00:00In a few moments, the money was counted.
00:02Bilaqa Khan took 44,000 dinars and left the meeting.
00:07Abu Dawood handed the money to him and started whistling about his great success.
00:14Bilaqa Khan smiled and looked at the drunkard and went towards the door.
00:19In the second moment, he and his companions had to shudder as many masked men entered through the door.
00:26They had naked swords in their hands.
00:28Bilaqa Khan understood Abu Dawood's move immediately.
00:31The masked men surrounded him from all sides.
00:34Tatari, a masked man said,
00:37Keep all the money here and quietly find a way out.
00:41If any of you try to act smart or try to come here again, he will lose his life.
00:47Abu Dawood, Bilaqa Khan shouted in a rage,
00:51This game will cost you.
00:53It is still time to repent for your stupidity.
00:56Abu Dawood went ahead in a drunken stupor and in one moment he snatched the bundle of money from Bilaqa Khan's companion.
01:04Bilaqa Khan, my friend, there is no need to threaten.
01:07I am not only a local, but the judges here are also in my hands.
01:11You make a lot of noise, no one will listen to you here.
01:14It would be better if you go back to your tents with your companions,
01:19otherwise, what Abu Dawood, you will lose your life.
01:23Whose life?
01:24Bilaqa Khan said in an angry tone,
01:26In the second moment, a small dagger flew into Abu Dawood's chest.
01:31All this happened in such a way that the masked men could not understand.
01:35Abu Dawood's scream came out of his throat and he was piled up on the ground.
01:40The masked men were lost in a state of confusion that the swords of Bilaqa Khan's companions
01:45glinted instantly and they scattered on the ground one by one in the same state.
01:50In a few moments, Bisaat was turned upside down.
01:53In the evening, Bilaqa Khan had no doubt that there was something fishy about Abu Dawood's account book
01:59and Ziafat's mischief.
02:02He had convinced his two companions, so they did not even touch the liquor.
02:08Both of them had a bad reputation in Shamshirzani.
02:11Bilaqa Khan pointed to his companions.
02:14They went ahead and took all the money in the cupboard.
02:18During the search, a thief's door came into their sight.
02:22From where they could escape.
02:24According to the plan, they collected both the money and returned from the thief's door to the tents.
02:29In half an hour, they both came back the same way.
02:33Bilaqa Khan stabbed himself and injured him with another dagger and started making noise.
02:38At the sound of the noise, the gathering in the other room stopped and many people moved towards it.
02:44When other people saw the situation there, they stood up.
02:48They immediately informed the Kotawali.
02:50As soon as the Mongols were informed of the attack, the Kotawali rushed there.
02:55Bilaqa Khan told the Kotawali all the details of how Abu Dawood called him there
03:00and made a murderous attack on him on the pretext of giving money.
03:03The matter of collecting the money had gone round.
03:06The Kotawali searched there.
03:08There was no money there.
03:10Other people's statements made it clear that the four of them had been seen going to that room.
03:16No one knew where the masked men came from.
03:20The situation was going in Bilaqa Khan's favor.
03:23Bilaqa Khan was allowed to go back after a little interrogation.
03:28Bilaqa Khan had succeeded in fulfilling his wish.
03:31He was proven innocent and with all his money, he had also become the owner of Abu Dawood's assets.
03:38Abu Dawood was extremely greedy and deceptive.
03:42The man who had bought the slave with the black eye was a resident of Hammad.
03:47His trade was his profession.
03:49He was a very pure and honest man.
03:52His name was Alauddin Banqadari.
03:54He had come to Damascus to sell silk-threaded earrings.
03:58He was not very well known among the people of Damascus.
04:01He had married twice, but nature did not allow him to live a married life.
04:06One after the other, a wife became sick and she was given a sedative.
04:11He had been living a lonely life for the past three years.
04:14Along with his wife, he could not even have a blessing like a child.
04:18He was a happy man in his condition.
04:21Making compromises with the situation had become his nature.
04:24He had reached there on the day of the auction in the afternoon.
04:27His purpose was not to buy a slave because he was not so rich that he could buy a slave at an expensive price.
04:33The whole day passed there.
04:35When his slave's auction was canceled due to eye damage,
04:38he just stood there in amazement to see what would happen next.
04:42Then when evening fell and the slave could not be auctioned,
04:46he felt sympathy for him in his heart.
04:49He knew how these slave traders treated unsellable slaves.
04:54Inhuman beatings and insults become their destiny.
04:58He prayed in his heart that if possible, he would do something for him.
05:02Then his prayer reached the level of acceptance and he himself became his master.
05:07He took him to the inn where he was staying.
05:11He did not talk to that boy at all.
05:14When he reached the inn, he pointed to one side.
05:18That boy was extremely happy despite the eye injury.
