A /tg/ chapter based on the Mujahideen and Islam in general. They're a Cursed Founding successor of the Ultramarines who follow the teachings of the Kutayib al-Muharib (Warrior's Handbook, their 'codex'). This document was handed down to them from Roboute Guilliman himself (pbuh), and it contains the words of Allah-upon-Terra exactly as transcribed by him.
Homeworld
The fortress-mosque of Al-Hembra spreads across the mountains just visible from the largest settlement on Bahremen. The sun orders the day:
Heat cracks the stone and scorches the air.
Burning wind carves out its sculpted shapes in rock and rolling sand.
The Astartes of the Mujahideen mark the passing star. Rise and set. Dawn noon and dusk.
The bells shudder the sand and the canticles to the God-Emperor drift down to the populace, the daily marker of the strange guardian angels who take their sons to the sky. Stories of the elders tell of a mighty palace with beautiful gardens and libraries and observatories, baths and tiled halls in cavernous rooms, all hidden behind fierce defenses. Their metal dragons flit about the mountain passes and wash the shepherds in their roar, strong but protective.
The Strugglers live on an isolated world in the eastern fringe. It is a desert, nearly inhospitable except to the hardy nomad tribes who wander the land or those with the technology to settle. More temperate mediterranean climates exist near bodies of water, but they are few. This is a place destined for conflict over water, mounts, prestige; clans battle and raid constantly. But it is not without its beauty. A highly refined poetic tradition exists on this world, as well as strangely geometric art and architecture (most sects of the Imperial Cult on this world despise idolatry). The harsh conditions breed strong recruits for the Brotherhoods, but they are not merely muscled goons. They have a deep spiritual and artistic connection to the God Emperor whom they serve, Allah Upon Terra, the Merciful, the Wise.
