Introduction

Lord Ibrahim ibn Musa bin Sulayman, al-Rashid currently lives in the Canton of Whyt Wey in the Crown Province of Ostgardr. Most of his partipation in the SCA has centered arround A&S related activities, including teaching. He views himself as primarily a sewist/tailor, though his most involved A&S research to date has been related to nalbinding. Ibrahim has also "dabbled" with numerous other fiber arts, cooking, historical medicine, and historical fencing.

Persona

Ibrahim is a resident of 14th century al-Andalus (the era of Muslim rule in Spain). However, due to his enthusiasm for historical Spanish rapier fencing (also called la Verdadera Destreza) he occationally slides a bit forward in time to the Siglo de Oro (or golden century), the later period of the Spanish Renaissance encompassing a bit more than 100 years of the late 16th and early 17th centuries.

Offices & Positions

  • Southern Regional A&S Deputy, 2020 -
  • Member of the Pennsic A&S Champions Team (alternate), 2018.
  • Exchequer for the Canton of Whyt Whey, 2016 -
  • Minister of Arts & Sciences for the Canton of Brokenbridge, 2011-2014
  • Served twice as Ostgardr's Provincial A&S champion.

  • Participated in the Kingdom MoAS office's Consultation Table initative, providing advice to artisans about A&S projects.
  • Judged at many A&S events, most recently including "Crown's A&S Champions", and "Artifacts of a Life" in 2019
  • Taught A&S classes at numerious local events and baronial A&S nights, including teaching at every Pennsic he attended since at least 2010. Some of the classes he has taught include:
    • Overview of medieval fashion

    • Pattern drafting (modern methods)
    • Turban variations in al-Andalus

Most recently I have had a research paper published in the East Kingdom Gazette's.

In case of court

While not hugely opposed to suprises, Ibrahim would prefer some advanced notice if he is to be called into court.
