- 📜 History of Saladin & the 3rd Crusade: A Crusade's End - Things look bleak for Saladin. Richard I had returned and the Lionheart can be seen right outside Jerusalem. Internally, his coalition is starting to fracture. There are divisions amongst his advisors and amongst his soldiers. He's certain that this is the end. But his camp isn't the only one troubled by desperate divisions. The Crusaders are beginning to see cracks in their structure as well. Who can outlast whom?

So a man not only became famous in the eyes of his allies but also in the eyes of his enemies
A man like that is extremely rare

A man all should aspire to emulate, Muslim and non muslim alike.
@@bernardoheusi6146 No,he was not the only Muslim in the Divine Comedy.The muslim prophet Muhammad was also there but,in the 8th circle of hell.
I ought to read it again then. But Saladin was the only muslim in a positive light.
"Tensions between his Turkish and Kurdish contingents are heading towards violence"
Oh boy....
Pffft I did a double take when that line was mentioned "Wait when exactly did this happen again!?"... Some things never change I guess D:
Kurds and Turks cannot be separated anymore because they have been living together for 1000 years.
Time stamp?

Better to have an honourable enemy than a dishonourable friend
words to live by
Well said 👍
One of the principles for life
I agree with you, better to have an honorable enemy then a dishonorable friend, Saladin or Salah al din was this kind of man
unless you yourself are dishonorable
imagine a kings family having to take a loan for his funeral, that tells you everything you need to know about the man
He was bad at managing his finances? Yeah, we know, and that's not a quality for a head of state, it's what caused his empire to crumble.
@@samrevlej9331 What are you talking about? The money he gave away was his OWN PERSONAL money that's why he couldnt be buried without a loan. His empire would continue for 80 years after him and only collapse because of a succession crisis cuased by the last ayyubid sultan.

Al-Adil(The Just) fit his name.

In an age of kingdoms, empire, and amassing wealth as status, Saladin denied his personal glory and wealth in favor of glorifying God and enriching his people. He was magnanimous and humble, disciplined and courageous, even in the face of ruin and decay.
Nothing has changed.
@@Cecilia-ky3uw Being "manipulative and understanding men" does not leave you with 1 gold coin. Him being generous was one of the reasons why he had a difficult time in the crusades, as said in history he just got through with great luck...if he had more ruthlessness in his rule he would have gotten through it much easier and had the other leading Muslim figures in line. Not saying that he used his magnanimous attitude almost the entire time just for charity, it's just the guy literally memorized the entire Hamasah...he is obviously a big believer in chivalry
@@Cecilia-ky3uw Odd beef, dude, but sure. It is my opinion that a leader of state who took no wealth for himself was magnanimous. Feel free to think that was just manipulation, if you must.
@@zahirkhan778 Truth.
@@Cecilia-ky3uw ofc anyone would manipulate their way but when you reach what you want you would feel empty and questioning "now what?" There religion or family or friends or chivalrous values would come to your mind and close the void.
"Respected by both friends and enemies"...this is absolutely rare.
Man, I'm a christian, but the more I read and learn about Saladin, the more I come to think he was probably the best, most humble and most wise leader of the medieval world. Truly a remarkable man.
Most likely because he was a strong believer of Islam
Being respected by your friends and Allies makes you a Great.
But being respected, Honoured and immortalised by your enemy makes you Legendary.
The Quran says "You will find the closest friends to the believers are those that say we are Christians, because they are not arrogant." You'd love the story of Umar II, rarely known in the west. He's the exception to the saying power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. Born a spoiled royal the more status he was given the more pious he became. He ruled the largest empire in history at the time and so just he became there was no one poor enough to receive charity.
It doesn’t make sense to me why Christians and Muslims would even be enemies. I’m not a religious person but the two share the same fundamental, foundational doctrines. They have very similar codes of conduct and morality. Islam and Christianity are beautiful philosophies and religions, and both have sadly been corroded in part due to the wills of power-hungry political and religious leaders, and the dogmatic tendencies of those with uncritical worldviews.
@@samh3805the most similar of people usually conflict with each other. It’s a sad true, but in the minds of both, the domination of the “lesser” will cement the legitimacy of the other
Saladin: My Brother made a Good Image of Mine and Supported me with all of his Brilliance
Richard: My Brother plotted to take my throne and even tried to kill me when I returned home 😂😂
A good brother makes the difference for real.

