Саладин. Всемогущий султан и победитель крестоносцев

The British orientalist Stanley Lane-Poole, in his work on Saladin (Salah ad-Din ibn Ayyub, 1138-1193), describes the life path of one of the most legendary personalities of Islam, admired both in the East and in the West. Saladin's unwavering devotion to Islam inspired him to carry the banner of faith throughout his empire, stretching from Arabia to North Africa. After capturing the Syrian strongholds of Damascus and Aleppo, Saladin set off to conquer Jerusalem, which triggered the Third Crusade. It was in this city that he gained fame as a chivalrous and just warrior ... Saladin's amazing military victories, his diplomatic success in negotiations with the West, his passionate nationalism and advanced judicial system influenced the rulers of the Arab countries for centuries.
