Chapter 308 - A Point Of View Of A Muslim Nobleman

    Yaasir al-Zakaria, who was sleeping, woke up when the door to his room was knocked.


    "Mr. Yaasir, it is six in the morning. As you requested, it is not dawn yet. I will leave the hot water outside the door."


    Yaasir opened his eyes and got up from his bed to go to the door where he once opened it. He took an iron pot that had hot watered.


    After this, he returned to his room because he had to wash his body doing Wudu, a purification ritual that he had to perform before prayer.


    To begin with, he felt the Niyyah in his heart and said.


    <em>''Bismih Hirrahman Nirraheem''1</em>


    After this, he began to wash his hands with water, starting with his hands up to his wrists. This he did three times.


    At the end, he rinsed his mouth three times, and then inhaled the water using his nose before expelling it using his left hand. This process was also done three times.


    Later, he washed his face from his forehead to his chin and then he did it to his ears. This process was done three times.


    Starting from his right arm, he began to wash his arm to the elbow, doing this process three times when he finished. He did the same with his left arm.


    Later, with the water in his hands, he moistened from his forehead to the nape of his neck.


    When he finished, he used his wet fingers to clean the outside and inside of his ears.


    To finish washing his head, he washed his feet up to the ankles, starting with his right foot.


    When he was clean, he said to finish.


    <em>"Ashadu an h hah ill''Ahu wahda h sharikah, Wa ashadu ana Muhammadan '' ab duhu wa rasul"1</em>


    After this, he changed his clothes because the prayer had to be done with a garment that covered his aura from the neck to the ankles.


    Having everything ready, he ced a Persian carpet on the ground and, using thepass that Einar gave him yesterday; he positioned himself where Ma was.


    He raised his hands to the height of his head and recited "Ahu Akbar."


    He began the process of his morning prayer.


    When he finished, he got up and changed his clothes because he had to have breakfast with the King of the ind.


    For Yaasir, Einar was interesting, because from the beginning he knew how tomunicate with him in Arabic, and not only that.


    But he prepared a special room for him that met his requirements, not to mention that thepass he gave him would help him a lot in his prayer.


    When he left his room in the old great hall, he walked towards the exit door as a warrior should be waiting for him.


    Upon reaching the gate, Peder greeted the Muslim nobleman and asked him to apany him to the pce.


    Yaasir, who was walking, looked at all the activity that was in the city of Asgard. He was quite surprised because it was somethingpletely different from anything he had seen.


    In the Christian kingdoms, the poptions were sad, and in their faces he could see sadness. In the kingdom of Irnd, the Nordics were dirty and had a problem with alcohol.


    But in this ce, things werepletely different. The ves and citizens were happy.


    Not only that, on the way he could see many children walking with backpacks, so he looked at Peder.


    "These children seem to have ve parents, but where do they go so happy?"


    Peder pointed to the orphanage "In the Nordic nation, child very is forbidden, any child born to ves is a full citizen.


    So they have toply with the obligations of the constitution, thew book that governs our society.


    The constitution exins that all children must attend school to receive an education regardless of gender.


    In school they are taught science and some subjects like sewing or self defense.


    All children also learn to write and speak Latin and Nordic.


    Well, they are the two principalnguages ??of our nation, in their backpacks are their textbooks. "


    Yaasir was surprised by the word book, so he looked at Peder curiously "Can I see any of those books that children use?"


    Peder nodded and walked over to one of the children who was going to school.


    "Little boy, could you lend me your textbook in a moment I''ll give it back to you."


    The boy nodded with his small head and, opening his cloth backpack, he took out a book that had written in Latin <em>''Pro haedos math''1</em>


    With great care, he handed the book to Yaasir, who upon opening it was surprised to see Arabic numerals in the book, but that''s not all.


    The Latin text was neatly written as if the scribe who made it was a true teacher.


    After looking through the book for a few minutes, he sigh and returns the book to Peder "This book is fantastic, but I want to know if I understood correctly.