@@madhavireddy1792 both Richard AND Saladin lol
@@zan4336 both sides of the same coin
Truly a villain of Robin Hood.
Centuries later, Kaiser Wilhelm II even built another version of Saladin's grave out of respect for the long-dead ruler of the Middle-East.
He donated money for renovation and ordered the construction of a new dome on Salahdins tomb to pay his respect to the legendary muslim sultan. A man worthy of being respected and honoured.
Being resected by your allies makes you great.
Being respected by both your allies and enemies, makes you a Legend.

I learned about Saladin from Age of Empires an all I remember was that he was kind and honorable. So I guess the story lasted
I see you are a man of culture as Well
Series closly resembled Saladin Campaign from game
Same
"To bring crimson death to the blue-eyed enemy". I remember that quote from the game, almost twenty years ago. Age of Kings doesn't portray him EXACTLY as kind as Extra History does.
Oh yeah, "Geno-EE-SEE warships attacking!!" That was fun. Stressful, but fun.
I was the same way but with Stronghold Crusader
When you start a war expecting to find enemies but only find friends.
Maybe the real war were the friends we made along the way.

The fact that he died without enough money to be buried is so underrated about Salahuldin.
So nobody is talking about Saladin saving the Christians from his own army?
I do
Marvelous leader at that time
Tancred tried to do the same when the Christians took Jerusalem.
@@donnyannessa654 yeah but he failed to discipline his army and everyone he attempted to protect ended up getting killed

