	Al Mualim, though known for being a wise and soft-spoken leader, at times showed himself to be mysterious and unpredictable.

	He revealed little about himself, and so almost nothing was known about his early life, let alone anything beyond his duty as the Master of the Assassins. By his efforts, the Order became a well-known, yet obscure faction, inspiring fear and uncertainty throughout the land, and spreading rumors that only increased the already legendary reputation of the Brotherhood.<ref name="AC" />		He revealed little about himself, and so almost nothing was known about his early life, let alone anything beyond his duty as the Master of the Assassins.

	As a scholarly man, Al Mualim placed importance on education, spending much of his time in the Masyaf fortress, studying the books of the library. He had a thorough understanding of a variety of subjects, ranging from philosophy to science. In addition to preaching the Brotherhood's goal of peace in all things, he emphasized that the Creed pushed for peace within one's self as well; on one occasion he advised Altaïr not to demonize his enemies.<ref name="AC" />		As a scholarly man, Al Mualim placed importance on education, spending much of his time in the Masyaf fortress, studying the books of the library.

	However, Al Mualim was eventually revealed to be selfish, manipulative, deceptive and hypocritical. He was himself a Templar ally and intended to use the Apple of Eden to control the minds of all humanity. To this end, he manipulated his assassins into acquiring the Apple and eliminating his former Templar allies so he could have the artifact to himself. When talking with Altaïr, he espoused views that he did not actually hold, such as that peace was to be understood and embraced rather than forced. It is unknown if he never truly held these views or he once did but subsequently renounced them for the Templar beliefs.<ref name="AC" />		However, Al Mualim was eventually revealed to be selfish, manipulative, deceptive and hypocritical.

	Despite all his actions, Al Mualim ultimately only desired peace for mankind, but he believed that the loss of free will was an acceptable price to pay for this goal. Although he may also not have believed everything he taught Altaïr, his teachings did have a profound impact on his apprentice and thus the future of the Assassins.<ref name="AC" />		Despite all his actions, Al Mualim ultimately only desired peace for mankind, but he believed that the loss of free will was an acceptable price to pay for this goal.
