- 📜 History of Saladin & the 3rd Crusade: Siege of Jerusalem - A king does not kill kings. After the battle at Hattin, Saladin had dealt a grievous blow to the Crusader states. Important figures were captured, and the majority of Guy's forces had been decimated at the Horns of Hattin. But there was another place that was vital for Saladin to take to keep his uneasy alliance strong. Jerusalem, a city of holy sites for the Abrahamic faiths, had been occupied for 80 years. Now it was time to take it back.

You can literally get a kings ransom for releasing a king. Or win the war by negotiating their release.

@Khalil G the rules if Islam are as followed Do not kill any child, any woman, or any elder or sick person.
2. Do not practice treachery or mutilation.
3. Do not uproot or burn palms or cut down fruitful trees.
4. Do not slaughter a sheep or a cow or a camel, except for food.
5. If one fights his brother, [he must] avoid striking the face, for God created him in the image of Adam.
6. Do not kill the monks in monasteries, and do not kill those sitting in places of worship.
7. Do not destroy the villages and towns, do not spoil the cultivated fields and gardens, and do not slaughter the cattle. )
8. Do not wish for an encounter with the enemy; pray to God to grant you security; but when you [are forced to] encounter them, exercise patience
9. No one may punish with fire except the Lord of Fire.
10. Accustom yourselves to do good if people do good, and to not do wrong even if they commit evil. Too bad today's pathetic leaders don't follow them :(

Chess basically has that too. Kings do not kill kings
plus there is not benefit in killing king. capturing him on the other hand deals a much higher blow to the entire kingdom starting a civil war or war of succession which is always beneficial to enemy king.
Not out in plain sight, anyway...
the reasons for this are:
1) the king never leaves the board. period.
2) a king cannot move in range of a king without himself being put into check/mate.
@@sumitshresth Spoiler alert : It's a mistake
But as Elizabeth the 1st proved, Queens can kill Queens
Honestly Salddin's continung mercy is pretty impressive. The vast majority of rulers at the time would never have been this kind even to their own faith let alone to other faiths.

Saladin joined the chat
Pope left the chat
They lost the piece of the true cross as well. Tough times.
Side note: Salidin went on to be respected in later centuries such to a degree that Dante Alegheri when writing the Devine Comedy placed Saladin only in the Limbo, the Woods of the Virtuous Pagans, in the company of the Greek Philosophic Trio. While still in Hell, this circle is a place of respect by comparison.
@@Daughterofminerva Dante's Divine Comedy is a very well known work internationally. Though most laypeople only think of Dante's inferno.
Yeah still suffers from Roman influence though, if you’re a Greek hero ya belong in hell. Also apparently Julius Caesar is there too, despite being genocidal, like Alexander the Great who drowns forever in blood.

Dante Alighieri in the Divine Comedy put Saladin in the Limbo, a place without suffering that lodges the souls of all the unbaptized babies and good non-Christian men, calling him the courteous Saladin. When a man is respected from his enemies he is definitely a worthy man.
That’s a true Muslim
He was a great general may he go to the highest ranking jannah ameen
And where did he put the prophet muhammad?
@@TheSaracen369 in Hell, among the people who sew discord and schism. 😅 To be fair, he was likely to know little or nothing about Muhammad's life. In fact some Dantists ( the scholars who study Dante's works) think that he decided to put Muhammad here and not in the part of Hell lodging the heretics because there was a legend in the Middle Age stating that Muhammad was a Christian who couldn't become Pope, so he found a new Christian sect !

Technically Mary was the former Queen of Scotland when Elizabeth had her executed
Yeh, but... Queens do kill Queens all the time :-)

3:00 Balian: _"What is Jerusalem worth?"_
Saladin: _"Nothing."_ Saladins is now walking back along the hall of the captured palace.
Saladin: _"Everything."_
It's refreshing to see a medieval war leader who makes and honors such generous terms.
Yeah, only enslaving 15,000 people defending their home and charging ransom for another 7,000 is surprisingly generous for the times
@@CrimsonCoder14 you're looking through modern standard. In comparison when the crusaders took Jerusalem, they massacred so much muslims AND jews, that almost every road inside Jerusalem was paved with blood.
@@m.suhaidi4966 That's the main reason that I said "for the times" no offense was intended mate
Saladin must also more or less have benn the international cat herding champion to keep his coalition together as long as he did.
@@CrimsonCoder14 Go tell that to Genghis khan who wiped out more than 20% of entire world population then you will know what is mercy by medieval standard. and considering what the cruseders did when they took the city, salahdin indeed showed mercy.
Fun fact: Saladin also let Jewish people live in Jerusalem and even created a special guard for Jewish and Christian civilians there.
Saladin is a lesson in staying honourable, even when everyone else isn’t

