The Quraysh is the leading tribe of the ancient city of Mecca, they behave more like a mafia than anything else. Their wealth, corruption, and moral bankruptcy make them the antagonists in The Sound of Seerah Audio Drama
Tribal Chief #1
Al Aas is the eldest of the chiefs, he is exceedingly haughty and dishonest. Looking for an old man voice with a lot of arrogance and sarcasm in his voice. Every sentence he says is meant to put others down

(bitterly) "You didn't hear him that day! He claimed there was only ONE god. Not 300, not even 3. ONE! And better yet, we don't even know what his god looks like. You won't sell a damn thing!"
(disgusted, fuming) He insults our traditions! Our ancestral heritage!
(sarcastic, mocking) "Angels this and angels that! Nobody can see these so called angels except Muhammad. Seems very convenient if you ask me."

Tribal Chief #2
Umayah is a corrupt businessman and merchant. He is morbidly obese and foul mouthed and owns multiple slaves that he routinely abuses. He's a real jokester but goes into fits of rage when he's upset. We're going for a mafioso character with this one, italian gangster or kingpin.

Why don't we just silence the guy huh? If it's just one man causing problems I got a herd of red camels that will make em change his mind. Pay him off!
He thinks God spoke to him? Yeesh, talk about crazy
HAHAHA, Honestly, how does a guy let his slave disobey him. Watch this. BILAL! Stop fanning me for a moment! How many gods are there? (nervously laughs) He's...he's a real kidder. But seriously, Bilal. How many gods do you have?

Tribal Chief #3
This one is the diplomat and the one with a silver tongue that knows how to manipulate the system with nice speeches and carefully crafted propaganda. He talks fast when he needs to and is very charismatic when he needs to get his point across. I was thinking of a southern Drawl for this one but feel free to experiment

Gentlemen gentlemen! Everyone calm down for a moment. Let me ask you fine men a question. Has anyone here actually tried to hear what Muhammad wants?
O my nephew, we all know your status and lineage. But I'm sorry to say you have brought forth something that is causing havoc in our city. In fact, we've never seen a man cause more trouble for his people than you! You've divided our community, shamed our gods,called our ancestors infidels, and exposed us in front of all the Arabs! And now word is getting out that there's a sorcerer amongst the Quraysh! And a soothsayer! And....other unspeakable vulgarisms! I swear by Allah we're just waiting for the pregnant lady to scream before everyone pulls out swords and finish each other off! It is a catastrophe, Muhammad. A catastrophe!
O my nephew, if this Islam affair was for money, we shall gather wealth for you and make you the richest man in Mecca! And if it is honor you want, we shall bestow nobility on you, we will not make a single decision until we consult you and get your approval. And if it is a kingdom you want, we shall crown you the king of the Quraysh. The very first in history! And if you want women, we shall line up all the maidens of Mecca for you to choose. Take ten if you want! And if there's anything else you want, we will not rest until we have provided it for you. That is what we are willing to do for you to give up this message of yours.
Character Description: Abu Jahl - The Father of Ignorance*
*Role Description:* Abu Jahl is a central antagonist in our epic historical audio series, portraying the dramatic events of ancient Mecca during the rise of Islam. This character requires a talented voice actor who can effectively convey the essence of malevolence, cruelty, and unyielding opposition to Islam. Abu Jahl is a commanding presence, a formidable foe who exudes power and ruthlessness in every word he speaks.
*Voice Type:* Deep and resonant, with a commanding presence. The voice should be able to alternate between an authoritative growl and a manipulative, venomous tone as he spreads disinformation and tries to undermine the faith of the Muslims.
*Personality:* Abu Jahl is a cruel and wicked man who epitomizes ignorance. He opposes Islam with a fanatical zeal, refusing to let go of the old pagan traditions that hold sway in Mecca. His heart is hardened, devoid of empathy or compassion, and he takes pleasure in the suffering he inflicts on those who follow Islam. He is relentless in his pursuit of power and control, stopping at nothing to crush the burgeoning faith and its followers.
*Key Traits:*
- *Malevolent:* Abu Jahl embodies evil and malevolence, and his voice should reflect this dark aspect of his character.
- *Authoritative:* His voice commands respect and authority, leaving no room for dissent or opposition.
- *Cunning:* Abu Jahl is manipulative and sly, using his words to sow discord and spread lies.
- *Unyielding:* He is stubbornly opposed to Islam and unwavering in his belief in pagan idols and traditions.
- *Powerful Presence:* Abu Jahl's voice should resonate with a sense of power and dominance, capable of instilling fear in those who dare oppose him.
(Attacking a servant) WHO PUT YOU UP TO THIS, HUH? YOU LITTLE RENEGADE! ANSWER ME!
(addressing crowd) "Men and women of Quraysh! This is clear undeniable proof of the danger Muhammad's rebellion is posing on our way of life. When even an ignoble peasant of filthy blood thinks he can stand in front of the Kaba and spew heresy against our religion, that is when you know we have a problem!"
People are following him Waleed. Slaves and servants. Everyday we hear about a new one. Just this morning Uqba's servant stood in front of the Kaba and began reciting Muhammad's incantations. Muhammad is corrupting slaves, insulting our ancestors, endangering our economy, and spreading lies! Families are getting torn apart. Imagine an Arab having a different religion than his father.
