Saladin-The Unifying Force of Islam The Mighty Sultan

Saladin - The Unifying Power of Islam Mighty Sultan Book Description The Western world and thought never forgot and could not forget the two "Oriental" leaders. As the religion of the Middle East and Central Asia, Islam is not a significant interlocutor for the West. For many years, Europe did not see Islam and Muslims in its own league. The destruction of the Andalusian Islamic Civilization, which turned Spain and Portugal into Islamic lands and threatened France, with barbaric and unprecedented methods, strengthened the self-confidence of Europe and the papacy. Numerous Crusades, large and small, as a "preventive measure" by the Papacy, confined the Islamic civilization to the Middle East and Central Asia until the 13th century. Saladin, the Sultan of the Orient, who traumatized Westerners, conquered Jerusalem once again, paving the way for Sultan Mehmet the Conqueror to conquer Istanbul. Therefore, these two leaders have become a phenomenon for Westerners in today's discourse. The best method is to evaluate and rate people by looking at their enemies. Richard I, known as "The Lionheart", sees Saladin as his enemy, but places significant emphasis on his qualities. This book tells about Saladin from the eyes of the "enemy".
