King Richard 1 even suggested his sister to marry Saladin's brother.
Saladin and King Richard I fought during the Third Crusade, which took place from 1189 to 1192. The conflict arose primarily over control of Jerusalem, which had been captured by Saladin in 1187. The two leaders engaged in several battles, including the notable Battle of Arsuf, but ultimately, the crusade ended with a negotiated settlement rather than a decisive victory for either side. This agreement allowed for Christian pilgrims to access Jerusalem while it remained under Muslim control.

King Richard knew they were very alike. He respected that Saladin was an honorable man, doing what he can to fight for his religion. This was returned by Saladin, who actually gave fresh water and fruit to Richard when he fell ill during the third crusade. Saladin was portrayed as a great and honorable man in many European illuminated manuscripts, and the population of Europe respected him. Richard the Lionheart was respected by the Muslim population.
