. And whoever disbelieves in the verses of Allah, then indeed, Allah is swift in [taking] account.

So if they argue with you, say, "I have submitted myself to Allah [in Islam], and [so have] those who follow me." And say to those who were given the Scripture and [to] the unlearned, "Have you submitted yourselves?" And if they submit [in Islam], they are rightly guided; but if they turn away - then upon you is only the [duty of] notification. And Allah is Seeing of [His] servants.

https://quranx.com/3.83-85

So is it other than the religion of Allah they desire, while to Him have submitted [all] those within the heavens and earth, willingly or by compulsion, and to Him they will be returned?

Say, "We have believed in Allah and in what was revealed to us and what was revealed to Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, and the Descendants, and in what was given to Moses and Jesus and to the prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and we are Muslims [submitting] to Him."

And whoever desires other than Islam as religion - never will it be accepted from him, and he, in the Hereafter, will be among the losers.

https://quranx.com/5.33

Indeed, the penalty for those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger and strive upon earth [to cause] corruption is none but that they be killed or crucified or that their hands and feet be cut off from opposite sides or that they be exiled from the land. That is for them a disgrace in this world; and for them in the Hereafter is a great punishment,

https://quranx.com/Hadith/Bukhari/USC-MSA/Volume-9/Book-84/Hadith-57/

Narrated `Ikrima:

Some Zanadiqa (atheists) were brought to `Ali and he burnt them. The news of this event, reached Ibn `Abbas who said, "If I had been in his place, I would not have burnt them, as Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) forbade it, saying, 'Do not punish anybody with Allah's punishment (fire).' I would have killed them according to the statement of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), 'Whoever changed his Islamic religion, then kill him.'"

"The theory that our religion is a peaceful and loving religion is a wrong theory!" (p.73)

"The Holy war as it is known in Islam is basically an offensive war, and it is the duty of all Muslims of every age, when the needed military power is available, because our prophet Muhammad said that he is ordered by Allah to fight all people until they say 'No God but Allah,' and he is his messenger" (p.134).

"The goal of this holy war is the exaltation of the word of Allah and the establishment of Islamic society on earth. And the offensive war is the apex of all wars, and the most honorable one." (p.324)

"It is meaningless to talk about the holy war as only defensive; otherwise, what did the prophet mean when he said 'from now on even if they don't invade you, you must invade them'." (p.242)

-- Dr. Ramadan Al-Buti, “Jurisprudence of Muhammad's Biography“

https://quranx.com/Hadith/Muslim/USC-MSA/Book-1/Hadith-31

It is reported on the authority of Abu Huraira that he heard the Messenger of Allah say:

I have been commanded to fight against people, till they testify to the fact that there is no god but Allah, and believe in me (that) I am the messenger (from the Lord) and in all that I have brought. And when they do it, their blood and riches are guaranteed protection on my behalf except where it is justified by law, and their affairs rest with Allah.

https://quranx.com/Hadith/Bukhari/USC-MSA/Volume-4/Book-52/Hadith-196

Narrated Abu Huraira:

Allah 's Apostle said, " I have been ordered to fight with the people till they say, 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah,' and whoever says, 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah,' his life and property will be saved by me except for Islamic law, and his accounts will be with Allah, (either to punish him or to forgive him.)"

https://quranx.com/Hadith/Bukhari/USC-MSA/Volume-1/Book-8/Hadith-387

Narrated Anas bin Malik:

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "I have been ordered to fight the people till they say: 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.' And if they say so, pray like our prayers, face our Qibla and slaughter as we slaughter, then their blood and property will be sacred to us and we will not interfere with them except legally and their reckoning will be with Allah."

https://quranx.com/hadith/Bukhari/DarusSalam/Hadith-4557/

Narrated Abu Huraira:

The Verse:--"You (true Muslims) are the best of peoples ever raised up for mankind." means, the best of peoples for the people, as you bring them with chains on their necks till they embrace Islam.

https://quranx.com/2.193

Fight them until there is no [more] fitnah and [until] worship is [acknowledged to be] for Allah. But if they cease, then there is to be no aggression except against the oppressors.

https://quranx.com/9.5

And when the sacred months have passed, then kill the polytheists wherever you find them and capture them and besiege them and sit in wait for them at every place of ambush. But if they should repent, establish prayer, and give zakah, let them [go] on their way. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.

https://quranx.com/8.60

And prepare against them whatever you are able of power and of steeds of war by which you may terrify the enemy of Allah and your enemy and others besides them whom you do not know [but] whom Allah knows. And whatever you spend in the cause of Allah will be fully repaid to you, and you will not be wronged.

https://quranx.com/9.29

Fight those who do not believe in Allah or in the Last Day and who do not consider unlawful what Allah and His Messenger have made unlawful and who do not adopt the religion of truth from those who were given the Scripture - [fight] until they give the jizyah willingly while they are humbled.

https://quranx.com/7.80-83

And [We had sent] Lot when he said to his people, "Do you commit such immorality as no one has preceded you with from among the worlds?

