I played Kaveh's Hangout and I'm being haunted by him now 💀
Anyways I want to write Kirara but I already know I'll focus on her being a nekomata more than anything else xd
Also Comrade um.
I'm not being rude I hope but could you please tell me what some of the things in Sumeru are based off? I really want to know more :D
Kaveh's hangout was SO good one of the few hangouts that didn't bore me and it was better than even some of the story quests <3
You aren't being rude at all! There are so many things I don't know where to start lmao but the biggest thing I can think of is that Sumeru being a nation full of scholars is a reference to the islamic golden age where scholars would come to baghdad to seek knowledge.
Oh the topic of Kaveh, he is inspired by Kaveh the Blacksmith who is a famous persian (and kurdish) mythological character and is a symbol of resistance and unity against despotic foreign rulers in Iran. All of Kaveh's architecture designs (especially palace of alcazarzaray) have strong elements of persian architecture, and it's the same for the designs on his attacks! His constellations are also named after historical monuments is iran :3
Faruzan (whose name is inspired by the femine Foruzan and the masculine Farzan), there's also the term Firouzeh which is this beautiful turquoise that is seen in her character design color.
Her idle animations are a reference to the Persian Polymath Muhammad ibn Musa al-Khwarizmi, also known as the father of algebra. In her idle animation, when she's thinking if you decrypt it, this is what you'll get! All of it is a reference to "kitab al jabr and muqabla" written by Muhammad ibn Musa al-Khwarizmi himself.
And the dress she's wearing is a reference to persian architecture such as these, and the last picture is from a place called Shah Cheghrah, while her skirt style and shoes are from the Qajar period.
After her we have the man himself, Al-Haitham! He is inspired by the great iraqi mathematician, astronomer, and physicist Hasan ibn Al-Haytham from the Golden Age of Islam, and is also widely known as the father of optics!
Remember in the Archon quest when Alhaitham had to fake insanity? It's actually similar to something that happened to Hasan ibn Al-Haytham! He was invited by the cruel ruler Al-Hakim (later known as the Mad Caliph, I believe) to Egypt with a scheme to control the waters of the Nile, which is an impossible feat to do.
Although he failed to do what al-Hakim asked him to, he was still rewarded with an official government post. The more al-Hakim became more erratic, Ibn al-Haytham believed that his life would be in danger so he feigned madness to be relieved of his post!
Now on to al-Haitham's design. He has a few eye shaped deigns across his clothes which are again a reference to Ibn al-Haytham's study on optics. And his burst animation is showing light refelcting from mirrors, a reference to ibn Al-Haytham's research in light. His shoes are called babouche and worn by both men and women! Also, his name Alhaitham means "hawk", an animal that is seen as powerful figures in arabian cultures since they represents vitality and heroism, and the hawk is seen in his constellation!
Chinvat Ravine is persian and references Zoroastrianism, Ashavan Realm is sanskrit and means something along the lines of "forest with life", Ghanda Vil is a reference to hinduism and is inspired by Gandhamardan Hills located in India and is known for medicinal plants.
Mt. Damavand is a real mountain and it's considered the highest peak in Iran and Western Asia, and it's also important in folklore and mythology because it was the mythical place that was a prison to the three headed, three jawed and six eyed dragon Azhi Dahak.
A place inside the robot in the newest desert region is called Madinat-Al-Nuhas which is a reference to the Arabian the folktale city of brass!
Gate of Zulqarnain means gate of the two horned in arabic, and it's a reference to Dhu al-Qarnain who was a righteous king that travels to east and west and sets up a barrier between a certain people and Yajuj and Majuj (remember Wadi-al Majuj on the map? 😉).
House of Daena is a reference to the Grand Library of Baghdad, and Port Ormos refers to Port Hormuz that is set up on the Persian Gulf!
There are way too many are names but all of them are reference to religions/and languages!
