Current Features (Too many to list completely):

BECOME A HAFIZ:
- Hire a Quranic expert and memorize the holy book with a new personal scheme you can do with your court tutor to become a Hafiz!

ASSASSINS:
- Added Hashashin as a Persian technology, which when researched, enables the recruitment of Hashashin as men-at-arms.

SELJUK INVASION OF ANATOLIA/SULTANATE OF RUM:
- You can now form the Sultanate of Rum! The AI is also now able to form it consistently!
- The Seljuks can now invade Anatolia right after their invasion of Armenia. This was achieved through combining this mod with grandembassy and Butshikan's Seljuk Anatolian Invasion mod!

IMAMS OF IBADISM:
- Added the Ibadi Imams in Oman and North Africa with a custom Wahbiya faith.

NEW EVENTS:
- Declare yourself the Mahdi. (Now rulers of a certain "eccentric" variety will get an event allowing them to claim themselves as the Mahdi, launching a unique story.)

BERBER TRIBES OF OLD:
Featuring 4 new inheritable traits that represent the Miknasa, Sanhaja, Masmuda and Zenata Berber lineages that many in-game characters and dynasties claim descent from.

SAYYID/QURAISHI DISTINCTION:
- Sayyids and Qurayshis are now distinct traits that operate based on being descended from the Quraysh tribe, or being descended directly from the Prophet.

QOL CHANGES:
- Shia sects now have the Zulfiqar icon, with many custom icons of the same sort to create custom faiths with.
- Numerous Islamic dynasties have received updated coat of arms, utilizing Arabic calligraphy.
- The Seljuk invasion is now given proper men-at-arms instead of just levies. This makes the Sultanate of Rum more commonly appearing in-game.
- New icons for Sayyid/Qurayshi traits.
- Alevi/Alawis have custom art instead of the empty crescent.
- Quranists have a custom Quran icon!
- Clan government can now raid!