Indeed, you approach men with desire, instead of women. Rather, you are a transgressing people."

But the answer of his people was only that they said, "Evict them from your city! Indeed, they are men who keep themselves pure."

So We saved him and his family, except for his wife; she was of those who remained [with the evildoers].

https://quranx.com/Hadith/AbuDawud/DarusSalam/Hadith-4462

Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas:

The Prophet (ﷺ) said: If you find anyone doing as Lot's people did, kill the one who does it, and the one to whom it is done. Abu Dawud said: A similar tradition has also been transmitted by Sulaiman b. Bilal from 'Amr b. Abi 'Umar. And 'Abbad b. Mansur transmitted it from 'Ikrimah on the authority of Ibn 'Abbas who transmitted it from the Prophet (ﷺ). It has also been transmitted by Ibn Juraij from Ibrahim from Dawud b. Al-Husain from 'Ikrimah on the authority of Ibn 'Abbas who transmitted it from the Prophet (ﷺ).

https://quranx.com/4.16

And the two who commit it among you, dishonor them both. But if they repent and correct themselves, leave them alone. Indeed, Allah is ever Accepting of repentance and Merciful.

https://quranx.com/Tafsir/Kathir/4.15

(And the two persons among you who commit illegal sexual intercourse, punish them both.) Ibn `Abbas and Sa`id bin Jubayr said that this punishment includes cursing, shaming them and beating them with sandals. This was the ruling until Allah abrogated it with flogging or stoning, as we stated. Mujahid said, "It was revealed about the case of two men who do it.'' As if he was referring to the actions of the people of Lut, and Allah knows best. The collectors of Sunan recorded that Ibn `Abbas said that the Messenger of Allah said,

(Whoever you catch committing the act of the people of Lut (homosexuality), then kill both parties to the act.)

And tell the believing women to reduce [some] of their vision and guard their private parts and not expose their adornment except that which [necessarily] appears thereof and to wrap [a portion of] their headcovers over their chests and not expose their adornment except to their husbands, their fathers, their husbands' fathers, their sons, their husbands' sons, their brothers, their brothers' sons, their sisters' sons, their women, that which their right hands possess, or those male attendants having no physical desire, or children who are not yet aware of the private aspects of women. And let them not stamp their feet to make known what they conceal of their adornment. And turn to Allah in repentance, all of you, O believers, that you might succeed.

https://quranx.com/33.59

O Prophet, tell your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers to bring down over themselves [part] of their outer garments. That is more suitable that they will be known and not be abused. And ever is Allah Forgiving and Merciful.

https://quranx.com/33.36

It is not for a believing man or a believing woman, when Allah and His Messenger have decided a matter, that they should [thereafter] have any choice about their affair. And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger has certainly strayed into clear error.

https://quranx.com/Hadith/Tirmidhi/Reference/Hadith-1173

Abdullah narrated that The Prophet said:

“The woman is Awrah, so when she goes out, the Shaitan seeks to tempt her.��

https://islamqa.info/en/answers/11774/is-covering-the-face-obligatory

The evidence from this verse (i.e. 24:31, above) that hijab is obligatory for women is as follows:

(a) Allaah commands the believing women to guard their chastity, and the command to guard their chastity also a command to follow all the means of doing that. No rational person would doubt that one of the means of doing so is covering the face, because uncovering it causes people to look at it and enjoy its beauty, and thence to initiate contact. The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The eyes commit zina and their zina is by looking…” then he said, “… and the private part confirms that or denies it.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 6612; Muslim, 2657.

If covering the face is one of the means of guarding one’s chastity, then it is enjoined, because the means come under the same ruling as the ends.

(b) Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): “…and to draw their veils all over Juyoobihinna (i.e. their bodies, faces, necks and bosoms) …”. The jayb (pl. juyoob) is the neck opening of a garment and the khimaar (veil) is that with which a woman covers her head. If a woman is commanded to draw her veil over the neck opening of her garment then she is commanded to cover her face, either because that is implied or by analogy. If it is obligatory to cover the throat and chest, then it is more appropriate to cover the face because it is the site of beauty and attraction.

(c) Allaah has forbidden showing all adornment except that which is apparent, which is that which one cannot help showing, such as the outside of one's garment. Hence Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): “…except only that which is apparent …” and He did not say, except that which they show of it. Some of the salaf, such as Ibn Mas’ood, al-Hasan, Ibn Sireen and others interpreted the phrase “except only that which is apparent” as meaning the outer garment and clothes, and what shows from beneath the outer garment (i.e., the hem of one’s dress etc.). Then He again forbids showing one’s adornment except to those for whom He makes an exception. This indicates that the second adornment mentioned is something other than the first adornment. The first adornment is the external adornment which appears to everyone and cannot be hidden. The second adornment is the inward adornment (including the face). If it were permissible for this adornment to be seen by everyone, there would be no point to the general wording in the first instance and this exception made in the second.