Areas aside, the Dance of Sebzorous is based on the Iranian(and kurdish etc) New Year celebration called Newroz which celebrates the incoming of spring/life. And the dance that Nilou does is a Persian Court Dance! And her being thwarted by the Akademiya, thus "arts" being considered illegal and then her dancing in front of the Akademiya paint a picture of the current Iran where women dance in the streets in retaliation to the government. Nilou's ovarall character represents the struggles and oppression iranian women face from a government that seeks to discourage women pursuing arts and their passions.
Also remember Farris, the man who gave Yalda candies to children? He is inspired Amou Newroz (uncle Newroz) who gives candies to children. Yalda is also a term taken from the "night of Yalda" tradition which celebrated the longest night in winter (My family says 21/12 is Yalda night lol).
Moving on to the Khaverna of Good and Evil, Khvarena is a concept in Zoroastrianism and broadly emboies "glory" and "splendor". Pari is a term that quite literally means fairy in my language lolol. Anyways, Pari are originally creatures from Zoroastrianism. Originally, pari were considered as "witch" and "sorceress" but their role in mythology shifted completely in later times, and they were then considered was beautiful, feminine entities that are fundamentally good in nature.
Sorush (called so in New Persian) is a being of Yazata (divine being/creature) in Zoroastrianism and is one of the three guardians of Chinvat Ravine (bridge of judgement) along with Rashnu and Mihir. In Shahnameh, which is a collection of epic poems of Iranian mythology by the Persian poet Ferdowsi and retells man stories from Zoroastrian scripture, Sorush appears as a Pari (now benevolent creatures) to warn the Iranian king Siyamak about a calamity.
In the game, Sorush calls the Traveller Yasnapati. Yasna can be translated somewhat to "ritual", "sacrifice", and "worship". So Yasnapati in the Avestan language is "lord of ritual" which is a reference to the orginal scripture in which Sorush himself is callled "ritual lord". There are so many other things about the other Pari like Rashnu and Mihir and Zurvan but I think this has gotten pretty long enough 💀
But for funsies, Jar Jar is merely a reference to JarJar Binks from Star Wars lol.
Anyways, I hope this all helps! There are so many other things worth talking about, but I think this is enough for now lol

The story of the Zulqarnain in Surah Kahf demonstrates the true image of an ideal leader. Despite being endowed with much power over the land and people, he remained humiliated and grateful to his Lord, helped his people to stay away from the trouble and taught them the value of collective work.
May we all be guided to idealize the people pointed up and praised by our Rabb.
-Fatima Shakeel

Pse lodhemi kaq shumë në mot të nxehtë?
Mund të ju ketë ndodhur që pikërisht në këto ditë të nxehta të ndiheni më të rraskapitur se zakonisht. Pa ndonjë arsye të qartë, na duket që ndihemi më të lodhur se zakonisht në ditë me temperatura të larta, megjithatë ka një shpjegim për këtë, shkruan The Independent. “Kur moti është i ngrohtë, trupat tanë duhet të punojnë më shumë për të ftohur veten”, thotë eksperti Zulqarnain Shah.…

10 major signs of judgement day
Islam has several significant and minor indicators of the imminence of the Day of Judgement, but they all point to the manner and timing of its arrival. The Quranic findings and other hadiths give Muslims wisdom and direction beforehand so that when the time comes, they will be able to discriminate between good and wrong, even though only Allah knows the precise day. True events are predicted by Qayamah’s lesser and greater indications.
From an early age, we are taught about the approaching judgement day, and when we inquire about its exact date, we are informed that it will occur eventually. We have the texts of the Quran and the sayings of the Prophet (SAW) to confirm its authenticity. Hudhayfah bin Usayd says that as we were having a conversation, Allah’s Apostle showed up out of the blue. “What topics do you discuss?” he asked. “We are discussing the Final Hour,” the friends uttered.
