استرداد صلاح الدين بيت المقدس

استرداد صلاح الدين بيت المقدس

c. 1187 CE · 583 AH

Jerusalem

In 583 Salah al-Din took many Frankish-held towns of Syria — Jerusalem greatest of them, ninety-one years in their hands. He cleared their traces, razed their new churches, built a Shafi'i school on one site, yet spared the Holy Sepulchre as Umar had before him. Ibn Barrajan had read in 'Alif Lam Mim — the Romans were defeated' that Jerusalem would stay Roman till 583, then be a house of Islam for ever — 'one of the strangest coincidences', says Abu Shama, 'and Ibn Barrajan died long before' {cite:tarikh-khulafa-minhaj-1434 p. 692-693}.