A real crusade is the Friends we make along the way. : )
Yes that and the people we kill who came for the crusade on the other side . Only good times
Why let a crusade get in the way of two good friends?
Who needs friends when you have enemies like Saladin 🤣
" his family borrowed money for his funeral" brought tears in my eyes. He never lost, he stood his victorious ground and when he died, he had nothing for himself but a legacy for ages.
Just imagine saladin Is ruling the Egypt, the most profitable Country of the middle east, where every ruler who ruled the egypt like the Pharoh/Fir'aun are Crazy Rich. But saladin does'nt even had a money for his own Funeral, he is giving all of his personal wealth for the poor. What a Great Leader
very interesting point
@kulayeb I don't think It's the case for everyone though. Take into consideration feeding the guests and all btw
His end actually feels super sad to me. The man spent all his life keeping the Muslims together, achieving great things and became a symbol for the Muslim world. Yet he became increasingly powerless and isolated in his ideology for a united Islamic state, watching in frustration as his empire crumbling apart with infighting, and ended up dying lonely and exhausted from all the deeds he had achieved.
@@Secret_Moon what are you saying dude? saladin created the most united islamic front ever after the caliphates his realm will survive all the way till the mongol invasions around 70 years after his death. before his death his empire was so united and strong. probably his only regret was the not finishing the crusaders forever
@kulayeb "I highly doubt anyone would borrow money to do that"
I suppose you're not a Muslim
what did he left behind?
orthers - he left behind 1 dinar and 36 dirhams
me - no, he left a legacy behind.
"What did he left behind?"
"Almost nothing... And everything".
Muslims say you must tread between miserliness and extravagance. You aren't taking worldly possessions beyond the grave.
Aurangzeb the Mughal ruler of the richest empire in the world too left only 300 rupees when he died. Those too were given to charity on his will. He didn't use the royal treasury for his personal expenditure, he instead made and sold cap and copies of Quran for his personal income.
@@rajbagwe3732
Absolutely right. Zinda pir.
@@rajbagwe3732 I realize I may be coming off as rude or 'anti-christian', but sadly the same cannot be said of lots of Christian/Catholic/all those other denominations and their pastors.
Saladin is easily one of my favorite historical figures alongside Cyrus the Great
Oh man, I'd love to watch a series on Cyrus!
Yeah, honestly him and Justinian are my favorites
now u mentioned about cyrus, i am happy too if extra credit can make videos about him because he was kinda better than alexander the great
@@mahsiseua Yeah, a lot of the stuff we attribute to Alexander in terms of liberty he took from Cyrus.
Cyrus = Two horned man (dhul qarnayn), who stopped gog and magog
his death and how he had given everything away split my heart in 2
Bring an ambulance, but not for me.
Fun fact : saladin in arabic means "the righteousness of the religion", and his real name is yusuf -joseph.
I thought it was Defender of the Faith, like Nur ad Din is Jewel of the Faith.
Righteous Joe Vs. Dick Lionman. Looks like a WWE match, to me.
His first name*
(I'm not sure of this but I think these names (like Salah aldin) were given upon birth so it was like his middle name (again not sure))
I'm an Arab, It is better translated as the repairer/renovator of the religion, which he actually was.
I believe they addressed that in the first episode.
Saladin, a true Leader. I wish today's leaders had half his intelligence and mercy.
Indeed, to say nothing of his generosity!
From what I see of political leaders today I would settle for one having 1/3 Saladin’s intelligence and 1/10 his generosity.
I don’t know New Zealand Prime Minister seems pretty great
We're in desparate need of someone like Salahuddin Ayyubi
@@jaansayyed8632 InchAllah!
chronic fatigue and migraine headaches. yet he led so well for so long. strong fellow!
Honestly this has been the best series I've watched on TH-cam in a long time, really captivating life and story telling
You need to see ibn batuta's series, it's even better.
Tbh most of their videos are very very good
Or... the absolutely based history.
Dovahhatty.
The narration + the animation, this channel is really good, I love it
I already knew much of Saladin's story, but I must have been emotional as I watched this video because it brought me to tears. A man like him is rare and special indeed, and it is good that we remember him.
I feel saladin is not greedy. Because he knows when he died gold or money is nothing
But a bit over the edge. As a muslim, I am educated to be generous but still have to left enough for the family in case I died. Prioritize family first, then neighbor before other people. It's sad you know that the family still need to borrow money for the funeral. The kingdom money not always the king money.
That's not new...
Just like Alexander the great, "all is equal in front of death"
In islam a true believer always thinks of his death and the afterlife and what good deeds to be done to enter heaven by god’s will, salah al din was an example of that belief.
Thank you extra history for bringing Shalahudin Al Ayyubi, my favorite historical figure. It's comforting to see neutral narration of his life that he's indeed a great and generous man for his friends and foes.
Do you mind explaining what you mean by neutral. I learned about him from video games and my history classes briefly speak about him and in both of those occasions they often praised his chivalry, intelligence and honor while mentioning that if his allies actually supported him then the third crusade would have been a complete failure. I can only imagine that the Islamic world sings praises about him in their history books and hails him as a hero but even then they are not that far from the truth.
@@frking100 I had seen bbc drama which portrays him as a miserable and impatience old man. On the other hand, my religion teacher telling an exaggerate story which portrays him as a very powerful warrior in combat with his scimitar. Ever since I watch extra history I always wait for his portrayal and "fair" narrative (sorry it shouldn't been neutral).
Little did they know Walpole was funding the crusaders
YEET
and then Bismarck had a plan. Bismarck always had a plan
@@bozoforce of course I have a plan
This is some intellectual humor
Why let a scheming prime minister get in the way of a good crusade?
I appreciate Saladin because he didn't care about money. He did all he did for something greater.
Saladin was the better strategiest
Richard was the better tactician
A perfect summary I think
Fire Emblem in a nutshell.
That’s largely fair, though Richard was nearly his equal in strategy, but he didn’t have a undies army, he had dusunified crusaders.if his men agreed to attack Egypt they probably win the crusade outright as Saladin was in poor financial shape
Strategy without tactics is the slowest route to victory. Tactics without strategy is the noise before defeat. - Sun Tzu
@@thepizzafoogle5481 Yeah reminds me to Winter war(1939-1940) where Soviets have overly complicated strategy but failed at every single tactics while Finnish have good tactics but strategically for them it's impossible to win the war, in the end Soviet got what they want but with very high cost.
I'm sure these tensions between the Kurds and the Turks will resolve themselves peacefully and not linger on into modernity.
Ah yes, about that..
My favorite quote from the late Brains4Breakfast on nation building in near east.
“Except you, Kurds.”
Im a kurd and I agree
I think that the modern crisis in the Middle East is because of nationalism not just ethnicity (if you look into Arab history. Subjects of the reigning caliphate identified as Muslims before any other identification. Egypt for example was ruled by every single Muslim ethnicity ranging from turks to maghrebies. I don't know about any instances in which someone who was not a first generation foreigner to Egypt was regarded as a foreigner except when he had public opinion heavily against him)
It is the western stigma that seperates kurds from turks which there isn't a divide as seen in Selahaddin Eyyubi. Muslims don't seperate people by their race, we see their character in act.
Salading deserve the title THE GREAT
Nah, there are too many THE GREATs, but only one Saladin
@@a.h.s.3006 Saladin is his own thing he needs not title
his name mean righteous what more greatest than that
Title "The Great" Was there to remind people of his greatness but you know what more great? People would remember your greatness with only your name without title "the Great", same goes with Napoleon the first.
(not a) fun fact: Salahudin (salah ad-din) (saladin for short) IS his title
I’m a simple man, I see Extra History I click
YEET
Yea