Saladin is one of my favorite characters in history! Thank you for doing a story on him, and for including his piousness in this episode.
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. He conquered heart of the people, Became examplars of honour, Symbol of chivalry and a Celebrated iconic commander in the muslim world.
I thought you said "the sword of allah" i was like (waiiiit a minute, wasn't that khalid ibn al-walid)
@@razwansaifadin6055 yeah i think the sword of islam title belongs to khalid. Timur proclaimed himself to be the sword of islam too.
Yes. We FINALLY get to hear of his generosity, tactics and PR in the west. And Not being biased by western historians for being Muslim.
He should be named "Salladin the great"
@@rpavangchhia8953 no most Muslim especially sunni muslims considered him as the prince of destruction.

This time in history is so interesting.
I know right? The high to late medieval period was one of the most interesting times in history feeling somewhat like Game of Thrones in a way with the rise of dynasties, brilliant generals, and even the rise of gunpowder and other technologies.
@@CrimsonCoder14 richard the lionheart gonna be in the 3rd Crusade
mostly cuz saladin is such an intriguing figure. we usually hear about extreme acts of barbarity not mercy.

Haha, true that 🤣
There're multiple interpretations on why Saladin gave Raynald option between convert to Islam or die, 3 I can find:
- Saladin knew Raynald would refuse anyway so the only thing he want was Raynald's death.
- Saladin try to be compassionate by offering convertion to Islam since that would clean Raynald's soul from every sins he committed previously, if he refuse than the man was too dangerous to live.
- Saladin want to kill Raynald purely for political reason, strengthened himself and weaken both domestic and foreign oppositions.
reynald was a murderer who killed many muslims, he was not killed for just politics.
As for the question of conversion, its an Islamic custom to allow one last chance to foes, many great foes in Islamic history became some of its greatist leaders.
Umar was one of the most dangerous enemies of the muslims before converting, he even drew a sword intending to kill the Prophet Muhammad (SAW), umar later led the muslims and was the one to take jerusalem for the muslims personally without bloodshed.
Khalid ibn waleed is one of the greatest generals in the world, he never lost a battle including the ones he led against the Prophet Muhammad (SAW) and his army nearly killed the Prophet (SAW) in one battle. Khalid later went on to be known as the "sword of ALLAH (SWT)" and he defeated superior roman and persian forces multiple times.
in essence, reynald sucked but everybody deserves a chance to repent to their maker.
The law of truce breaking is death, but Saladin still want him to live as if he converting to Islam, it's a sin to kill a fellow muslim, but since he refused, Raynald punishment is enacted.
in islam we are required to give infidel enemies 3choices : 1 convert to islam -2 keep your faith but pay a tax -3 fight or die

You know he still enslaved thousands right? I'm not saying we should brand him as a bad person or anything, but he certainly isn't worthy of the level of praise that people give him today.
@@mitchellstocken1116 slavery is just very common in those days. Almost every rich person has a slave in that time so i don't think him enslaving thousands overshadow the fact that he is one of the greatest man at that time. There are many general in that time that didn't do his kind of generous act that stills enslaved thousands.
In the Dante's Inferno movie, Dante meets Saladin in Limbo and Saladin, not speaking, just stares at Dante, which gives Dante flashbacks of all the cruelty he unleashed as a Crusader under the delusion that, since a priest promised all of his future sins were absolved by joining the crusade, he could basically do whatever he wanted. Saladin's judgmental eyes freaked Dante out so much that he decided to move on to the second circle rather than stay in the relatively safe Limbo.

"Kings do not kill Kings"
What a noble principle!
“Kings do not kill kings.”
Whoops.
Of course they don't kill other kings... they have perfectly good executioners for that
Saladin, was indeed a wise and efective ruler.
Note that Saladin payed for the poor crusaders fee to leave when the rich crusaders payed only for themselves.
Not true. Balian and the Patriarch of Jerusalem offered themselves as hostages in exchange for the rest of the prisoners, but Saladin refused. Some sources say that the Patriarch stripped the church treasuries to raise enough to free more captives. There can be nobility and selflessness on both sides.