05:22His confused face tore the heart of the slave.
05:25I don't know why today he remembered his children so intensely.
05:30He shook his thoughts and turned towards him.
05:33Boy, you know that I am your master from today.
05:37The boy shook his head in confusion.
05:39What is your name?
05:41Mehmood
05:42He heard a shivering voice.
05:44Oh, you are a Muslim.
05:46He shook his head again.
05:48Where do you live?
05:49Far away from here, in the valley of Qichak.
05:52You understand Arabic, you can even speak it.
05:54A little bit.
05:55Very good.
05:56Alauddin smiled.
05:58Will you eat?
05:59I am sure you will eat.
06:00I have been watching you all day.
06:02That boy did not say anything.
06:04Alauddin ordered food and then they both sat together and started eating in the same plate.
06:09After eating, Alauddin gave him a mat to sleep on.
06:13He lay on the mat and started snoring.
06:16Alauddin kept staring at the roof lying on his bed.
06:19As if sleep had disappeared from his eyes.
06:22His mind was constantly on Mehmood.
06:25He was lost in all kinds of thoughts.
06:28He did not know when he fell asleep.
06:30A few days later, he returned to Hammad after completing his work in Damascus.
06:34Mehmood also stayed with him.
06:37As time passed, Mehmood was very impressed with the attitude of his master Banqadari.
06:42He had heard that slaves are treated very cruelly.
06:46But while living with Banqadari, he was given parental love.
06:50He especially took good care of him.
06:53Days turned into months and months turned into years.
06:56Mehmood learned to speak Arabic in an excellent way over time.
07:00Banqadari also gave him an ordinary education.
07:03Mehmood kept going to different areas with his master for the purpose of trading.
07:07Mehmood was happy-go-lucky and had a good temper and a special intelligence.
07:11While traveling to different cities, a quality that was born in him was that
07:16Mehmood had a desire to learn the languages of other areas.
07:20Soon he learned Arabic, Egyptian, Abyssinian, and Turkish.
07:24He spoke very fluently in different languages like a native speaker.
07:29Banqadari was very happy with this quality of Mehmood.
07:32His trade began to increase day by day.
07:34Mehmood used to talk to the merchants in the local language with skill instead of his master.
07:40Banqadari achieved an outstanding success in the trade of silk threads,
07:44excellent carpets, hot spices and expensive clothes.
07:48In 633 Hijri, Banqadari's trade caravan was passing near the border of Syria
07:53near a fort called Musyaf, when the inner tribes of the fort attacked it
07:58and looted all the goods and resources.
08:00The caravan's men were killed one by one.
08:04Banqadari was severely injured in this attack and Mehmood managed to put him on an Arab horse and escape.
08:12Injured, he was brought back to Hammad.
08:15Mehmood left no stone unturned in his care.
08:18After two months of continuous treatment, he fully recovered.
08:22In that bad time, all the savings in the house were spent.
08:27Banqadari felt very strongly about Mehmood's service.
08:31The turmoil of the situation had thrown Banqadari into the abyss.
08:35The inner tribes had looted all his assets.
08:39He had nothing left for further trade.
08:42If there was anything left, it was the old branch.
08:45Banqadari established a connection with Umar, but nothing could be done.
08:49Umar had faith in Banqadari's ability, but if he was looted again,
08:54he would find it impossible to get his money back.
08:57During this period, only one person became the medicine for the pain.
09:01His name was Ali bin al-Wurqa.
09:03He was a very wealthy rich man of Hammad.
09:06His relations with the merchants and the government officials were also very good.
09:11He had been a friend of Banqadari for a long time,
09:14but there was never a time when relations could be maintained.
09:18Ali bin al-Wurqa had become closer to Banqadari than two years ago.
09:22The reason for this was not Banqadari, but Mehmood.
09:25Seeing the white-haired Mehmood, he had a bad thought
09:29that why he was not the owner of such a white-haired slave.
09:33In addition to this, he was jealous of his abilities.
09:37Ali bin al-Wurqa had a desire in his heart for a long time
09:40that Banqadari should sell Mehmood to him,
09:43but Banqadari cherished Mehmood like his own son.
09:47One day, Ali bin al-Wurqa went to Banqadari in the early morning.
09:51Banqadari welcomed him very warmly.
09:54The two of them sat down and Ali bin al-Wurqa asked about Mehmood.
09:58I don't see your slave.
10:00He has gone to the mosque.
10:03After the prayer, he had to bring some things to eat on the way back.
10:07Banqadari said to Ali bin al-Wurqa,
10:10You have now become healthy.
10:12I think you should pay more attention to your business.
10:16I know that you have also become very rich.
10:19No, it's just a matter of fate.
10:21I am thinking of trading cotton this time.
10:24Winter is coming.
10:26In these days, the quantity of cotton in Egypt decreases.