You're no simple man, you're Boba Fett
I nearly cried at the end ... I love how you are honest in your videos and you state facts of history without prejudice.
What a series! A series only on Saladin was really necessary for this incredible historical figure. Good work 👍👍
Can always tell it's a good Extra History series if i start tearing up at the end.
Never challenge Saladin unless you your name is Richard

i thought he really mentioned that but i remembered sun tzu lived thousand years before them tho...
Never start a land war in Asia. Never bet against a Sicilian when death is on the line

This really let me shed some tears. What an honorable man! Spending his whole life in tents and on battlefields even though he was a mighty ruler. While only leaving some coins behind after his death.

When even your enemies deeply respect you, you are truly a great man.
ah come one. that ending was heart touching.

Both sides failed successfully tbh

@@Cergun_ keeping Jerusalem is not a lost
As a masters level graduate of history, its not often I say this, but Saladin was an absolute fucking legend of a man.
I wish there were more leaders like Saladin.
YEET
@@multiplayergamer5728 YEET
Muslim world was full of them
The legendary General Salahdin who is still considered today as " THE SWORD OF ISLAM" in the muslim world. But during his time he was much more than that.
A true muslim hero and at the end, His enemies started to love him and regarded him as The Great. He conquered the heart of the people, Became examplars of honour, Symbol of chivalry and a Celebrated iconic commander in the muslim world.
Where is he called the sword of islam? I never heard him being called that
Well, in a world as today were major powers has mostly be in peace for decades, we tend to value more military might as way to achieve peace. Instead we should realize that individuals who only lived by the sword (such as Alexander) will come to leave nothing but chaos, while individuals like Saladin achieve much more with less violence
I am sorry but if I didn’t know any better sword of Islam is actually an overpriced ck2 dlc.
@@Uqwefsdjxsa hahaha yeah man, I really want to play as Saladin but Paradox would give bullshit price over that.
No you're wrong, the only person who was considered as Sword of Islam was Khalid ibn Walid, Yusuf(Saladin) was called Salah-ad-Din/Saladin meaning the Righteous of Religion.
That's a happy ending for slaheldin rest in peace a great leader he was
His end actually feels super sad to me. The man spent all his life keeping the Muslims together, achieving great things and became a symbol for the Muslim world. Yet he became increasingly powerless and isolated in his ideology for a united Islamic state, watching in frustration as his empire crumbling apart with infighting, and ended up dying lonely and exhausted from all the deeds he had achieved.
@@Secret_Moon For a muslim that's actually not a bad thing. He believes and knows that there is no perfect earth, so I imagine he was grateful for achieving the thing he did manage to achieve namely holding the already fractured states unified and established for a good while under his influence and after. For a muslim like him, it's not so much the victory and the material glory of winning that matters, that's just the icing of the cake, rather the point of it was to face those challenges and do your best facing them and then dying knowing you've spent all you could towards what you genuinely believe is a good cause. That's why you see that he also had no wealth on him as he was dying, the point of it was to spend it all while he could because in his heart there's a destination he's going to where it is his intentions and actions that will have any merit rather than his material achievements.
@@Secret_Moon Actullay no. His ultimate goal was to secure Al Quds (Jerusalem) for Muslims and he achieved that goal. And he did not die "lonely and exhausted", he died knowing that he had done for his people what no one else could have done in centuries. So yeah, he did had a good ending, lived for the cause and died for the cause.
May Allah (swt) bless his righteous soul, aameen.
So this crusade failed, can't wait for the 4th that one will surely be better.
YEET
I Soo want an episode for that.
Venetian sails go WHOOSH
*Crys in ERE*
Yeah, let`s go make another crusade bro, because, what could posibly go wrong?
Richard was more afraid that Philip wanted to take his French possesions, than John taking throne of England. Because England was Richard's moneybag, but France was his love (especially Aquitaine).
Yep. This supposed king of England only visited his kingdom when he absolutely needed the cash. And somehow in every Robin Hood movie John is the taxman and Richard is the one who makes things right again.
An ancestor of mine, Sir Richard Reynell was appointed sheriff of Devonshire by Richard the First when Richard left on the crusades. It's so interesting learning more about time period and the context of all this taking place. Maybe extra history will show us sometime more of what was happening in Europe while the kings were away?
That is super interesting.
Was your ancestor beloved by the people or was he hated like the Sheriff of Nottingham was? Was he lenient when he collected rent from the commoners or was he brutal and demanding?
An awesome series on Saladin! My upcoming novel series that I’m writing out actually takes place in the aftermath of the Third Crusade, with the main protagonist being born just a year after Saladin’s death.
Where can I read it?
that actually sounds awesome
What's the name. It's been two years bro, you gotta tell us!!
saladin and richard wer'e actually pretty good friends. ironic.
YEET
Like most world leaders are and we fight their wars
Bibi
They never met face to face ever.
@@syakirflynnick yep
Richard and Saladin the two great characters of the 3rd crusade. Despite having a high opinion of each other, never met face to face. Saladin at first did not allow Richard to meet him, probably due to anger at the massacre at Acre. And after his defeat Richard was heartbroken and refused to go to pilgrimage in Jerusalem as a loser and also to meet Saladin.
The more I learn about Saladin the more I like him.
Comes back, "So did you take the city honey?", "Na, we let him have it; he's such a nice guy."
Saladin during character creation: “hmmm let’s put every skill point on luck” 😂😂
Remember that word, fortune belongs to the brave!
@@alraziosmany its fortune favors the brave
Luck is indeed a skill
More like Charisma and Luck. Without charisma he will not be able to create favorable elements that eventually allow him to be lucky -- good and loyal brother, competing local kings that still support him just by sending letters, and sympathy that he received from his enemies which allowed him to took diplomatic action -- all comes from max CHA stats.
This just brightened my day!!! I love extra history and this made me happy because I have a twisted ankle. 💜📚
Speed recovery
Saladin truly was a great and honorable man. There's a story that's told about him that when a Frankish Christian woman had her baby stolen and sold on the market, her countrymen told her to appeal to Saladin for aid. Without a second thought he bought the baby back using his own money.
At this point, I know the names of Ahmed Ziad Turk, Kyle Murgatroyd and the other patrons by heart more than the actual names of the Extra Credits people. Thank you for keeping my favorite channel alive.

