It derives from the Templar Cross, but with notable differences. The Templars were seen as the archetype of what they thought the ideal crusader should be. The red cross was to symbolize the Templar's willingness to die in service to Christ and the white background was to symbolize their purity of spirit as they gave up material wealth and lived an austere monastic life when not in battle. During the crusades the Christians also started to venerate St. George as he was the warrior saint and depicted him as a Templar/Crusader in Christian art. The red cross on white was adopted by the soldiers of the French and English kings during 2nd crusade who were placed under command of Knight Templar captains. The difference being the red cross adoptedes by the soldiers were straight broad red bands on white backgrounds like the paintings of St. George whereas the real Templars wore the red cross pattée which didn't extend to the edge. It's believed the English adopted the St. George style flag after Richard the Lionheart returned to England after the 3rd crusade.

Very few will walk on the path of God and Rassool. For this you need tremendous love for God!! But we love our body, our mind and this world more than God!! Why? Because of lack of unconditional love!!!!
I whish this could become a movie!!! We've have seen many narrations about the Crusades, but only from the West perspective, and only talking about their victories, this East perspective it's way more interesting!!! 😀😀😀 I didn't know the Crusaders lost so many times and conquered so little!!! But I know that the history isn't over, and that this war lasted for hundreds of years, so I'm anxiously waiting for the next chapters!!! 😊
purple cosmos Yeah, but it's a history that it's worth to be told, this Arab perspective is very valid!!! And also, sadness didn't stop Hollywood to make dozens of movies based on the Holocaust, so somebody should make a movie based on this documentary!!!
My great grand mothers ancestors where Spanish. They faced the Islamic Jihad from 712 onwards. Wasn't that the Muslim Crusade against West European Christianity. Thank god eventually the Christian of Iberian won and regained their freedom.
The inquisition was an inevitable reaction to the trauma of seven hundreds of virtually constant warfare.The mistrust between Jews, Muslims and Christians became so ingrained that it continued even after most of the Spanish Jews and Muslims converted to Christianity. The Christians in Spain had a pretty bad time of it under Muslim rule. Dhimmitude. Living as third class citizens. In fact by the time they took Granada back there were very few Christians left there.
Robert Faulkner There was no such trauma. The time frame we are speaking of is huge. We are dealing with centuries, and not months, or a few years of Muslim rule. On the whole, main boundaries were well established and understood by both sides. Under Muslim rule, Christians, Jews and Muslims practiced their individual beliefs, yet co-operated as one people and society prospered as a result. Let us not forget, Spain excelled under this rule. Intellectual knowledge and scientific progress flourished from all three established communities. An attempt should not be made to justify religious persecution of the worst kind but you may try to understand, without sympathy, how it came to pass. The Spanish Inquisition was not just against Muslims or Jews. Though Jews, could never be explained as a credible threat but were targeted nonetheless in Christian Spain. In that time, religion ruled and ruled peoples' minds with intent. You could just as easily be executed for a fallacious charge of blasphemy as you could for being a non-Christian. The obvious political dimensions were there but the driving force behind the Inquisition was one based in religious supremacy. It was more about the nature of Christianity at that time than anything else.
The Middle East was under the Byzantine Empire which was a christian empire before the rise of Islam so the Crusaders were not invaders but liberators who wanted to take back the Holy Land.
In the one hand, good to finally hear the other perspective. On the other, it definitely feels and has the same propegandic look to it that many Christian depictions of the crusades have, ie demonize the opposition glorify the self.
Most of the Crusades from a western perspective where a complete and utter disaster. I have never heard a western perspective that glorified the Crusaders.