10:29Banqadari said,
10:31But cotton is becoming very expensive.
10:33You do one thing.
10:34Take your old work, i.e. the silk-threaded tools.
10:37You have experience in this work,
10:39and I hope you will be successful.
10:42No, Banqadari nodded in no.
10:45This season is not for silk-threaded tools.
10:48In this case, only cotton will be right.
10:50But where will you get the money for cotton?
10:53When you are already bankrupt?
10:55Ali bin al-Wurqa asked,
10:56Don't worry.
10:57Allah is very kind.
10:59I have spoken to two merchants.
11:01I hope they will lend me some money for a while.
11:04Banqadari replied,
11:06Banqadari!
11:07Ali bin al-Wurqa thought and said,
11:09You know very well that I am a very pure man.
11:12I say what is in my heart.
11:15You also know very well that
11:17I am of no use to anyone,
11:19but I don't know why my heart says
11:21that I should somehow get you out of this tough time.
11:24Ibn al-Wurqa!
11:25Banqadari listened to him and smiled.
11:28I appreciate your passion from the bottom of my heart
11:31and I am grateful.
11:32Your courage is enough for me.
11:34This habit of yours makes my heart tremble.
11:37You do one thing.
11:38Take some money from me as a loan
11:40and buy cotton at a cash price.
11:42I think you will benefit from the cash purchase
11:45as compared to the loan.
11:46Ali bin al-Wurqa proposed.
11:48What will be your benefit in this?
11:50Look, don't be jealous now.
11:53I am giving you this money as a loan,
11:55not for any benefit.
11:57Ali bin al-Wurqa said angrily.
11:59Look, Ibn al-Wurqa!
12:01Banqadari said seriously.
12:03I am already indebted.
12:05It is not a bad thing to take a loan in business,
12:07but taking a loan from a friend is
12:09akin to wasting relationships.
12:12I appreciate your good feelings,
12:15but I am sorry to take a loan from you.
12:17Brother!
12:18Ali bin al-Wurqa said quickly.
12:20There is no doubt about this.
12:22A good friendship is destroyed by a loan.
12:24But this only happens when
12:26the lender does not intend to repay the loan.
12:28I know you very well,
12:30but I do not want to take a loan from my friends.
12:33This is not a matter of friendship,
12:35but I think you are being stubborn for no reason.
12:38Ali bin al-Wurqa extended a pouch to his side.
12:41Banqadari looked at him with astonished eyes.
12:44What is this?
12:45This is a small loan of five hundred dinars
12:47from a friend to get you organized
12:49with a new head.
12:51Consider it a gift.
12:53You will be able to regain the position
12:55that you have lost in an accident.
12:57Ali bin al-Wurqa was amazed.
13:00But…
13:01You will not say a word now.
13:03Ali bin al-Wurqa said in a decisive tone.
13:06I do not want what you want.
13:08Still, if you insist that I take a loan from you,
13:10it can only be in one form.
13:12You become a partner in this business of mine.
13:15Whatever I get in the form of interest,
13:17you will have to take it in half.
13:19I did not lend you with the intention
13:21that I take a share in it in the form of interest.
13:23This is my final decision.
13:24Otherwise, I am unable to take a loan from you.
13:27Banqadari was stunned.
13:29Ali bin al-Wurqa became silent.
13:31Okay, fine.
13:32If this is what you want, then so be it.
13:34Ali bin al-Wurqa put down his weapon.
13:36They talked for a while.
13:38After that, Ali bin al-Wurqa took leave
13:40and returned.
13:42Banqadari did not know why he did not believe
13:44that Ali bin al-Wurqa had given him
13:46this loan with a sincere intention.
13:48He thought it inappropriate to think
13:50about this matter any longer
13:52On the same day, he met the traders
13:54of cotton in Damascus and collected
13:56a lot of money.
13:58Two or three weeks passed in preparation.
14:00Half of the money was paid,
14:02while half of the responsibilities
14:04were left to him.
14:06On the fifth week, he set off.
14:08A small caravan left for Egypt
14:10in the building of Banqadari.
14:12In 1097, at the request of the Byzantine
14:14emperor Alexis Komnenos, Pope Urban II
14:16wrote a letter to Calrimo,
14:18the capital of southern France,
14:20in which he gave a passionate speech
14:22on the issue of freeing the Holy Land
14:24from the Muslims.
14:26By the spring season,
14:28about 150,000 Christians
14:30took part in this sermon.
14:32They chose the cross as their symbol,
14:34which later became their identity.
14:36The series of their battles
14:38was known as the Crusades.
14:40They now crossed the Nile from
14:42Constantinople and captured Nicaea.
14:44After that, they conquered Dorylaeum.
14:46After passing through the
14:48city of Tarsus,
14:50they entered the Arab regions,
14:52where the conflict between them began.
