Jerusalem was considered holy to Muslims during the Crusades primarily because it is home to the Al-Aqsa Mosque, which is the third holiest site in Islam after Mecca and Medina. The city is believed to be the location from which the Prophet Muhammad ascended to heaven during the Night Journey, making it a significant spiritual center. Additionally, Jerusalem holds historical and religious importance in Islamic tradition, further solidifying its status as a revered city for Muslims during the Crusades.

The European Christians' wars against Muslims primarily refer to the Crusades, a series of religiously sanctioned military campaigns that began in the late 11th century. The Crusades aimed to reclaim Jerusalem and the Holy Land from Muslim control, driven by a mix of religious fervor, territorial ambition, and economic interests. Notable Crusades include the First Crusade (1096-1099) and the Third Crusade (1189-1192), which involved prominent figures like Richard the Lionheart. These conflicts had lasting impacts on Christian-Muslim relations and shaped the political landscape of the Mediterranean region.
There are approximately 2 million Christians (one million Catholics and one million Protestants of varying sects), plus 1 million Muslims. Thus, the total would be 3 million, or about half of the world's total population. (Of the other 3 billion of the world's population, 1.2 billion are Chinese, 1.1 billion are from India, and the rest include "all others").

No Followers of Islam are less in number than followers of Christianity. There are more Christians than Muslims in the world. However, number of Muslims is growing faster than Christians. Both religions are the largest population religions in the world. Muslims account for around one fourth of World population while Christians account for around one third of world population.
SOME of the wars called the "Crusades" involved the taking and retaking of Jerusalem. The Crusades were different wars with different characters. One, the Fourth, have nothing to do with the Muslims at all, but concerned the capture of Constantinople by the Latins from the Greeks. Another was an invasion of Egypt (Muslim, but definitely not where one would find Jerusalem). Of eight, sometimes nine, designated Crusades, only the First (where the Crusaders took Jerusalem)and Third (where the Muslims held on to it) were significant on that basis. Other so-called "Crusades" (e.g., the Albigensian Crusade) were actually purges of heretical sects from within Catholic territory. One also occasionally hears the word "crusade" used to mean a non-military collective struggle for some desirable social change, for example: "Crusade for Literacy" or "Crusade for Childhood Vaccination." The Muslim version of Crusade is "Jihad." Both terms have a) a military meaning and b) a nonmilitary one, which the professing group insists is the "real" meaning and which the opposing group prefers to ignore.
During the Crusades, key Christian political leaders included figures such as Pope Urban II, who initiated the First Crusade in 1095, and King Richard the Lionheart of England, known for his leadership during the Third Crusade. Other notable leaders included Godfrey of Bouillon, a prominent commander in the First Crusade, and Saladin, the Muslim leader often contrasted with Christian leaders for his role in the Crusades. These leaders played significant roles in mobilizing forces and shaping the events of the Crusades.
Richard the Lionhearted
the third crusades was called the king's crusades, because they had favor in the king's eyes.