look at all the Sunni dominated countries(Turkey, Azerbaijan, Jordan, Saudi Arabia , Egypt,Qatar , UAE , Kuweit Oman...etc. etc.) in the ME allied or freindly to America & Israel tell us who is the real stumbling block to the Ummah. Maybe when Pakistan refuses to take another annual $1billion sum of military aid from the US congress (same people giving Israel 3$billlion every year) will you be able to tell us who are the true Traitors
musti mon yes you are right.Unfortunately Shias have always been a problem for the Muslims. The fall of Baghdad (1258), The fall of Baghdad (2003), The fall of Jerusalem (1099), The fall of Bengal (1757) all have their roots into shia betrayal and treason.
AMIN MALUF's Book; "The Crusades Through Arab Eyes" , is one of my favourite books. I thank god for my parents had a lot of books available in my house. I read this book in my teenager years and i learn a lot how different people has different ways of life and other way to look at the problems etc..,
@@CFD_Mechanic Oh well, it was payback time for them occupying Britain for 400 years. They shouldn't have messed with us Barbarians in the first place.
history always tells the story of how trechery and jealousy arose among the Shia adherents.pfft..the story of how Baghdad fell in the hand of the Mongols, the story of the gulf war, the story of syria etc..
Perhaps, but one should remenber that most muslims are sunni and that was Always the case. Therefore, there is a bias in historical narrative that most often tilts in favor of the sunni.
Correct. I am not a Muslim BUT I always been an UNBIASED research and the truth, even when is very difficult to find, is out there. If someday for any reason I was given the ultimatum to convert to Islam, I will become a Shia. By the way, do the readers knows what " Shia " means ? Do you know the names of the Persian families converted to Islam that started the " translation revolution " ?
The Shias have nothing to do with the fall of Baghdad They battled Mongols for years and killed many of them they also killed Crusaders and assassinated the King Of Jerusalem and they tried to kill the Mongol Khan .
@@Мустафаиракский-я8ш where did you get this from ? shia basically opened the gates of Baghdad to the Mongols after Ibn Al-qami conspired in secret with them (he was the head minister and also shia) they did not fight mongols ,in fact mongols were disgusted with their treason and treated them as servants and shia fatimid allowed crusaders to invade parts of egypt and levants only because they were afraid of salajuks they also conspired against Iraq in 1990 and eventually 2003 and formed a militia (they call it iraq army) to fight with Americans against resistance
All Sins are subject to forgiveness by the most Merciful Allah except SHIRK. A Mushrik is doomed. Grave worshiping, talking to the dust and the bones of dead buried deep underground and believing that the remaining bones and dust of the buried saints can hear you and intercept for you to Allah so that your needs can be granted is one of the KABIR SHIRK. Shirk is the main cause for the suffering of the Umah. This suffering will continue as long as deviate way of worshiping Allah among Muslims is practiced. STOP saying “Ya Ali,” “ Ya Housain,” “Ya Hassan,” “Ya Muhammad” and BEGIN saying ” Ya Allah,” “ Ya Allah,” “ Ya Allah,” “ Ya Allah”
A very interesting presentation. I actually admire Saladin but I do not admire the current situation in Europe in regard Muslim immigration. The cultures are too far apart to be compatible in any way.......
I think the immigrants are the weakest link Big UE Govs such as Germany are in control of the situation they can deport illegals any time they want ,they can also stop hosting the new legal immigrants ,but they don't want too. I don't know why they are keep hosing that much of immigrants ? To solve age dilemma or shortage of population ? sorry I don't buy it , there's many ways to solve this with out any demographic change . Hosting immigrants or refugees not only causing demographic problems in EU but also in Levant by taking them as refugees rather than supporting them politically - Speaking of cultures , culture is an identification, something makes you different from others . However people could be compatible by friendship , trade or tourism unlike cultures .
West should Stop causing unrest in Middle East in form of fake revolutions and democracy, and there will be no Arab refugees in Europe, u reap what u sow !!!
You lying, they became tired in the past. This is no crusade, just colonialism. What you are doing is blaming others of your own faults. You are the ones who never stop jihad for force others to become arab.

Then u build a school and free education for children with no monney , and u convert them to christians.

@@adamnesico thats not true , i am muslim and i dont like arabs , because they are far from following islamic principles , they follow their culture. Same like in Europe , people dont follow the Bible and still call themself christians. Christians in europe follow the pope and the church and not the bible. The pope can override the Bible and you all will think its normal and accept it.
You mean like when Timur under the flag of Islam killed 17milion or the moguls killed 70,million in India and destroying 48,000 Hindu temples,and many millions more
M.K B That's not true, they were referred to as "assassins" by other Muslims as a smear campaign (maybe because 1) they were jealous of the Fatimid's comfortable lifestyle as they were based in Egypt and 2) because of their slightly different interpretation of the same religion) Unfortunately, the myth has stuck.
The crusades where a response to the thousand of wars against christians which until today are on going in armenia soudan egypt cyprus syria irak indonesia pakistan israel