The smoke, the Anti-Christ, the beast, the rising of the sun from the west, the descent of Jesus, the Gog and Magog, and landslides in three places, one in the east, one in the west, and one in Arabia, at the end of which fire would burn forth from Yemen, driving people to the place of their assembly, were among the ten signs he mentioned. (Muslim)
In Islam, there are ten phases to the day of judgement, each of which depicts the event categorically:
Imam Mehdi Arriving 1) Arrival of Imam Mahdi
Following Imam Mehdi’s entrance, the Prophet (Saw) declared, “One person will appear before the end of the world.” Both his and my names will be the same, as will those of his father. The world will be full of tyranny and injustice before to his coming, but justice will prevail when he arrives. An angel would appear from the cloud above his head and say, “This is Mehdi, listen to what he says.”
He is going to take on many of the enemies of Islam and try to make the international legal system better. There will be a great lot of injustice, transgressions, murders of Muslims, and the system of good actions will be destroyed by the evildoers prior to his arrival.
2) Dajjal Will Arrive Most people are informed that the most obvious and well-known sign is the advent of Dajjal. He’ll claim to be God when he gets there. A heretic is someone who places their confidence in him. If information about him is misguiding people, why would they believe him? This is the job of the Fitnah of Dajjal, forcing the population’s thinking to be fixed so that they will inevitably accept the idea that he is God (God forbid). Dajjal is going to be able to control the sky to rain and the earth to sprout plants. These are deceptive signs, but they will make people think he is God.
3) The Descent of Jesus According to Islamic belief, Prophet Jesus will descend at the time Dajjal shows up and declares himself to be God. He would then attack and murder Dajjal. In addition, he will bring Muslims to Tur Mountain, destroy the cross, and free them from the Majooj and Yajooj. The Jews were supposed to kill the Prophet, but Allah raised him up and preserved him. When he gets there, everyone who has been buying into falsehoods and misconceptions will be taken aback.
4) Yajooj And Majooj’s emergence There are multiple references to Yajooj and Majooj’s rise to prominence. A wall encloses them. There is a legend about them that states that during Hazrat Ibrahim’s (a.s.) reign, there lived a just King by the name of Zulqarnain. People asked him to keep them safe from the Gog and Magog tribes, two deadly tribes they had heard about. Zulqarnain consequently built an iron wall that would remain impenetrable till the end of time. They will therefore be able to break past the barrier and chase the populace come the end of time. To relieve humanity from its fury and danger, Hazrat Isa will arrive on Earth
5) Smoke will appear as a sign of the Day of Judgment. The Quran states, “Wait for the day when smoke appears from the sky.” According to Hadith, “the smoke will come from the sky and blanket the entire planet for 40 days.” It is said that although smoke will chill Christians, it will chastise unbelievers. There are numerous theories regarding what smoking will be like in the future. The most frequent possibilities are an atomic explosion or environmental contamination. In any event, the result will serve as one of the markers for the Day of Judgement in Islam.
6) The Coming Of The Beast As stated in the Quran, “And when the word of torture is fulfilled against them, we shall bring out from the Earth a beast for them, to speak to them, because mankind did not accept with conviction in Our signs,” Allah verifies the arrival of the beast in Islam. (An-Naml: 82) It is said that the beast is carrying Mousa’s handstick for believers, and that if they are sincere believers, light would radiate from their faces. For the unbelievers, he will wield the Seal of Suleman; if it comes into contact with them, their countenance will turn gloomy, denoting their degree of faith.
7) The Sun Rise from the West One of the primary indicators of Qayamah, or the Day of Judgement in Islam, is the rising of the Sun from its setting position in the West. “The Hour will not come until the Sun has risen from the West, and when it rises and people see it, they will all believe,” but additionally, “that will be the time when it will do no good to a person who has not believed before, nor earned good (by doing deeds of righteousness through his faith),” according to Abu Hurayrah, a contemporary of the Prophet (saw). (As stated by Muslim and Al-Bukhari, 11/352 and 2/194)
There are numerous ways to read the hadith and the time indication. There are others who hold the belief that anything that Allah has predetermined cannot be changed. Some people think that the Sun rising in the West signifies the upending of the global system.
8) Landslides There will be three major landslides in Islam: one in the Arabian Peninsula, one in the East, and one in the West. The Prophet (saw) stated that the signs won’t appear until these regions have attained the highest concentrations of immorality and bad behaviour. Some people think that earthquakes, not landslides, will be the cause of the landslides. The most common belief is that these locations would submerge due to a natural disaster, killing the local population.