(d) Allaah grants a concession allowing a woman to show her inward adornments to “old male servants who lack vigour”, i.e. servants who are men who have no desire, and to small children who have not reached the age of desire and have not seen the ‘awrahs of women. This indicates two things:

1 – That showing inward adornments to non-mahrams is not permissible except to these two types of people.

2 – That the reason for this ruling is the fear that men may be tempted by the woman and fall in love with her. Undoubtedly the face is the site of beauty and attraction, so concealing it is obligatory lest men who do feel desire be attracted and tempted by her.

https://quranx.com/hadith/Bukhari/DarusSalam/Hadith-6612/

Narrated Ibn `Abbas:

I did not see anything so resembling minor sins as what Abu Huraira said from the Prophet, who said, "Allah has written for the son of Adam his inevitable share of adultery whether he is aware of it or not: The adultery of the eye is the looking (at something which is sinful to look at), and the adultery of the tongue is to utter (what it is unlawful to utter), and the innerself wishes and longs for (adultery) and the private parts turn that into reality or refrain from submitting to the temptation."

Fatawa: Can Muslim Parents Force Hijab on Daughters?

[..]

Sheikh Muhammad Al-Mukhtar Al-Shinqiti, director of the Islamic Center of South Plains, Lubbock, Texas, states: "They [Muslim parents] should try their best to convince her to wear hijab and she should know that she is not to refuse something that has been ordained by Allah in the first place and that was also ordained by her parents, who deserve her obedience." Dr. Muhammad Abu Laylah, professor of Islamic Studies and Comparative Religions at Al-Azhar University adds: "What those writers say about forcing hijab on Muslim women is a false allegation put forward by some Westerners against Islam and the Muslim woman. The main objective behind such allegation is to encourage the Muslim woman to break the laws of the Muslim family and disobey her parents. It is not a call for liberation or giving Muslim women their rights. Allah Almighty has entrusted parents with their children. Parents bear the responsibility to raise up their children in the Islamic way. If they do that, they will be blessed in this life and in the Hereafter, and if they don't, they will get bad result during their life and in the Hereafter. In Islam, parents are not to force their children to do anything that is considered against the law of the Shari`ah. That is why Islam has ordered parents to take care of their children and to bring them up according to the Islamic manners. Hijab is an obligation from Allah on Muslim women. The obligation is referred to in the Qur'an and the Sunnah. The Muslim woman must wear it and the Muslim parents should encourage their daughters to wear it." Sheikh `Abdul-Majeed Subh, a prominent Azhar scholar, adds: "What those thinkers say about forcing hijab on women is a false allegation. Many Europeans know well that hijab is an obligation from Allah and they are all aware of the fact that when a non-Muslim woman embraces Islam, she must wear hijab. The father, as the guardian of his family, may stress that his daughter should wear hijab in case she refuses to wear it out of disobedience to the obligation of Allah. Here, I would seize the opportunity to give a piece of advice to Muslim parents. Fathers and mothers should note that they are responsible before Allah for the affairs of their daughters that have been entrusted to them; they should raise their daughters according to the Islamic manners. So if a girl is approaching puberty, there is the fear that her not wearing hijab may cause young men to be tempted by her or her by them. Hence in this situation her parent or guardian has to make her wear hijab so as to prevent means that may lead to evil or immorality."

https://quranx.com/2.282

O you who have believed, when you contract a debt for a specified term, write it down. And let a scribe write [it] between you in justice. Let no scribe refuse to write as Allah has taught him. So let him write and let the one who has the obligation dictate. And let him fear Allah, his Lord, and not leave anything out of it. But if the one who has the obligation is of limited understanding or weak or unable to dictate himself, then let his guardian dictate in justice. And bring to witness two witnesses from among your men. And if there are not two men [available], then a man and two women from those whom you accept as witnesses - so that if one of the women errs, then the other can remind her. And let not the witnesses refuse when they are called upon. [..]

https://quranx.com/Hadith/Bukhari/DarusSalam/Hadith-2658

Narrated Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri:

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Isn't the witness of a woman equal to half of that of a man?" The women said, "Yes." He said, "This is because of the deficiency of a woman's mind."

https://quranx.com/Hadith/Bukhari/DarusSalam/Hadith-1462

Narrated Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri:

