    * In [[Hokuto no Ken (PlayStation)|Hokuto no Ken for Playstation]], all of Raoh's royal guards look and fight like Qasim and Zarqa. This is in both gameplay and in cutscenes such as the victims of the [[Hokuto Ujo Hagan Ken]] looking like the two.

    * It is likely that Qasim was based on [[w:c:indianajones:Chief Guard|Chief Guard]] from the movie ''[[w:c:indianajones:Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom|Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom]]''.
    * In the TV series, it is [[Rei]] who tells Qasim that he is "already dead" after Kenshiro has finished with him.
    * Avu from the Konami fighting game [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martial_Champion Martial Champion] appears to be based off a combination of Qasim and [[Zarqa]].

    Manga & TV Series[edit | edit source]

    In order to repay their debt to Kenshiro for liberating Cassandra, Raiga and Fuga rush ahead to release Toki. However, they are caught in a booby trap set by Zarqa and Qasim, who torture the two rebels to death but are unable to stop them creating a path for Kenshiro.

    While Zarqa is fighting Kenshiro, Qasim hurries to what appears to be Toki's cell and threatens to kill him. However, it turns out to be a prisoner decoy in disguise who panics and exposes the ruse, which Qasim kills him for. Kenshiro then proceeds to make Qasim involuntarily reveal Toki's real location before disposing of him.

    In the anime, it is an original character, Burg, who kills Raiga and Fuga, instead of Zarqa and Qasim.
