HP Rewrite: Possible Muslim Character.

HP Rewrite: Possible Muslim Character.

I just found out that Muslims believe that every kind of magic is Black Magic (correct me if I’m wrong). Now I’m a bit afraid of writing them into my Harry Potter rewrite, since I wanted to represent them but if it’s going to offend my Muslim readers, then I think I probably shouldn’t. Still, here’s what I had in plan for them (there was supposed to be two characters who were Muslim).

They’re best friends whose family are also very close. They’re supposed to be muggleborn witches. One of them (Zaneerah) is blind, and the other one (Saida) doesn’t have any disability. So once they get to Hogwarts and they realized just how inaccessible the school is for students with any kind of disabilities, the two muslim best friends work together to find magical ways to make life easier.

After their project is done and over with and Zaneerah begins excelling in her classes with her new spells and such, Saida finds that her passions lay in helping those with certain disabilities. She spends the rest of her school years working closely with other disabled students to find something that helps them without actually erasing their disability (if they don’t wish to).

I’m disabled, so I thought this would be a cool idea. But if it’ll offend my Muslim readers then perhaps I shouldn’t proceed? What do you think? Because I do believe that there must be magical people all over the country regardless of where they’re from or their religion, should these girls struggle with their newfound identity while at school? Maybe have some issues with their families? They would have to attend Hogwarts or some magical school because otherwise they’d become Obscurials.

I saw a post where someone posted that if the character is born with magic, then it might be viewed as a gift from Allah, but I want to make sure it’s right.

Again, if it’s too complicated, or would still offend my Muslim readers, just tell me the word and I’ll remove this idea and replace it with something else.

Headcannon: When Severus and Lily were kids, they listened to all sorts of muggle music. Mr. and Mrs. Evans had an impressive collection of records that Lily and Sev would spend hours upon hours listening though. Through the years of his friendship with Lily, Severus was gifted records and continued listening to muggle music through the ‘80s and even into the ‘90s.

Harry Potter Rewrite: Google Form.

Hello my loves,

I’ve been a bit stuck while writing (nothing to worry about, I just have the attention span of a five-year-old and cannot focus for the life of me), but I still wanted to hear more about what you guys want to see! So, I found a much more organized way of doing that!

Google Form!

Honestly, I’m really excited to see what you guys want or don’t want. Who knows, maybe something will strike me and help me keep writing! Remember, I accept headcanons of every character that isn’t Dumbledore. Literally tell me about anyone else except him.

Asks and PMs are always welcomed, too!

I know most people who write for HP don't like Peter Pettigrew but with your rewrite, could you not sideline him as the 'just there' Marauder? He was just as capable as them in Transfiguration and Potions. I may not like him but he wasn't the guy to just throw his friends under the bus at 11 years old for a corn chip like how some people write him as

I thought the same thing, actually. It’s why you’re going to see a lot of Peter in the rewrite. You’ll get to know about his home life, his hobbies, favorite colors, the songs he likes the same way you’ll know about the rest. He’s flawed, yes, but he also has a lot of good traits.

Thank you for the request, though, Anon. I like how you think.

Sirius Black Headcanons.

FAMILY.

Sirius Black is half French and half Japanese.

Walburga Black was the one born and raised in Japan. Orion, is the one that’s French.

The Japanese side of the family is suppressed, to be forgotten, as demanded by the Blacks.

Sirius only knows a little bit of Japanese thanks to the family outcast, Uncle Alphard. Regulus also learned, but he knows a little less.

Sirius and Regulus used to be the same reckless, bold child. They were always standing up for each other no matter the consequences. It was them against the world.

Sirius and Regulus were secretly close up until the winter holidays of Sirius’ fifth year. They were supposed to run away together, but Orion had held Regulus back. Sirius thought that his younger brother had simply changed his mind.

SCHOOL/FRIENDS/ENEMIES.

During his first year, Sirius refused to be associated with his own House. He didn’t want to further disappoint his parents, not to mention that a part of him believed the Black values.

It wasn’t until his second year that Sirius realized that perhaps his family was wrong.

By third year, slurs were eliminated completely from his mind and vocabulary and he was working hard to fully let go of everything he had grown up in.

DISABILITY + MENTAL HEALTH.

Sirius is completely deaf on his left ear. His family was embarrassed to have a son with a disability, so they instilled in his mind that it was something to hide.

During the first few years at Hogwarts, Sirius would exhaust himself while trying to read lips without people noticing.

It was frustrating and humiliating whenever he missed something and he was forced to asked the person to repeat what they’d said.

Even after his friends found out about it, Sirius refused to acknowledge it. He would not be known as a pitiful, disabled kid.

Classes were difficult, especially if the professor had the tendency of walking around the classroom. Sirius would sometimes copy the notes off of James without saying anything.

James always noticed but let him do it.

Later on, a fully deaf kid arrived at Hogwarts and managed to teach Sirius to somewhat embrace his deafness. (Kinda debating whether this should be a part of my fic or not, please let me know what you think).

Sirius also suffered from childhood PTSD, especially after he ran away.

He would wake up in the middle of the night in pure terror, but he didn’t scream because in his mind, he’s still at Grimmauld Place, and they would have his head if he screamed so late at night. He was all trembles and whimpers and sweat and tears.

Each of the Marauders would take turns consoling him.

When Sirius started dating Remus, it was always him who would come. Eventually, they would just cuddle up together on the same bed.

REASONS TO STAY: BOOK ONE.

SOMEONE TO STAY; Epilogue.

Part of my rewrite series, starting from the Marauders’ Era. More is coming soon.

❛ There’s a dream that used to hold Remus Lupin hostage during his darkest hours . . . ❜

It’s finally here! After months of announcing my work in progress, and years of fixing and outlining the Harry Potter world, I have finally posted the epilogue for what is sure to be a great journey, I hope you’ll show some love and support! Any feedback, comments, advices are welcome!

The Epilogue is very short — it’s meant to be, the rest of the chapters will go from 2,000-ish words and, if the inspiration strikes, more.

Special thanks to @fen1s for being my beta reader!