On `Id ul Fitr or `Id ul Adha Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) (p.b.u.h) went out to the Musalla. After finishing the prayer, he delivered the sermon and ordered the people to give alms. He said, "O people! Give alms." Then he went towards the women and said. "O women! Give alms, for I have seen that the majority of the dwellers of Hell-Fire were you (women)." The women asked, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! What is the reason for it?" He replied, "O women! You curse frequently, and are ungrateful to your husbands. I have not seen anyone more deficient in intelligence and religion than you. O women, some of you can lead a cautious wise man astray." Then he left. [..]

https://quranx.com/Hadith/Muslim/USC-MSA/Book-1/Hadith-142/

It is narrated on the authority of 'Abdullah b. Umar that the Messenger of Allah observed:

O womenfolk, you should give charity and ask much forgiveness for I saw you in bulk amongst the dwellers of Hell. A wise lady among them said: Why is it, Messenger of Allah, that our folk is in bulk in Hell? Upon this the Prophet observed: You curse too much and are ungrateful to your spouses. I have seen none lacking in common sense and failing in religion but (at the same time) robbing the wisdom of the wise, besides you. Upon this the woman remarked: What is wrong with our common sense and with religion? He (the Holy Prophet) observed: Your lack of common sense (can be well judged from the fact) that the evidence of two women is equal to one man, that is a proof of the lack of common sense, and you spend some nights (and days) in which you do not offer prayer and in the month of Ramadan (during the days) you do not observe fast, that is a failing in religion.

https://quranx.com/Hadith/Bukhari/DarusSalam/Hadith-304

Narrated Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri:

Once Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) went out to the Musalla (to offer the prayer) of `Id-al-Adha or Al-Fitr prayer. Then he passed by the women and said, "O women! Give alms, as I have seen that the majority of the dwellers of Hell-fire were you (women)." They asked, "Why is it so, O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) ?" He replied, "You curse frequently and are ungrateful to your husbands. I have not seen anyone more deficient in intelligence and religion than you. A cautious sensible man could be led astray by some of you." The women asked, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! What is deficient in our intelligence and religion?" He said, "Is not the evidence of two women equal to the witness of one man?" They replied in the affirmative. He said, "This is the deficiency in her intelligence. Isn't it true that a woman can neither pray nor fast during her menses?" The women replied in the affirmative. He said, "This is the deficiency in her religion."

https://quranx.com/Hadith/Bukhari/DarusSalam/Hadith-7099

Narrated Abu Bakra:

During the battle of Al-Jamal, Allah benefited me with a Word (I heard from the Prophet). When the Prophet heard the news that the people of the Persia had made the daughter of Khosrau their Queen (ruler), he said, "Never will succeed such a nation as makes a woman their ruler."

https://quranx.com/4.11

Allah instructs you concerning your children: for the male, what is equal to the share of two females. But if there are [only] daughters, two or more, for them is two thirds of one's estate. And if there is only one, for her is half. And for one's parents, to each one of them is a sixth of his estate if he left children. But if he had no children and the parents [alone] inherit from him, then for his mother is one third. And if he had brothers [or sisters], for his mother is a sixth, after any bequest he [may have] made or debt. Your parents or your children - you know not which of them are nearest to you in benefit. [These shares are] an obligation [imposed] by Allah. Indeed, Allah is ever Knowing and Wise.

https://quranx.com/4.34

Men are in charge of women by [right of] what Allah has given one over the other and what they spend [for maintenance] from their wealth. So righteous women are devoutly obedient, guarding in [the husband's] absence what Allah would have them guard. But those [wives] from whom you fear arrogance - [first] advise them; [then if they persist], forsake them in bed; and [finally], strike them. But if they obey you [once more], seek no means against them. Indeed, Allah is ever Exalted and Grand.

https://muslim-library.com/books/2019/05/en_Tabari_Volume_09.pdf

“Now then, 0 people, you have a right over your wives and they have a right over you. You have [the right) that they should not cause anyone of whom you dislike to tread your beds; and that they should not commit any open indecency (fāḥishah). If they do, then God permits you to shut them in separate rooms and to beat them, but not severely. If they abstain from [evil], they have the right to their food and clothing in accordance with custom (bi’l-ma‘rūf). Treat women well, for they are [like] domestic animals (awān) with you and do not possess anything for themselves. You have taken them only as a trust from God, and you have made the enjoyment of their persons lawful by the word of God, so understand and listen to my words, 0 people.”

