Who's Salidin
In the third crusade Richard the lion heart was sent by the pope to win back Jerusalem from Saladin, the Muslim leader.
Saladin took Jerusalem in the Second Crusade, specifically in October of 1187. In the Third Crusade, Saladin started off in control of Jerusalem and Richard the Lionheart abandoned his marches on Jerusalem upon signing the Treaty of Jaffa. As a result, Saladin never lost control of Jerusalem during the Third Crusade and never had to retake it.

Roman Catholic AnswerThe Church, itself, had very little to do with the Third Crusade, other than as a source of inspiration for the Kings involved. The Third Crusade was known as the Kings' Crusade, as it put an end to the war between France and England when their Kings united to take back Jerusalem from the Muslim forces.
Saladin, the Sultan of Egypt and Syria, is the great Muslim leader known for retaking Jerusalem from the Christians during the Third Crusade in 1187. His victory at the Battle of Hattin paved the way for the recapture of Jerusalem after nearly 90 years of Christian control.
The first battle of the third crusade took place at the siege of Acre, which was a coastal city in modern-day Israel. The Christian forces led by King Richard I of England and King Philip II of France successfully captured the city from the Muslim forces after a lengthy siege.
Many rulers of Christian world united under Richard and waged was against Saladin for the control of Jerusalem.
The Leader? Good Question. His name was Saladin, and under Arsuf, they fought. But then, Harold tried taking the throne, so the Crusade's were pointless.
