"Your deed is done...and so am I."
―Jubair to Altaïr's blade

Jubair al Hakim is the eighth person 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 Altaïr while conducting a book burning in a courtyard near the Madrasah Al-Kallasah. Altaïr 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's life is taken.

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, traveller, and poet Ibn Jubayr (1145 - 1217) (Arabic: ابن جبير).
  • Like Talal and Sibrand, he can be also stopped by vigilantes.
