00:00In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
00:07Ruknuddin Baybars
00:10A great conqueror of the Islamic world
00:13Who was in front of the Mongols
00:18Sultan Baybars had broken the back of the Mongols in the first five years of his rule
00:23He had crushed their power in front of him
00:26Even the dead and his wife were dead
00:28With this, the Mongols started to accept Islam very quickly
00:32Therefore, Sultan Baybars, along with the Romans, paid attention to the fortifications of the Crusaders
00:37The most important fortifications in these fortifications were
00:39Qisariya, Arsuf, Safad, Al-Qarq, Balfour, Yafa, Antartus, Antakya, Hassan Laqrad, Al-Muraqqab, Sur, Talabras, Beirut, Sida, and Akka
00:55These were the fortifications that the great son of the Islamic world, Sultan Salahuddin had snatched from the Nusrani
01:03But after the death of Sultan Salahuddin
01:05When the weaknesses of the Muslims became visible
01:08Then with the help of the Christians of Europe, the Crusaders again captured these fortifications
01:13And taking advantage of the weakness of the Muslims
01:15By strengthening and stabilizing them
01:17In a way, they left these fortifications and started to torment the Muslims for a long time
01:23These Crusaders, who had a tough war, were the worst enemies of the Muslims
01:28They had made their oppressed race and the Muslims of their territory to live in a double standard
01:34To the extent that in the madness of Muslim enmity
01:37A large number of them had also joined the Gharatghar army of the destroyers
01:41And they showed more terror than the Mongols in occupying the Muslim territories and massacring the helpless Muslims
01:49Now the Sultan was free from the Gharatghar and the Mongols
01:53He had broken his back
01:55And he did not allow them to come in action against the Muslims
02:00Therefore, the Sultan now turned his military force towards them
02:04Until now, the Sultan's power had also increased
02:07He united Egypt and Syria
02:10He also revived the Abbasid Caliphate
02:13And he also established a strong and stable foundation for the country
02:18After getting rid of all these things
02:20He turned towards the Crusaders of Syria, Palestine and Lebanon
02:24Who had not only built a temporary fortified wall on the entire coast
02:29In fact, they had also occupied many other places
02:32The Christians had large armies in these fortifications
02:35These armies not only attacked the nearby Muslims from these fortifications
02:39They also killed and looted them
02:42In fact, apart from the rulers of Europe
02:44They also incited Papyrus to attack Egypt
02:48In this way, the presence of Palestine, Lebanon and Syria
02:53Was like a dagger in the heart of Islam
02:57After Sultan Salahuddin Ayyubi
02:59When these people occupied these fortifications
03:02And took advantage of the weakness of the Muslims
03:04Then they became tyrants
03:05They thought that no Muslim ruler would be able to take these fortifications from them
03:10And they would take out the Muslims from Palestine by occupying other areas
03:17This was a very delicate time for the Muslims
03:19The Muslims were hoping that
03:21To compete with the Crusaders of Lebanon, Palestine and Syria
03:25Nature would create another Salahuddin for them
03:28Maybe nature fulfilled this desire of the Muslims
03:31And Sultan Baybars became the second Salahuddin
03:35And he planned to bring these warlords to the Caliphate
03:39Nature gave them a lot of freedom
03:42To get rid of their tyranny
03:44But they did not learn any lesson
03:46But when nature made Sultan Baybars the second Salahuddin
03:50And made him stand in front of them
03:51Then all their plans and intentions were ruined
03:56All the historians of the East and the West agree on this
04:00That Sultan Baybars' Jihad against the Crusaders
04:03Was similar to the attacks of Sultan Salahuddin and the Turks
04:07The historians of the East and the West
04:09Not only gave space to these attacks in the history
04:12But they also tried to reduce the importance of Sultan Baybars
04:17And his bravery
04:19The historians of the East and the West
04:21Accept Sultan Baybars as a great conqueror
04:23But at the same time they try to prove him as a tyrant and a traitor
04:28But the historians of the East and the West
04:30Rejected their allegations
04:31And presented Sultan Baybars' attack against the Crusaders
04:35Finally, Sultan Baybars left Cairo with his army
04:39To attack the Crusaders and the Crusaders
04:43After entering Palestine
04:45He moved to the northern areas with great speed
04:48The Crusaders thought that the Sultan of the Muslims
04:51Will either move to Lebanon
04:53Or will attack Antakya or Beirut
04:56And they hoped that there are big Crusader armies in Beirut or Antakya
05:01And Sultan Baybars will not be able to defeat them
05:06Therefore, they were satisfied and happy
05:09But at this time, the Crusaders were shocked
05:11When Sultan Baybars suddenly turned at night
05:16Like a storm, he turned south
05:19And in the south, he turned towards Al-Qarq