14:54Every leader was determined
14:56to get what he wanted.
14:58Baldwin of Lotharingia
15:00led a crusader group
15:02and captured Aradha
15:04from the eastern side.
15:06It was captured here in 1098
15:08and thus laid the foundation
15:10for the first Latin Empire.
15:12Baldwin went on to become
15:14the second king of Jerusalem.
15:16The second group of the Crusaders
15:18entered Silesia
15:20from the western side
15:22under the leadership
15:24of a normal commander,
15:26Tancred.
15:28He was advancing
15:30in the areas of Tartus
15:32and Girdunawa
15:34that he had to stop
15:36near Antioch
15:38in front of a Muslim
15:40Suljuk prince,
15:42Yaghisyan.
15:44The population of Silesia
15:46was subjugated
15:48and the city was burned.
15:50A part of the Crusader army
15:52advanced under the leadership
15:54of Count Rima
15:56in the Assi Valley.
15:58He was a wealthy
16:00and influential crusader
16:02who belonged to France.
16:04He advanced southward
16:06and burned the city
16:08of Moratunnauman.
16:10This was the home of
16:12the famous poet Nabina.
16:14He took control of
16:16the city of Hissan al-Karath
16:18and later established
16:20a new Crusader settlement
16:22in a vast plain
16:24which was located
16:26on the banks of the Assi River.
16:28This new city was named
16:30Creek de Chollerser.
16:32Here, according to a Christian tradition,
16:34the historical church of
16:36Al-Nasirah was built,
16:38which later became
16:40a Christian church.
16:42Later, Al-Nasirah was
16:44ascribed to a Christian
16:46and its status was increased.
16:48The crusades of these
16:50crusaders continued.
16:52After Arraha,
16:54Adesya, Antioch,
16:56Jerusalem,
16:58Akka, Surah Tarabulus,
17:00Ashyam and many other cities
17:02were taken.
17:04There, the market of
17:06murder and looting was
17:08not as quiet as before.
17:10The Muslims of Palestine,
17:12Syria and Lebanon were
17:14subjected to a very delicate
17:16time. For many years,
17:18they were crushed by
17:20the Christian brutal
17:22tyrants. Finally, the
17:24dignity of the truth was
17:26moved and a small Muslim
17:28ruler was brought
17:30against them.
17:32This was the ruler
17:34of the Mujahid-Halab and
17:36he could not continue his
17:38mission and in 541 AH,
17:401146 AD,
17:42an unfortunate slave
17:44killed him.
17:46Nature did not accept
17:48the end of this mission.
17:50Instead, his son Nur-ud-Din
17:52Zangi was elected and he
17:54continued his father's work.
17:56Where the Crusaders were
17:58happy with the death of
18:00Amad-ud-Din, their happiness
18:02was once again diminished.
18:04Amad-ud-Din wanted to free
18:06his people from the
18:08brutal tyrants, but he
18:10took 1173 AD in his heart
18:12and left the mortal world.
18:14His nephew, Salah-ud-Din
18:16Ayyubi, continued his mission
18:18and took it from the
18:20Bait-ul-Maqdis Crusaders.
18:22Ninety years later,
18:24this area was returned
18:26to the Muslims.
18:28After the death of Salah-ud-Din
18:30Ayyubi, his successors
18:32in the Crusades.
18:34All the sons of Salah-ud-Din
18:36Ayyubi were busy in the
18:38battle of power.
18:40This was a golden opportunity
18:42for the Crusaders.
18:44They advanced towards
18:46Beirut.
18:48Salah-ud-Din Ayyubi's uncle
18:50Malik-ul-Adil, the governor
18:52of Kirk, was aware of the
18:54situation and he quickly
18:56advanced and stopped
18:58the Crusader army near
19:00Beirut.
19:02In 601 A.D.
19:04that is, in 1203 A.D.
19:06on the invitation of
19:08Pope Anicent III,
19:10the people of Europe
19:12planned the Fifth Crusade,
19:14but instead of entering
19:16Palestine, they entered
19:18Constantinople and
19:20returned to their
19:22fellow country,
19:24the Byzantine Empire.
19:26In 613 A.D.
19:28Malik-ul-Adil was in Syria
19:30at that time.
19:32The Crusader army
19:34besieged Ramyad.
19:36Malik-ul-Adil stopped
19:38the way of Egypt with
19:40a large army, but he
19:42received a message on
19:44the way and he was
19:46freed from the
19:48mortal world in 615 A.D.
19:50His son Nasir-ud-Din
19:52Muhammad Malik-ul-Kamil
19:54fulfilled his goal of
19:56conquering Ramyad.
19:58He besieged the
20:00Caliphs of Ramyad
20:02when they were moving
20:04towards Cairo after
20:06conquering Damyad.
