'''Jubair al Hakim''' is one of the nine [[Al Mualim]] orders [[Altaïr]] to assassinate. He is found in the middle district of [[Damascus]].

==Description==
Also known as the head of The Illuminated, Jubair Al Hakim is the Chief Scholar of Damascus. However, his view of literature seems to have become somewhat skewed. Rather than seeking knowledge, The Illuminated hunt down and burn all sources of written knowledge within Damascus, believing that such documents are the source of evils such as the war between the Saracens and the Crusaders.

Jubair al Hakim has disdain for the works of many writers such as Plato and Socrates. He is a ruthless man, with little tolerance towards any who oppose him. He believes that the illness of learning must be eliminated, because it simply fixes people, preventing them from finding their true calling.

==Death==
Jubair was publicly assassinated by Altair while conducting a book burning in a courtyard near the Madrasah Al-Kallasah. Altair had to track down the real Jubair between dozens of followers wearing the same uniform before finally killed him. Jubair was the third target to die in Damascus, and the eighth overall.

==Final Words==
'''Jubair:''' ''Why!? Why have you done this?!''

'''Altaïr:''' ''Men must be free to do what they believe. It is not our right to punish one for thinking what they do, no matter how much we disagree!''

'''Jubair:''' ''Then what?''

'''Altaïr:''' ''You of all people should know the answer. Educate them, teach them right from wrong. It must be knowledge that frees them, not force''.

'''Jubair:''' ''They do not learn, fixed in their ways as they are. You are naive to think otherwise. It's an illness, for which there is but one cure''.

'''Altaïr:''' ''You're wrong, and that is why you must be put to rest''.

'''Jubair:''' ''Am I not unlike those precious books you seek to save? A source of knowledge with which you disagree. Yet you are rather quick to steal my life''.

'''Altaïr:''' ''A small sacrifice to save many. It is necessary''.

'''Jubair:''' ''Is it not ancient scrolls that inspire the Crusaders, that fill Saladin and his men with a sense of righteous fury? Their texts endanger others, bring death in their wake. I too was making a small sacrifice. It matters little now: your deed is done...and so am I''.

==Trivia==
*Jubair al Hakim is probably inspired from the Arab-Spanish geographer, traveler, and poet [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ibn_Jubayr Ibn Jubayr] (1145 - 1217) (Arabic: ابن جبير)] (according to wikipedia he is)
*Like [[Talal]] and [[Sibrand]], he can be also stopped by [[vigilantes]]

One of the nine people [[Al Mualim]] orders [[Altaïr]] to publicly assassinate. He dwells in the poor district of the city of Jerusalem.

==Description==

'''Majd Addin''' is Ṣalāḥ ad-Dīn's Regent of Jerusalem, and demands that his citizens follow the law - '''his''' law. He issues many edicts regarding how people should conduct themselves, and anyone perceived to be breaking these laws - or as a direct threat to either the city or Majd Addin himself - is dealt with in a public "trial", where they are either framed or have their so-called "crimes" exaggerated to the point that the crowd demands their deaths - which Majd Addin is only too happy to deliver personally.

Majd Addin is more than happy to admit that he enjoys controlling and taking the lives of others. He arbitrates and controls the citizens of Jerusalem through acts of strong fear and intimidation.... All the more reason why a feather was issued on his head.

==Death==

Majd Addin was publicly assassinated by the silent assassin Altaïr. The assassin claimed his life during one of his public executions (as Majd Addin proceeded with lecturing the crowd feeding his killer ego).  In his dying moments, he gave Altaïr explanations and reasons for his evil deeds, commenting that while he joined the Templars to help them take control of Jerusalem, in reality, he simply wanted the power and fear such a position granted.

==Final Words==

'''Altaïr:''' ''Your work here is finished''.

'''Majd:''' ''No! No! It had only just begun!''

'''Altaïr:''' ''Tell me, what's your part in all this? Do you intend to defend yourself as the others have, and explain away your evil deeds?''

'''Majd:''' ''The Brotherhood wanted the city: I wanted power. There was... an opportunity''.

'''Altaïr:''' ''An opportunity to murder innocents!''

'''Majd:''' ''Not so innocent! Dissident voices cut deep as steel. They disrupt order. In this, I do agree with the Brotherhood.''

'''Altaïr:''' ''You'd kill people simply for believing differently from you?''

'''Majd:''' ''Of course not! I killed them because I could! Because it was fun! Do you know what it feels like to determine another man's fate? And did you see the way the people cheered? The way they feared me? I was like a god! You'd have done the same if you could! Such power!''

'''Altaïr:''' ''Once perhaps, but then I learned what becomes of those who lift themselves above others.''

'''Majd:''' ''And what is that?''

'''Altaïr:''' ''Here, let me show you! ''(stabs Majd in the neck with the [[Hidden Blade]])

==Trivia==
[[File:Maj deat.jpg|thumb|250px|Majd Addin is executed]]

*Majd Addin (Glory of the Faith) may be very loosely based on a man named [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baha_ad-Din_ibn_Shaddad Bahā' ad-Dīn ibn Shaddād] (splendor of the faith), who was close to '''Ṣalāḥ ad-Dīn Yūsuf ibn Ayyūb''' ('''Saladin''') and wrote a biography of the great Saracen military leader and sultan. Bahā' ad-Dīn was a jurist and a scholar. Ṣalāḥ ad-Dīn liked his writings so much that he befriended the man and made him the judge of his armies. Bahā' ad-Dīn did not ever proclaim himself the Regent of Jerusalem, however.
*In one of Altaïr's investigations, it is revealed that Majd Addin was once the scribe of the ''emir''. Ṣalāḥ ad-Dīn is the Emir or Sultan at this time. Malik tells Altaïr that Majd Addin has "declared himself Regent in Ṣalāḥ ad-Dīn's absence". However, when listening to the men during one of his eavesdropping investigations (the one man is the father of one of those to be executed), it becomes clear that ''the people are under the impression'' that Ṣalāḥ ad-Dīn has appointed Majd Addin as Regent.
*Majd Addin is the only target who needs two stabs of the hidden blade to die, one when you kill him in the gameplay and another in the animus scene.
*If you let the other Assassin get executed, you slowly lose your sync bars until you die.
*Majd Addin is one of the only two targets that you stab with the Hidden Blade in the animus scene in the Assassin's Creed Universe. The other target being [[Checco Orsi]], in Assassin's Creed II.
*Majd Addin is the only one of Altaïr's main [[Assassination Targets]] that doesn't show any remorse or any belief that their actions were in service of the greater good.
