Charter of the Muslim Brotherhood

Preamble: The Muslim Brotherhood is dedicated to protecting, preserving, and spreading the holy religion of Islam. Its constitution is the Holy Koran and its plan of action is the example of the Prophet (PBUH).

Article I: Every member nation must have Islam as its official religion.
Article II: No member nation shall enter into war with another member nation.
Article III: No member nation shall ally with a nation that is at war with another member nation.
Article IV: If a member nation is involved in a conflict with one or more other non-member nations, and the MB member nation was not the first to initiate force or was acting in response to a major valid casus belli(1), the MB shall protect the MB member nation through military means.
Article V: No member nation shall levy tariffs on trade coming from other member nations exceeding 5%.
Article VI: A nation not in attendance at the First Madina Conference may join the MB upon the approval of 50%+1 of MB nations.
Article VII: Any nation that breaks the terms of this charter will be expelled from the MB.
Article VIII: Member nations will cooperate by sharing general techniques and specific information on the subjects of espionage, counter-espionage and military research.

1. A major valid casus belli will be defined as any of the following:
Genocide, Mass Murder, Slavery, Violation of Territorial Sovereignty, Illegal Seizure of Commercial or Government Assets, Assassination, Military Blockade, Harboring Hostile Terrorist Groups

Headquarters
The Muslim Brotherhood Headquarters are located in Mecca, Paradise.

Member nations
The following nations (ordered alphabetically) signed the Charter and are therefore full members of the Muslim Brotherhood:

Abnar
Madina
Paradise
Sahndaq
The Qosh-Mahdi

OOC:
Please post a nation description that includes at the very least religious demographics that include sects(Shia/Sunni/etc) and information about the policies of your nation's government in broad strokes before applying so that current members can get some ideas about who they're voting to include or exclude.

The Abnarian delegate to the Muslim Brotherhood will be Ahmed Yassir.

OOC: What happened to Madina? He hasn't been involved in anything since his conference. If he's defunct, I might go for a land grab.

OOC: On that other forum, the great game, I believe Madina said he had no interest in continued RP here.

IC:
I vote against the membership of this Shi'ite nation into the Brotherhood. Shi'ites are heretics and should not be allowed to pollute our glorious Brotherhood's actions.

-Imam Esmaeel Al Sahaf

OOC: This isn't Sahndaq's official position, just the Imam's.

Paradise votes FOR the Crescent Coalition admission to the Muslim Brotherhood.

One more vote is needed to admit the Crescent Coalition.

With the departure of Palestine from the MB, the majority needed falls to 3 and the Crescent Coalition is fully admitted to the MB.

OOC:

Madina is still in the Middle East. Thus you will have to get his permission to try a land grab.

--Yasim Abdullahi, Palestinian spokesman

"We deeply regret Palestine's decision to withdraw from the Muslim Brotherhood. It is our opinion that Shi'ites and Sunnis can coexist peacefully in order to see the One True Religion protected and spread to the heathen masses."

Press release from Yasim Abdullahi, Palestinian spokesman:

We urge all the Shi'ites to convert to Islam, instead of pretending to be Muslims while actually perverting the beliefs of the religion. Shi'ism is the worst form of heathen beliefs, for Shi'ites know in their hearts what is right and what is wrong, yet they still purposely twist and pervert Islam. This self-deception is abominable indeed.

Did not the great liberator of Al-Quds [Jerusalem], Saladin al-Ayyubi, beloved of God, destroy the abominable Shiites for they are worse than even the idol-worshippers of India? What Islam needs today is a new Saladin, and we do not need infidels to corrupt our religion.

But we will rejoin the MB organization if it includes this in the charter:

"All members of the Muslim Brotherhood must believe Ali ibn Abi Talib was an ordinary man. Surely Ali shall be respected as a companion of Muhammad but he was neither worse nor greater than Abdallah Abu Bakr. The sons of Ali deserved nothing beyond what they earned through meritorious conduct and piety. To believe otherwise is idolatry and lies outside the pale of the Sunnah."

"The People of Al Araam are appalled by the bigotry of the Palestinians, whom we have called our brothers and held in greatest esteem. It has long been the belief of the Ayatollah and Al Araam's most esteemed Imams that at a time such as this, when kafir armies swarm across the globe, raping and pillaging, sectarian divisions must be overlooked so that the word of the Most High can be spread and it's followers protected. We are saddened to see Palestine playing into the hands of the kafir nations, who would laugh as they desecrated al-Ka'bah. We can only hope that the wayward sheep will again hear the call of the Shepard and return to the flock."

OOC:
A little more information would be great. It's a little hard to vote either way with only the post requesting admittance as a reference. A nation description thread might be a good place to start. But I fully plan on voting in favor of your nation's admittance once I learn a little more. There really aren't many factors relevant to this alliance, but the information is nice to have.
