The first successful Islamic Conquest of Jerusalem was under Caliph Omar in 634 C.E. Jerusalem remained under Islamic Control (under various different empires) until 1099 C.E. when it fell into Crusader hands. Saladin retook the city for the Ayyubid Caliphate in 1187 C.E. and it remained under Islamic control until the Second Crusader Kingdom took Jerusalem back in 1229 C.E., only to lose it to the Ayyubids again in 1244 C.E. The city was under Islamic control until 1919, when it came under British control. After the Arab-Israeli War of 1948, the city was divided between West Jerusalem under Israeli control and East Jerusalem under Jordanian (Muslim) Occupation. In 1967, the Muslims lost Jerusalem for the final time when the Israeli government unified the city in contravention to International Law.
