Saladin was a Muslim leader at the time of the 3rd Crusade. That was at the end of the 1100s. He fought against Philip of France & Richard I of England (Lionheart). I think he came from what is now Iraq.

When did saladin take Jerusalem in the third crusade?

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.


Why do you think Richard and saladin signed a truce?

Richard-I and Saladin entered a failed negotiation for the return of the True Cross to the Crusaders in exchange for the lives of 3,000 Muslim prisoners. Saladin wanted to stall and not hand over a relic which would only embolden Richard and his troops in their attack on Jerusalem. They would later enter a secret negotiation (also failed) involving marrying off Richard's sister to Saladin's brother Alahdeel (sp?). Which failed due to the siblings problems with the faith of their prospective political betroved. The one successful negotiation involved ending the conflict after Saladin's failed counterattack at the port of Jaffe. With both armies exhausted, they would end the wars of the third crusade and Richard would keep the conquered cities of Acre and Jaffe while Saladin would keep everything else in his empire.


What are some bad things about Saladin?

Most of the "bad things" about Saladin reflect on the fact that, to his enemies, he was not a Christian and was a better person and leader than the Christian rulers he was fighting. It should be remembered that Saladin did not kill the innocent Christian inhabitants of cities he captured, The Crusaders however killed all Muslims, leaving the streets knee deep in bloodHe was a self made man, not a hereditary rulerHe united the Muslims of SyriaHe defeated the Christians at a great battle near the lake of Galilee and conquered the Christian cities of Syria and Jerusalem.He essential defeated the three greatest rulers of Europe - King Philip Augustus of France, King Richard I of England, and the German emperor, Frederick Barbarossa in the second crusade.During the Third Crusade when King Richard the Lionheart was sick with a fever, Saladin supplied him with delicacies, sent him a gift of the choicest fruits of the land.When Richard's horse had been killed in battle, Saladin sent a fine Arabian steed as a present for his rival.He forced Richard to sign a truce when Richard could not regain JerusalemThe terms of Saladin's truce were honorable and generous. As an example Christians were permitted to visit Jerusalem without paying tribute, that they should have free access to the holy places, and remain in undisturbed possession of the coast from Jaffa to Tyre.