9) The Fire Will Begin The eruption of fire from the direction of Yemen, from the bottom of ‘Aden, from the Sea of Hadramawt’ is another key sign of the day of judgement. The Prophet (Saw) was heard saying, “The last of them will be a fire that will come from Yemen, and will force the people to the area of their assembly,” according to Hudhayfah ibn Usayd. (Source: Muslim, 18/27)
10) The Kaabah Will Be Destroyed The Prophet (SAW) said, “Dhu’l-Suwayqatayn from Abyssinia will ruin the Ka’ba and seize its treasure and kiswah,” according to Abdullah Ibn “Amr.” I feel as if I can see him now; he’s balding and his wrists are distorted. With his spade and pich-axe, he will attack the Ka’ba. Allah will take the Quran and the virtuous people from the Earth to shield them from the Last Hour.
However, regular supplications and prayers are very necessary and can prevent one from taking actions that will ultimately be harmful to them. In addition to these major signs, there are other smaller or more subtle signs of the Day of Judgement in Islam, and numerous theories have been formed based on these signs to confirm their accuracy. Thanks For Reading Till here, I would really recommend joining Online Islamic Institute, It is one of the most affordable institutes while providing the quality of an expensive course, Over 150 Students, from kids to elderly have joined from the past 4 years, And just letting you know that, you will get up-to 14 days free demo, depending on the courses, so if you are interested, Register now

Hususi mahkeme hakimi Abual Hasnat Muhammad Zulqarnain'i taşıyan vasıta konvoyu, 23 Ekim 2023'te Rawalpindi'de hapisteki eski Pakistan başbakanı Imran Khan'ın duruşması için Adiala Hapishanesine geldi. — AFPİSLAMABAD: Hususi mahkeme hakimi Abual Hasnat Zulqarnain Çarşamba günü yapmış olduğu açıklamada, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Başkanı İmran Khan'ın, ikili arasındaki son görüşmeden sonrasında bir saat devam eden konuşmanın peşinden kendisine hapishanede güvende hissettiğini söylediğini söylemiş oldu.Hakim, Khan'ın avukatı ve partinin hukuk işlerinden görevli sözcüsü Naeem Haider Panjotha'ya cevap vererek, "PTI başkanıyla Attock hapishanesinde bir saat konuştum. Hapishanede kendini güvende hissettiğini söylemiş oldu" dedi.Yargıç Zulqarnain ek olarak Panjotha'ya Khan'a yukarıda bahsedilen konuşmayı sormasını söylemiş oldu ve güvenliğine ilişkin ifadenin hapishane müdürüne de gösterileceğini ekledi.Hakimin sözleri, Panjotha'nın PTI avukatlarının parti başkanıyla görüşmesine izin isteyen bir dilekçe sunmuş olduğu mahkeme salonunda geldi.Davayı 2023 Resmi Sırlar Yasası uyarınca kurulan hususi mahkemede denetleyen Yargıç Zulqarnain, Khan'ın avukatının dilekçesini onayladı ve hapishane müdürüne görüşmelerini sağlaması için yönerge verdi.'Avukatların hapishanede PTI başkanıyla görüşmesine izin verilmiyor' Daha ilkin Panjotha mahkemeden savunmasını kabul etmesini istediğinde şu şekilde demişti: "Emirleriniz yerine getirilmiyor, avukatların PTI başkanıyla hapishanede görüşmesine izin verilmiyor." Khan'ın avukatına cevap veren hakim, cezaevinde cezaevi kılavuzuna nazaran yürütülen yönetimsel işlerin bulunduğunu söylemiş oldu.Panjotha