But so did the soul! 🙁🙁🙁🙁🙁
Very few will walk on the path of God and Rassool. For this you need tremendous love for God!! But we love our body, our mind and this world more than God!! Why? Because of lack of unconditional love!!!!
I whish this could become a movie!!! We've have seen many narrations about the Crusades, but only from the West perspective, and only talking about their victories, this East perspective it's way more interesting!!! 😀😀😀
I didn't know the Crusaders lost so many times and conquered so little!!! But I know that the history isn't over, and that this war lasted for hundreds of years, so I'm anxiously waiting for the next chapters!!! 😊
It's really an amazing story, even tho it can be a little sad.
There is a movie for this called "The kingdom of Heaven".
Khalid Khalfan Nice!!! :D , can I find on the internet??? Is the audio in English???
purple cosmos Yeah, but it's a history that it's worth to be told, this Arab perspective is very valid!!! And also, sadness didn't stop Hollywood to make dozens of movies based on the Holocaust, so somebody should make a movie based on this documentary!!!
Yet after all this, Jerusalem is back in Jewish hands.
My great grand mothers ancestors where Spanish. They faced the Islamic Jihad from 712 onwards. Wasn't that the Muslim Crusade against West European Christianity. Thank god eventually the Christian of Iberian won and regained their freedom.
Robert Faulkner That was eventually followed by the Spanish Inquisition, and again, you need to thank Christianity for that.
The inquisition was an inevitable reaction to the trauma of seven hundreds of virtually constant warfare.The mistrust between Jews, Muslims and Christians became so ingrained that it continued even after most of the Spanish Jews and Muslims converted to Christianity. The Christians in Spain had a pretty bad time of it under Muslim rule. Dhimmitude. Living as third class citizens. In fact by the time they took Granada back there were very few Christians left there.
Robert Faulkner There was no such trauma. The time frame we are speaking of is huge. We are dealing with centuries, and not months, or a few years of Muslim rule. On the whole, main boundaries were well established and understood by both sides. Under Muslim rule, Christians, Jews and Muslims practiced their individual beliefs, yet co-operated as one people and society prospered as a result. Let us not forget, Spain excelled under this rule. Intellectual knowledge and scientific progress flourished from all three established communities.
An attempt should not be made to justify religious persecution of the worst kind but you may try to understand, without sympathy, how it came to pass. The Spanish Inquisition was not just against Muslims or Jews. Though Jews, could never be explained as a credible threat but were targeted nonetheless in Christian Spain. In that time, religion ruled and ruled peoples' minds with intent. You could just as easily be executed for a fallacious charge of blasphemy as you could for being a non-Christian. The obvious political dimensions were there but the driving force behind the Inquisition was one based in religious supremacy. It was more about the nature of Christianity at that time than anything else.
you kicked them out and now they're coming back. Enjoy.@@OmegaKent
Thank God for the crusaders, imagine what the world 🌎 would have been now 🙏
The Muslim Empires unite and strike back.
War never changes, still every generation seems to forget that we have been here many times before.
no worries us muslim will still dominate the modern crusades

The Middle East was under the Byzantine Empire which was a christian empire before the rise of Islam so the Crusaders were not invaders but liberators who wanted to take back the Holy Land.
The byzantines were killing christians actually
Haydar Ibrahim there is this sides to every story.
Salahuddin Ayubi the great warrior of Islam💚💚💚💪
In the one hand, good to finally hear the other perspective. On the other, it definitely feels and has the same propegandic look to it that many Christian depictions of the crusades have, ie demonize the opposition glorify the self.
Exactly. Propaganda and half truths.
Most of the Crusades from a western perspective where a complete and utter disaster. I have never heard a western perspective that glorified the Crusaders.
This series, all 4 parts, was amazing and enlightening! What particularly stood out for me was the stark contrast between Christian illiteracy, ignorance, and rogue fanaticism of the Crusaders versus the more erudite Islamic ideals of science, medicine, mathematics, and literacy. Phlebotomy or demon exorcism? Really? Clearly these empires were functioning on different levels. Today, we can still see this phenomenon represented today between the educated who tout intellectualism and uneducated who have nothing but religious fundamentalism to establish any kind of purpose or meaning in life. Thanks for making this AJ!

