This is a victory opening the gates of men's hearts.
Who he was
Salah ad-Din Yusuf, known in Europe as Saladin, was a Kurdish officer who took power in Egypt in 1169 and later brought Syria under his rule, founding the Ayyubid dynasty. In 1187 he crushed the crusader army at Hattin and took Jerusalem.
He fought Richard the Lionheart in the Third Crusade to a truce in 1192 that left Jerusalem in his hands. Muslim and Christian writers alike praised his generosity. He died in Damascus in 1193.