05:22Al-Qarq was an ancient fort
05:26And there were very few Crusaders on it
05:29Even during the reign of Sultan Salahuddin
05:31The Crusaders were occupying this fort
05:34And the Crusaders who lived in this fort
05:37Always used to make their profession as Muslim Azari and Gharatgari
05:42These were the people who attacked the caravans of Hajis
05:46Who were going to Hijaz from Egypt
05:50And killed them
05:52The caravans of Hajis were the main target of their bloodshed
05:56The way to Hijaz from Egypt used to pass through Al-Qarq
06:01So if a caravan of Muslims or a caravan of Hajis passed through here
06:06The Crusaders would attack them like hungry wolves
06:12They would kill Muslims and loot their resources
06:15The Crusaders in Al-Qarq were hoping that
06:19The Sultan of Muslims has left for the north with his army
06:24But suddenly one day, the Sultan appeared in front of them with his army
06:29And they were shocked
06:31Although they had controlled the city
06:36There was a large army in the city
06:38But when the Sultan attacked in his own way
06:41He took out all the forts of the Crusaders
06:44The Sultan entered Al-Qarq conquering the city with the power of his sword
06:49The Sultan was informed that
06:51The Crusaders had built a fort called Nasira in Al-Qarq
06:54It was a historical fort
06:56And they had made this fort the center of their war history
07:00The Sultan destroyed this fort
07:03And made Al-Qarq as fertile as the land
07:06After this, Al-Qarq could not become the center of the Crusaders
07:10And the caravans of Hajis were safe from the evil of the Crusaders
07:15After the conquest of Al-Qarq
07:17The Sultan went to Egypt with his army
07:20He spent a few months in silence
07:23He kept preparing
07:25On the other hand, the Crusaders were sure that
07:27The Sultan of Muslims wanted to conquer Al-Qarq
07:30So he returned
07:32But this silence of the Sultan was indicating the arrival of a new storm
07:36After a few months
07:38The Sultan left with his army
07:40And entered Palestine
07:42After leaving Egypt
07:45The Crusaders were ready to face the Sultan
07:51And they were keeping an eye on the Sultan's every move
07:54This time, the Sultan surprised the Crusaders
07:57The Sultan made a long circle and cut the Kaaba
08:00The Crusaders did not understand what the Sultan wanted to do
08:03Suddenly, like a storm, the Sultan appeared in front of the city of Caesarea
08:09This city was written in the style of Caesarea and Caesar
08:14This city was written in the style of Caesarea and Caesar
08:18Although this city is deserted now
08:21But in the distant past, it was considered a strong fortified city
08:27The Sultan surrounded Caesarea
08:29The army in Caesarea did not give any importance to the attack of the Sultan
08:34Because this city of Caesarea was an important port and a strong center of the Crusaders
08:39The Sultan thought that Al-Qarq's strong fort had collapsed in front of the Muslims
08:46But the Muslims will not be able to conquer Caesarea
08:49Caesarea and other such forts were turned into a dry land in the form of all ports
08:55In terms of defense, it was beneficial that if the Muslims were besieged by the dry land
09:00The way to the sea remained open
09:03These Crusaders were in contact with Europe through the sea
09:07In addition to this, fresh wine from Europe, herbs and necessities were also received by these people
09:14Large towers were built at the places of entry into these ports
09:19Through which the fort and city were protected
09:23Such towers are still present on the coasts of Lebanon and Palestine
09:28Caesarea was considered extremely important from the forts of the Crusaders
09:32The army in the fort was determined to fight the Sultan
09:37The Crusaders of Caesarea hoped that they would get help from other Crusader forts against the Sultan
09:43But the Sultan attacked the fort with such extraordinary intelligence and military skill
09:49That the Crusaders were stunned
09:51The Sultan first besieged Caesarea
09:53During this siege, the Crusaders of Caesarea could not get any help from any other side
09:58In this way, after a seven-day bloody battle, they became helpless
10:02They put their weapons in front of the Sultan with extreme humility and humiliation
10:07And the Sultan entered Caesarea as a conqueror
10:10The fort built by the Crusaders in the city was destroyed by the Sultan
10:15And dug up to the base of the fort
10:19After the siege of Caesarea, the Sultan fortified its defenses in such a way
10:26That the Crusaders never had the courage to return to this side
10:31After fortification of Caesarea and conquering the city
10:35Now Sultan Baybars headed south
10:38He advanced very fast
10:40He headed for another strong fort of the Crusaders, Arsuf
10:45The Sultan advanced and besieged Arsuf with his army
10:49Arsuf was the center of the Hospitallers and was considered their stronghold
10:54These Hospitallers were considered a stronghold of the Crusaders
11:00And they also participated in the Crusades
11:03After seeing the end of the city of Caesarea, the Crusaders of Arsuf