The music is great❤️
Nothing has Changed Still Europeans are Occupying those Lands and are Continuing to Expand.
Shias did it back than and they are doing it now. They support the Crussaders
shame on you man.. behave
that's what i am saying.. shame on the treacherous Shia.. their real God is Abdallah ibn Saba
look at all the Sunni dominated countries(Turkey, Azerbaijan, Jordan, Saudi Arabia , Egypt,Qatar , UAE , Kuweit Oman...etc. etc.) in the ME allied or freindly to America & Israel tell us who is the real stumbling block to the Ummah. Maybe when Pakistan refuses to take another annual $1billion sum of military aid from the US congress (same people giving Israel 3$billlion every year) will you be able to tell us who are the true Traitors
digiart yeah we are cancer for the European dark ages
musti mon yes you are right.Unfortunately Shias have always been a problem for the Muslims. The fall of Baghdad (1258), The fall of Baghdad (2003), The fall of Jerusalem (1099), The fall of Bengal (1757) all have their roots into shia betrayal and treason.
There were great generals that cannot be replaced in the muslim and salahdin is one of them.
Bible: Love thy enemy
Crusaders: .......do we tho?
There's no alternative but true unity dignity self-respect and responsibilities in between Muslim countries
There are people in academic circles here in the U.S.who pretend the Crusaders were fighting a defensive war
Yes, they were a Christian answer to Muslim Jihad.
So ppl from europe comes to jerusalem, killing and exile native ppl around jerusalem is defensive war? Cool story bro
@@mentosdesu6888 well said....they kick the natives and claim the land as their....
Nice try. Muslim armies had attacked Christian lands for 400 yrs before the 1st Crusade even began. Own your own history and stop playing victim.
@@drugilbert2447 I agree.
AMIN MALUF's Book;
"The Crusades Through Arab Eyes" , is one of my favourite books. I thank god for my parents had a lot of books available in my house. I read this book in my teenager years and i learn a lot how different people has different ways of life and other way to look at the problems etc..,
more documentaries pleae
It's not a documentary though, cos a documentary would tell u the facts from a neutral stand point
@@Adam-hs9ft so? Whats wrong
Finally a realistic perspective.
Crusade says when you make advetise in your TH-cam videos thy ask 1/3 from your profit
thanks to al jazeera we know this side of history too
These crusades' were the same barbarian who destroyed Western Roman Empire and also greatly undermined Eastern Roman Empire.
Never heard that one.
@@grahamt5924 so who were the people who ruled germany, france, spain, british, and other areas in western europe?
@@CFD_Mechanic The Crusades where from the Roman empire. Surely they where Romans 🤔
@@grahamt5924
Roman empire was no more after 460-470 AD. It was encroached by Germanic tribes, which were known as Barbarians by Romans.
@@CFD_Mechanic Oh well, it was payback time for them occupying Britain for 400 years. They shouldn't have messed with us Barbarians in the first place.
Looking at the past may help to look forward.