- The History of al-Tabari, Volume IX: “The Last Years of the Prophet”, page 113.

https://quranx.com/Hadith/Bukhari/DarusSalam/Hadith-5825

Narrated `Ikrima:

Rifa`a divorced his wife whereupon `AbdurRahman bin Az-Zubair Al-Qurazi married her. `Aisha said that the lady (came), wearing a green veil (and complained to her (Aisha) of her husband and showed her a green spot on her skin caused by beating). It was the habit of ladies to support each other, so when Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) came, `Aisha said, "I have not seen any woman suffering as much as the believing women. Look! Her skin is greener than her clothes!"

https://quranx.com/Hadith/AbuDawud/DarusSalam/Hadith-2146

Iyas ibn Abdullah ibn Abu Dhubab reported the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) as saying:

Do not beat Allah's handmaidens, but when Umar came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: Women have become emboldened towards their husbands, he (the Prophet) gave permission to beat them. Then many women came round the family of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) complaining against their husbands. So the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Many women have gone round Muhammad's family complaining against their husbands. They are not the best among you.

https://quranx.com/Hadith/IbnMajah/Reference/Hadith-1986

It was narrated that Ash'ath bin Qais said:

"I was a guest (at the home) of 'Umar one night, and in the middle of the night he went and hit his wife, and I separated them. When he went to bed he said to me: 'O Ash'ath, learn from me something that I heard from the Messenger of Allah" A man should not be asked why he beats his wife, and do not go to sleep until you have prayed the Witr."' And I forgot the third thing."

https://quranx.com/2.222-223

And they ask you about menstruation. Say, "It is harm, so keep away from wives during menstruation. And do not approach them until they are pure. And when they have purified themselves, then come to them from where Allah has ordained for you. Indeed, Allah loves those who are constantly repentant and loves those who purify themselves."

Your wives are a place of sowing of seed for you, so come to your place of cultivation however you wish and put forth [righteousness] for yourselves. And fear Allah and know that you will meet Him. And give good tidings to the believers.

https://quranx.com/hadith/Bukhari/DarusSalam/Hadith-3237/

Narrated Abu Huraira:

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "If a husband calls his wife to his bed (i.e. to have sexual relation) and she refuses and causes him to sleep in anger, the angels will curse her till morning."

https://quranx.com/hadith/Muslim/Reference/Hadith-1436/

Abu Huraira (Allah be pleased with him) reported that Allah's Apostle (ﷺ) said:

When a woman spends the night away from the bed of her husband, the angels curse her until morning.

https://www.google.com/books/edition/_/SpqM4KZNH2UC?hl=en&gbpv=1&pg=PA170-171

Shaykh al-Islam In Taymiyah (may Allah have mercy on him) was asked what a husband should do if his wife refuses him when he asks for intimacy.

He replied:

It is not permissible for her to rebel against him or to withhold herself from him, rather if she refuses him and persists in doing so, he may hit her in a manner that does not cause injury, and she is not entitled to spending or a share of his time lin the case of plural marriage]." Majmoo' al-Fataawa, 32/279.

And he was asked about a man who has a wife who is rebellious and refuses intimacy - does she forfeit the right to maintenance and clothing, and what should she do?

He replied:

She forfeits her right to maintenance and clothing if she does not let him be intimate with her. He has the right to hit her if she persists in being defiant. It is not permissible for her to refuse intimacy if he asks for that, rather she is disobeying Allah and His Messenger (by refusing). In al-Saheeh it says: "If a man calls his wife to his bed and she refuses, the One Who is in heaven will be angry with her until morning comes."

From Majmoo' al-Fataawa, 32/278. The hadeeth was narrated by Muslim, 1736.

So the wife should be admonished first, and warned against defiance (nushooz) and of the anger of Allah and the curse of the angels. If she does not respond, then the husband should forsake her in her bed, and if she does not respond to that, then he may hit her in a manner that does not cause injury. If none of these steps are effective, then he may stop spending on her maintenance and clothing, and he has the right to divorce her or to allow her to separate from him by khula' in return for some financial settlement, such as giving up the mahr.

Similarly a slave woman does not have the right to refuse her master's requests unless she has a valid excuse. If she does that she is being disobedient and he has the right to discipline her in whatever manner he thinks is appropriate and is allowed in sharee' ah.

And Allah knows best.

[furbinthewoods]

aaaa someone just commented on my old push start tutorial that they used it!! however sadly it sounds like it hasnt fully fixed their furb :(

based on the short description they gave, i have a guess at what is wrong and i wanna make a vid reply to them to try n help. however beyond push starting my technical expertise is pretty limited, so if anyone can help me out or tell me where to point them it’d be most appreciated (i would credit u in the vid if u would like)

here’s the comment they left:

my theory is that it’s two things. one is a broken voicebox, much like my furb [redacted], since it’s moving but not necessarily making noise. two is MSA, since it opened eyes, says something, and then closes eyes again.

does that sound about right? if not, any thoughts on what it may be? any ideas for how to fix things?

input would be super appreciated, as would reblogs to hopefully get this out to someone who may know more. thanks <3

MSA Paraclete SOHPC, but red

Okay guys, this one's a bit of a mystery to me So far theories range from this thing being a test sample to a custom batch for LE Firearms Instructors, Noncombatant/Civilian Personnel, Rescue Teams, etc.