    All children receive books like the one you showed mepletely free to study at school. "


    Peder nodded with a smile on his face "It is one of the benefits of the constitution, it is guaranteed that any child has books at his disposal.


    I think it''s a good move my father did. "


    Yaasir raised his eyebrow "Is King Einar your father?"


    Peder smiled "He is my stepfather because my fiancee is Philippa, the daughter of Kassia, the wife of King Einar.


    I have to admit that I enjoy being part of the royal family, although it is a bit strange I think that our family will not have problems in the future.


    But let''s not waste the time they are waiting for us to have breakfast. "


    When they reached the elevator to go up to the pce, Yaasir was surprised by the strange apparatus that seemed to use counterweights to get up and down.


    When they reached the top, Einar was already waiting for them.


    <em>"Assmu aleykum es rahtmaturuh wa barakatu"</em>


    Yaasir, upon hearing the blessing, responded respectfully, "<em>Wa aleykum assm wa rahtmaturuh wa barakatu.</em>


    I see that you are a fairly knowledgeable in Arabic, king Einar, but I would like to know where you learned all your knowledge.


    Of course, if my question offends you, I offer an apology in advance. "


    Einar shook his head "Not at all. I learned Arabic because of a citizen of our kingdom named Ashraf.


    You will be able to know him in the time you stay in the city. As a noble guest, you can stay as long as you want. "


    Yaasir looked at Einar doubtfully "I see you are eager to make a deal with the emirate of Córdoba?"


    Einar nodded and pointed toward the city that was building below them.


    "I am a king who seeks the welfare of his people and we have amon enemy.


    The Frank empire must stay away from the Hispanic penins and our area of ??influence.


    Furthermore, I am willing to buy all the millions of Christian ves in Muslimnds.


    All that poption is a danger for you, but for me, it is workforce to be able to build my empire. "


    Yaasir, who was walking, stroked his chin "You are an interesting king and I see that you have a very broad vision.


    But I think it could help to talk to the Emir of Córdoba, to help fulfill your dreams of being able to buy ves.


    My family has a special deal with the Umayyad family, so we can always have a business rtionship and it could also help create a rtionship with the emirate to deal with the Franco empire. "


    Einar showed an evil smile "If you can help me with that, I could sign a treaty to help the emirate eliminate the threat from the kingdom of Asturias.


    Of course, it will have to be after I conquer the British Isles. We could also sign a border treaty to ensure that none of us entered someone else''s flu sphere. "


    Yaasir was surprised by Einar''s response "It seems that you are a person who has no prejudice against Muslims and you are willing to help us."


    Einar turned his head "I am a man who does not believe in eternal enemies. I only believe insting alliances, and the emirate of Córdoba will be a great ally.


    We are far enough apart not to intervene from each other, and we have amon enemy.


    Besides, I am not going to dedicate strength to conquer the horrible European continent. That ce is an area of ??chaos that does not interest me.


    But I think we have arrived. "


    Yaasir was very ttered to see that there were fish and Arabic bread on the table to eat.


    "I hope you like it. At dawn I went fishing to bring this fish, I also prepared them personally.


    They are made with olive oil, so they shouldn''t be a problem for you. "


    Yaasir made a small bow "Thank you very much for your hospitality. I believe that of all my hosts you are the first who treats me as a true noble respecting my beliefs."


    Einar pointed to the dining roomvatory "As a king who knows Sunni traditions, it would be disrespectful if I treated you rudely.


    But let''s wash our hands before eating our food, don''t worry, my family cleaned their hands and they will eat only using their right hand.


    We will also give you time so that you can thank for the food before


    and after eating."


    Yaasir nodded and washed his hands with soap. After that, he sat at the table and said to himself,<em> ''Bismih''</em>


    After this, everyone began to eat using the Arab bread as cutlery. All of Einar''s family knew how to eat that way because the torti had be an essential food at the table. I dere that none has the right to be worshiped except God alone withoutpanions, and I dere that Muhammad is His ve and messengermath for kidsIn the Name of God, the Most Charitable, the Most Merciful