can i suggest you make an episode on the emergence of the Mamluk Sultanate thats also a pretty cool story
thanks again guys i love your show

As a CK2 player I know the true danger of Crusades, getting the results that Saladin got is not an easy feat especially without occupying Rome.
It feels like Saladin and Richard both getting sick at the same time, while their armies are both exhausted, would be written as an act of God had it happened in Biblical times. Think about it: two respected leaders fighting for what they genuinely believe to be a holy cause, brought to their knees and forced to make peace with each other in order to stop the bloodshed, sounds like something you'd hear in Sunday School.
Richard: My sister wanted to marry Saladin 😢😢😢😢
Aaa.... It's over?
I wish this had been 10 parts long...
I really wanted them to talk about the friendship between Saladin and St. Francis. It’s a really interesting story, and it deserves more attention
So that really role model , he even donate most of his treasure following prophet and his companion
If there was anything that caught my attention else than the legacy of Saladin, it's the animated scene where Richard waves at Saladin. I really hope Extra History would use more animations...
00:35 Some things never change, huh?
One thing tikle my head : in french history books, Philippe Auguste (during the start of the third crusade) got the title "King of the Francs", which is translated in French by "Rois des Francs"; and after conquering Normandy, he modifie his title to "King of the Francs" into "King of France". But on the second episode, the presentator said that Philippe Auguste was King of France in all of the third crusade. Anyway, it is a great serie. You guys are awesome ;-)
A truly fascinating man. I'm becoming more and more bothered I knew nothing of him from my education in school.
One of the greatest kings to ever walk the Earth.....
This just goes to show you, friendship is more powerful than rivalry. Especially when you consider that the deal brokered at the end of this crusade probably brought more peace to the area than any total victory by either side....
So I guess all we are saying....
🎵IS GIVE PEACE A CHANCE🎵
I love this channel! Keep up the great work.
I’ve been waiting for this!