hakime hapishane müdürünün emirlerine uyacağını söylemiş oldu.Yargıç, "Eğer PTI başkanıyla daha çok avukatın görüşmesi var ise, o süre konuların dikkate alınması gerekir" şeklinde cevap verdi.Panjotha ek olarak gizyazı davasının gizli saklı bir halde yürütüldüğünden, gazetecilerin bile haber yapmasına izin verilmediğinden suç duyurusunda bulundu."Gizyazı davası Resmi Sırlar Kanunu kapsamında. Biz bunu yapmadık. [the law]1923 yılına ilişik" dedi yargıç.PTI avukatı, "Gazetecilerin olmasa da en azından avukatın hapishanedeki duruşmaya katılmasına müsaade edilmeli" diye ısrar etti.Hakim, gazetecilerin saygı duyulan bulunduğunu ve davayı hapiste takip etmeleriyle ilgili hiçbir problemi olmadığını söylemiş oldu. Panjotha, "Adiala hapishanesindeki mahkeme salonu fazlaca minik" dedi.Hakim avukata, Khan'ın hücresinin duvarını aslına bakarsanız yıktırdığını ve hücrenin tamamının yıkılmasını isteyip istemediklerini söylemiş oldu.PTI avukatı, hükümetin Khan'ı yargı kompleksinde sunmak için bahaneler ürettiğini söylemiş oldu. Hapishane müfettişinin PTI şefinin hayatına yönelik bir tehditten bahsettiğini de sözlerine ekledi.Hakim, "PTI başkanı mühim bir kişiliktir ve onun yaşamı korunmalıdır" dedi. Panjotha, Khan'ın güvence almadığından ve davanın hâlâ yüksek mahkemede beklediğinden suç duyurusunda bulundu. "Navaz Şerif'in tam güvenliğini sağladılar.Avukat, PTI şefinin güvenliğini kendi başına sağlayacağını söyleyerek, yönetimin bu konudaki sorumluluğunu yerine getirmediğinden yakındı.Hakim, yasaya nazaran görevden alınan başbakanın yaşamının korunması icap ettiğini söylemiş oldu.Hakim, Khan'ın yaşamının korunmasıyla davanın şu ana kadar oldukça sorunsuz ilerlediğini belirtti.Hem Khan hem de partisinin Genel Başkan Yardımcısı Şah Mahmood Kureyşi'nin 23 Ekim'de hususi mahkeme tarafınca suçlandığını belirtmek gerekir.Her iki PTI lideri de iddianameyi durdurmak için CrPC 265-D kapsamında bir dilekçe sunduktan sonrasında suçlandı. Hakim, dilekçeleri reddederken, duruşmanın iddianame için belirlendiğini belirterek, duruşmaya devam etti.Suçlamalar çerçevelendikten sonrasında, iddia makamının delilleri kaydedilir ve dava duruşması adım atar. Ondan sonra sanıkların ifadeleri ve ifadeleri mahkeme tarafınca kayda geçiriliyor.Mahkeme, usul gereği tanıklara 27 Ekim'de duruşmaya çıkmaları yönünde tebligat göndererek duruşmayı o tarihe erteledi.Kaynaklara nazaran, Kureyşi ve Han suçlamaları kabul etmedi.Khan ve Kureyşi parmaklıklar ardında Bu senenin ağustos ayında, Khan ve Kureshi, FIA'nın söz mevzusu yasanın 5. Maddesini devreye sokmasının peşinden, 1923 Resmi Sırlar Yasası uyarınca gizyazı davasında kayıt altına alınmıştı. Diplomatik telgrafın İmran'ın elinde kaybolduğu bildirildi. Eski iktidar partisine nazaran, kablo ABD'nin PTI hükümetini devirme tehdidini içeriyordu.Khan ve Kureşi şu anda gizyazı davasında adli tutukluluk sebebiyle Adiala hapishanesinde bulunuyor.Khan, 5 Ağustos 2023'te Toshakhana davasında üç yıl hapis cezasına çarptırıldıktan sonrasında gözaltına alındı. Başlangıçta Attock hapishanesinde tutuldu sadece hemen sonra Adiala hapishanesine nakledildi.Burada IHC'nin Toshakhana davasında PTI başkanına verilen cezayı 29 Ağustos'ta ertelediğini belirtmekte yarar var.