Wrong video my friend
Lots of thanks
history always tells the story of how trechery and jealousy arose among the Shia adherents.pfft..the story of how Baghdad fell in the hand of the Mongols, the story of the gulf war, the story of syria etc..
Perhaps, but one should remenber that most muslims are sunni and that was Always the case. Therefore, there is a bias in historical narrative that most often tilts in favor of the sunni.
Correct. I am not a Muslim BUT I always been an UNBIASED research and the truth, even when is very difficult to find, is out there. If someday for any reason I was given the ultimatum to convert to Islam, I will become a Shia. By the way, do the readers knows what " Shia " means ? Do you know the names of the Persian families converted to Islam that started the " translation revolution " ?
3aBydoSauRus shia has this one thing called taqiyya. They don't want to admit cause they can lie. They plan butAllah is the best planner.
The Shias have nothing to do with the fall of Baghdad
They battled Mongols for years and killed many of them they also killed Crusaders and assassinated the King Of Jerusalem and they tried to kill the Mongol Khan .
@@Мустафаиракский-я8ш where did you get this from ?
shia basically opened the gates of Baghdad to the Mongols after Ibn Al-qami conspired in secret with them
(he was the head minister and also shia)
they did not fight mongols ,in fact mongols were disgusted with their treason and treated them as servants
and shia fatimid allowed crusaders to invade parts of egypt and levants only because they were afraid of salajuks
they also conspired against Iraq in 1990 and eventually 2003 and formed a militia (they call it iraq army) to fight with Americans against resistance
❤️❤️❤️💜 a lot of love from my heart
All Sins are subject to forgiveness by the most Merciful Allah except SHIRK. A Mushrik is doomed.
Grave worshiping, talking to the dust and the bones of dead buried deep underground and believing that the remaining bones and dust of the buried saints can hear you and intercept for you to Allah so that your needs can be granted is one of the KABIR SHIRK.
Shirk is the main cause for the suffering of the Umah. This suffering will continue as long as deviate way of worshiping Allah among Muslims is practiced.
STOP saying “Ya Ali,” “ Ya Housain,” “Ya Hassan,” “Ya Muhammad” and BEGIN saying ” Ya Allah,” “ Ya Allah,” “ Ya Allah,” “ Ya Allah”
@Omega K.
True. Thank you for your additional inputs.
Love and respect to Mosul❤❤
A very interesting presentation. I actually admire Saladin but I do not admire the current situation in Europe in regard Muslim immigration. The cultures are too far apart to be compatible in any way.......
Europe hasn't lost its identity, yet. It is just being perverted by the U.S. since the end of WW2.
I think the immigrants are the weakest link
Big UE Govs such as Germany are in control of the situation they can deport illegals any time they want ,they can also stop hosting the new legal immigrants ,but they don't want too.
I don't know why they are keep hosing that much of immigrants ?
To solve age dilemma or shortage of population ? sorry I don't buy it , there's many ways to solve this with out any demographic change .
Hosting immigrants or refugees not only causing demographic problems in EU but also in Levant by taking them as refugees rather than supporting them politically
- Speaking of cultures , culture is an identification, something makes you different from others . However people could be compatible by friendship , trade or tourism unlike cultures .
Ηaving immigrand employees and wishing to find a way NOT to pay their wages.
stop telling your leaders to bomb their countries then.
West should Stop causing unrest in Middle East in form of fake revolutions and democracy, and there will be no Arab refugees in Europe, u reap what u sow !!!
The crusaders will never get tired , unless we become one of them . The prophet s.a.w.s foresow this 1500 years ago.
You lying, they became tired in the past.
This is no crusade, just colonialism.
What you are doing is blaming others of your own faults.
You are the ones who never stop jihad for force others to become arab.
@@adamnesico are you stupid or what ??? I am even not an arab . Arab is a race . Can i force you to become a chinese ? I dont think so. But the west is impoaing christanity to the whole world. Christianity became like a cancer. You go to africa , take all their gold and diamonds away from the people. Then u build a school and free education for children with no monney , and u convert them to christians.
@@princdubai You dont know West, west now hates christianity.
Know more about west be4 criticise it.
And for blame west, you have a westerner as username.
@@princdubai and yes, islamisation=arabisation
They take arab names, clothing, values, traditions, prophet, pray, holy sites and book...
@@adamnesico thats not true , i am muslim and i dont like arabs , because they are far from following islamic principles , they follow their culture. Same like in Europe , people dont follow the Bible and still call themself christians. Christians in europe follow the pope and the church and not the bible. The pope can override the Bible and you all will think its normal and accept it.
This needs to be dubbed.
Awesome work by the channel to introduce the Muslim umma to the immensely important historical sagas 💎👍
You mean like when Timur under the flag of Islam killed 17milion or the moguls killed 70,million in India and destroying 48,000 Hindu temples,and many millions more
So Assasin's Creed is based of a Shia organization .. who knew
M.K B That's not true, they were referred to as "assassins" by other Muslims as a smear campaign (maybe because
1) they were jealous of the Fatimid's comfortable lifestyle as they were based in Egypt and
2) because of their slightly different interpretation of the same religion)
Unfortunately, the myth has stuck.
based on a sect of shia mainly the ismailis

loved this documentary.....if you want to see a movie about salahudin then watch KINGDOM OF HEAVEN
Better watch Arn he Templar, Kingdom of Heaven is just Hollywoods copy of it.
Although is true that the Salahuddin of KoH is more realistic.
I'm convinced the eu Europeans are hajuj majuj
They and chinese
Wow this is great video
less drawings and more maps please. for an arab all this cities locations should be easy to identify but for us foreigners its like saying "somewhere in the middle east".
Trust me, an average Arab doesn't know where Antioch or Edessa are.
Afghan believe me, we do
and please understand this
all groups have people who are smart and others average
educated and uneducated
+Afghan
Aleppo Damascus Mosul is very well known cities in the Arab world
it is like taking about paris london Rome in the Western World
it would help if they had a version where they dub the Arabic instead of just captions so i dont have to keep reading gets kind of annoying
Mashallah!! happy to know the muslim retaliation against the fanatic christians invasion.
