Saladin was one of the most respected leaders and military commanders in history. Under his great leadership, the Islamic world was shifted from its darkest hours to a tremendous victory over the combined Christian armies of Europe. He was responsible for reuniting many of the Islamic Empires and forming the Ayyubid dynasty. He was a loved ruler and his reign was considered as one of Islam’s golden era. He wished to be buried in the garden of the Umayyad Mosque and after his death, a modest tomb was built in his name. Even to this day, Saladin’s tomb remains one of the most visited gravestones in the entire Islamic world. Being a UNESCO World Heritage site, it also attracts a lot of tourists every year.