Whatever the reason, this is definitely a very late model MSA SOHPC made of bright red cordura fabric. This thing was so weird and wonderfully awful I needed to grab it.

Surprising to nobody, the quality on this thing is quite substandard. The edge binding isn't actually grosgrain, but strips of cordura folded over raw edge - I had to remove several loose strands before taking these photos.

The cummerbund also seems to have integral soft armor or padding of some sort, despite the presence of side armor pouches, whatever's in this thing is non-removable.

For comparison, here's a Pre-MSA Paraclete HPC in 'Smoke Green' with its flamboyantly gay younger sibling.

I am so scared to stick to a backstory for Mystery because like - just you watch. They’ll release the next MSA video and reveal that all of my theories and headcanons are horribly wrong. 🥲

Yeahhh it been a while.... mind telling me what have you been working on?

uhhh well let's see. i can't remember when i started anything so i don't remember what you were here for but in like, some kinda order

the most recent thing i posted Content for is sinnoh is silent/pladoption au which is just a fun time with ingo adopting protag akari and zero actual plot

there's also now origin visions where as a side effect of the rift ingo has prophetic dreams now (kind of)

and then disk constructs which you may or may not have seen the start of i don't remember. anyway, this is a pla & scarvi au combining the "you have a time machine and you're using it to teleport dinosaurs??" meme with the theory that the crater entity is NOT actually doing time travel and is instead just creating new entities from whole cloth. sada/turo attempt to bring ingo and akari back to the present, and instead receive bad copies based on their extremely limited familiarity with them, and nobody's any the wiser. very black mirror as someone else called it

oh and there's also now more plot and a fic for the pla/msa crossover

and then someone threw a warriors au at me but i haven't made a tag for that one yet so it's just floating around in the pokefic pitch tag. and at this very moment we are discussing various methods of breaking ingo's legs. that's everything i can think of? the masterpost in my pinned is still basically up to date but that's also Very long ghskjshksjh

This is just me saying that Artie and Kevin become really close bc a lot of the feelings and emotions that Kevin’s going through Artie already did so he’s just. There for him a lot

He has a moonstone necklace! Artisans streber made a special case for it so it didn’t break! It doesn’t stop him from wolfing out on full moon, but it A. Keeps him a lot more conscious and in control while wolfed out and B. Stops him from subconsciously wolfing out bc of strong emotions (which me and crossover came up with a time that that happened but it’s long so I’ll put it in another ask)

Also me and crossie have accepted the theory that the reason that werewolves are so angy is bc the transformation uses a lot of energy and they’re actually just hungry

The moonstone was Streber’s idea btw

Also like vivi gets Kevin a lot of food for the day of the transformation so that he’s not angy

She has had to get emergency doordash before AND threw random things from the pantry at Kevin (she once just threw a load of bread at him and was like YOU. EAT THIS)

Also have you watched msa

Mystery feels guilty about letting this happen

Also me and crossie came up with a lot of Sam/Lucas things :>

Also we came up with a new alignment chart

1 Artie deffo gave him little tips Abt how to control it and stuff like that

2 THAT'S BRILLIANT however I feel like when he has worn the moon necklace once, he broke it on accident

3 VIVI NOW HAS A WHOLE ROOM DEDICATED TO FOOD BC OF RHIS LIKE SHE HAS A MINI ROOM FULL OF SNACKS AND FOOD JUST INCASE

4 yes indeed I have :]

5 ALSO ALIGNMENT CHART?

let’s talk about shiro :)

 so... recently. i was kind of going back through logs, kinda glancing at like- some character stuff for my AU, and i found something i was ranting about- something that... I don’t know, I haven’t seen a ton of people talk about??? im sure there’s been some but. well. let’s get into it, huh?

shiromori comes off, a lot I think, as a figure that doesn’t give a flying fuck about anybody but herself. that doesn’t need to care about anything else, and makes a lot of evil smiling faces, etc. she likes being a bad bitch, and hey man, if i was an ancient tree demon maybe i would like it too!!! who knows! i can’t blame her for that! but... in the future. she... she barely smiles. there’s a noticeable tone shift.

and of course. this is the reason, right here. mystery and shiro’s dynamic has always been quite an interesting one, but... well. the second she sees mystery has someone else now... it’s not so fun to play the bad guy anymore.

and this is noteworthy- he never actually hurts her. he pulls the move above, yeah. but it’s something i think he knows she’ll walk away from. he only defends vivi. he only behaves offensively once, and even then, we’re not really sure it’s even... him in control. 

and when she gets hurt.

mystery defends her. look at the way she’s looking at him in this shot.

she can’t believe he’s doing this for her. that he’s looking out for her, possibly for the first time in hundreds of years. this is absolutely heartbreaking. this is what convinces me that mystery completely abandoned her. sure, we don’t know why. maybe he had a good reason. but it doesn’t change what he might have done.

and he asks vivi not to kill her. this is a specific, undeniable request. he is asking vivi not to hurt her. there is nothing else this could mean. vivi seems to get the message, too.

and she... this... expression reads to me as... hope. hope that, for the first time in so long, maybe he’ll stay with her. maybe he does fucking care about her. maybe he gives a shit, and he’s gonna stay, and be there with her.

and he knows. there’s no way he doesn’t know. this is guilt. this is absolute guilt. 

and then???? 

he fucking abandons her again. he walks away. he registers the look on her face. their history. everything. and he does it anyway. why??? i dont know. i really dont know all the pieces of this puzzle, but until we do, this reads as a real shitty move on mystery’s part.

so you know what????

i don’t blame her for this. i don’t blame her, because he abandoned her again. she’s acting out of pain, and fuck, i would be so angry and hurt too. i don’t think she needed to involve vivi, but... well, that’s another topic.

bitch please you shoulda known she might do something like this.... c’mon man

and then. of course. it happens. of course she goes in for the big leagues. and she’s not having fun anymore. none of this is fun anymore. this is pure pain.

and now. now is when he finally goes on the offensive. although, as i said before? note the green. we don’t even really know if this is mystery or not.

and she goes in for it!!!! and. yeah she looks scary as hell in this but... she’s blinded by her emotions and rage. kinda sounds like someone else we know, huh?

and we don’t see this confrontation. i think that’s for a reason. we just see mystery rolling away. thing is, i wonder if the reason she was able to land this blow was because he pulled back a bit. yes, he still hurt her, and we see it- we see her open heart but... you have to wonder if the reason that he got hurt... like... seemingly worse, was because he didn’t do as much damage as he could have done. i think he might have restrained himself.

and maybe she didn’t expect that. maybe she hoped, or thought, he would go all in. and protect himself somewhat. maybe she didn’t expect to hurt him that badly. i think we’ve already fully established that, deep down, she didn’t want to hurt him at all to begin with. she just... wished he hadn’t hurt her. that he cared about her.

and thing is, folks? he does. he 100% does. he’s fucking horrified. 

this is immensely painful. he does care. he fucked up, he made mistakes, his mistakes led to this. and it’s mortifying. and you know what? he trusted vivi too. he trusted vivi not to hurt shiro. he asked her not to, didn’t he? he trusted that she wouldn’t. and then she did.

and all he can fucking do is watch this. watch her reach out to him. he’s hurt her so much. she’s hurt him too, likely, though we haven’t see tons and tons of evidence of this. just her being sneaky and devious. but like... this is it. this is, seemingly, how their story ends. through the injuries they caused one another. 

and thing is. yeah, a lot of this is on him but. not all of it.

he may have caused the events leading up to this moment.

but he was not the one who ended her tragic, and heartbreaking tale. he was not the one who turned her into a husk. only one person did that.

and i think? i think that said person may very well be his next target.

More canons on medium!Arthur:

He discovered that he was a medium accidentally, to be more specific, in one of his cases, he ended up using his medium powers to defend his friends and.. Then he fainted, terrified by the shock.

He is a class one medium, these are known to be somewhat weak, since they do not know how to control their powers well. Those who belong to this class are usually those who know absolutely nothing about the existence of their abilities and what they can do with them.

After getting used to using his powers in some of the investigations, with the passage of time he became a class two medium. This made him more versatile to be possessed by the spirits, for which Vivi he had no choice but to make several amulets to avoid that.. Although Arthur is able to control whether or not ghosts enter his body, but that depends on several things ..

His skills consist of several types of telekinesis, psychic powers, certain manipulation of electricity (although he does not use it as much because it tires him too much), and easy communication with the spirits.

Lewis noticed something in Arthur the first time he saw him in "Ghost", only that he ignored him because of his desire for revenge and because the boy wore a protective amulet (the star pin) in his orange vest. If it had taken time to see it better, it would have occurred to Arthur that Arthur was literally radiating a radiant aura of yellow-orange light into the spiritual world.

Normally the people who obtain these skills are pure of heart and soul, always putting others first than themselves. Arthur is all this.

The Kingsmen family has a great record with the supernatural and the colossal, literally, too colossal. Some of Arthur's relatives were detectives or paranormal investigators who were well-known in their times, besides these (including Lance and Arthur) they were and are descendants of a king that lived centuries ago.

Arthur is the reincarnation of Arthurus (but normally called only King Arthur), the King Of the Round Table.

Interestingly, it is common to find several psychic mediums in the Kingsmen family, it seems that this is predestined ..

I just knew those lines in pages 9-11 were lyrics! From Losing My Mind by Mistery Skulls.

I’m really curious if they’re gonna use that song in the next animation, it feels intense enough for what is gonna happen next.

That and I think it could mix well with the definitely confusion and terror Arthur will go through. I mean, he saw Mystery’s real form (which he doesn’t had fond memories of), found out his missing best friend is dead, Vivi is hurt and he probably has to run from their dog/kitsune friend possessed by a very familiar green demon/thing.

Now he’s probably regretting his suggestion of that road trip.

New year, new Mystery Skulls Animated update!

With these last 2 pages, our mini comic comes to an end. We’d like to give a big thank you to @thepurpah and Caitlin Pennell for their amazing contributions to this project. Here is the entire Losing My Mind comic from beginning to end for ease of viewing! We’ll also be posting the full pages in one post on our Patreon soon for everyone else to view outside of tumblr. :) Video production updates can be found on Patreon: CLICK HERE! EDIT: Sorry, one of the pages decided to get eaten by tumblr, but it should be fixed now!

Ok but hear me out...

Makes me wonder if the wings are part of the costume or something...else

My brain:

[robozombii]

Character bingo for Duet and Rooster (who only appeared for like two scenes but I know that if the videos end without him getting compensation for the absolute shitshow that destroyed his vehicle I will be upset)

HELP same rooster has seen too much😭 but yeah i gotchu

and duet is only ever seen in like. the COMIC. which im very passionate about but still i wanna see them animated!!!

im VERY opinionated on the idea that duet and chloe are wayyyy more involved with the msa plot then people make em out to be. i mean, hello??? the magic book?? the evil chloe theory??????? duet LITERALLY WAS THE INCITING INCIDENT. THAT DROVE THE GANG TO EXPLORE THE MANSION (pun not intended) I HAVE FUCKING PRESENTATION SLIDES OVER TH-

roosters a guy :D pathetic man. sopping wet id dip him in milk. i really dont know much about him and his origins though? my brain tells me hes someones featured persona but that could just be false memory. but i seriously feel so bad that he got involved in this nonsense lmao, i think even a small appearance at the end would make me happy. idk. give him his (fixed) truck back. lewis could spook-ify the gangs van instead!

[joyfulness03]

Ey I’ll throw my hot-take hat in the ring a year early, why not?

i’m a year and some too early but have fun

A few notes about Mystery’s tails (The Future spoilers)

So just to start out, we see Mystery had 6 tails during Ghost.

Then during most of The Future, he has 7 tails. He has 7 from the moment he changes in the beginning and bites his arm. He may have had 7 during the small shot we saw of his kitsune form in Freaking Out but it was hard to tell with how the shots were ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I think there may have concept art around that time with 7 tails? Maybe the 7th appeared with Lewis’s death, since the 6 tails shown in Ghost was a flashback of the cave?

Then Vivi gets hurt by Shiromori. We see this blue energy burst out of Mystery’s heart and an 8th tail appear.

Then he gets hurt and Vivi smacks Shiromori’s heart out of the park. Mystery looks horrified as she crumbles and now white energy bursts from his heart. Now we see the 9th tail appear, and Mystery faints.

Mystery then is possessed by the spirit of the cave, likely due to the emotional stress making him let his guard down. Also supported by Arthur’s conflicted emotions being implied to make him a target for possession. A weak heart likely = easy possession.

(The colors I find interesting since they seem to pertain to certain people (or even events). Shiromori was white (fitting since Shiromori means “white forest”). Vivi was blue. Yellow could’ve been due to the incident with Arthur’s arm and maybe pink for Lewis’s death?? But there’s obviously a lot more going on here and the seeming connection to his tails is a tad confusing. Could it just be a case of his powers going out of control due to the distress? He’s been concealing himself for sometime so??? It’s hard to speculate on that point with the little it we’ve seen so far. )

Note: Mystery does seem to have 9 tails in Hellbent during the quick flashbacks with Shiromori.

Some notes about Kitsune from various folklore:

The more tails they have the more old, wise, and powerful they are.

They can shapeshift, though typically into humans.

Some tales say they have a hard time hiding their tails while shape shifting.

They gain tails as they age. They get their 2nd tail at around 100 years old, and the 9th at 1,000 years old.

9-tailed kitsune can be white or golden colored. They’re called Tenko at this stage and considered celestial beings.

Kitsune associated with Inari are also white. They are called Zenko.

Kitsune are true to their word, and may sometime attach themself to a household to repay a debt.

They will use their powers to help their companion as long as the human treats them with respect.

They are generally mischievous and cunning, and will play tricks on the arrogant, prideful, and greedy.

They can create illusions or visions.

Do with all this what you will. Add to it, correct it, whatever. I’m just trying to get down all my observations before forgetting and returning to the void.