11:06To compete with the Sultan, they launched their war preparations
11:10The Sultan started attacks on them
11:13And began to destroy their fortifications
11:17Then the Hospitallers were very worried
11:20Finally, the Sultan broke the fort of the Hospitallers and entered
11:25The Sultan destroyed the fort of Caesarea
11:29The Sultan broke the fort from its bricks
11:32And destroyed the strong forts of this fort
11:37After conquering Arsuf, the Sultan went to Cairo
11:40The Crusaders thought that the Sultan would not attack Palestine again and again
11:45But they were shocked
11:47After a few months, in 1266, the Sultan returned to Palestine with his army
11:54The Sultan advanced and besieged this fort of the Crusaders
12:00Which was called Safad
12:03It is said that this fort was at a special height
12:06Deep trenches were dug under it
12:09Which were considered impossible to cross
12:13In this fort, the Haikalites lived in large numbers
12:16They considered themselves impossible to cross
12:18It was a group of Templars
12:20They were very clever people
12:22They lived near Haikal-e-Sulemani in Jerusalem
12:24That's why the Templars or Haikalites became famous
12:27Initially, their purpose was only to serve the people
12:30But gradually, it became a Haikalite sect
12:34And it made the Muslim enmity its stronghold
12:37All of them decided to unite and compete with the Sultan of the Muslims
12:42And they will not let them occupy Safad
12:44But maybe they were not aware of the Sultan's power, strength and the way of attacking
12:51When the Sultan besieged their fort
12:54When he attacked them
12:57The ground began to fall from the feet of these Haikalite warriors
13:01The corpses of these Haikalite warriors began to scatter due to the attacks of the Sultan
13:05The Sultan even conquered the city by attacking
13:09When the Sultan entered the city
13:11The rebels put their weapons in front of the Sultan
13:14The Sultan entered the fort and gave complete security to the common citizens
13:19He ordered them to stay in their homes
13:21No one will attack them
13:23Their lives were not in danger
13:25But there were about 2000 Haikalite warriors left in Safad
13:30Who had made the enmity of the Muslims their profession
13:33The Sultan did not forgive them
13:35And he ordered to kill these 2000 Haikalite warriors
13:39The Sultan treated them in such a way
13:42That they lived in a peaceful and safe area of Safad
13:47Most of the time they were attacked
13:49They were massacred
13:51They were looted
13:53Their houses were burnt
13:55And some were arrested and taken with them
13:57And they were tortured
14:00According to the Sultan, this crime was unforgivable
14:04That's why he ordered to kill them all
14:08On the conquest of Safad
14:10The Muslims gave the titles of Amaduddin and Sikandar-e-Zama to the Sultan
14:15And according to the famous historian Philip
14:17There is a book on the history of Safad
14:20On which it is written
14:22Sikandar-e-Zama Amaduddin
14:24After conquering Safad
14:26The Sultan did a great job of Rafa'a-e-Ama
14:30He built a magnificent bridge on the river Urdan
14:33After the construction of this bridge
14:35The Sultan also built a book there
14:37Historians write that
14:39Because the river Urdan changed its direction in the coming period
14:42However, the bridge built by Sultan Baybars is still present
14:46But now it is on dry land
14:48After conquering Safad
14:50Sultan Baybars turned towards the famous city of Palestine
14:53Yafah
14:55The present name of Yafah is Til-Abib
14:57And it is the capital of the Zionist state of Israel
15:01Sultan Baybars left Cairo with his army
15:04And went straight to Yafah
15:06These days Yafah was a very big center of the Crusaders
15:10They fought against Sultan Baybars
15:14They wanted Yafah to be taken from them
15:18But Sultan Baybars showed such courage and bravery
15:22And started attacking Yafah with his army
15:25Sultan Baybars could not tolerate the 12-hour battle of Yafah
15:30And the Sultan conquered Yafah
15:32And the Sultan waved his flag on the fort
15:36After conquering Yafah
15:38Sultan Baybars went to a very important fort with his army
15:41Saqif Arnon
15:43This city and fort is located between Damascus and the coast of the sea
15:47And is close to the city of Manial
15:50Arnon was the name of a person who had inhabited it
15:53So it was named Saqif Arnon
15:56It was a very strong fort
15:59Because it was located on a high mountain range
16:02Its strength increased
16:05This fort was located between Sur and Seda
16:09And was close to the southern gate of the city of Manial
16:14The importance of this fort was that it was the center of the Templars
16:19And they had accumulated so much military power and strength
16:23That it was considered unbeatable for two reasons
16:26The first reason was that it was located on a very high mountain range
16:29And the second reason was that it was the center of the Templars
16:34And they had accumulated all their strength here
16:37This fort was built on a limestone rock
16:40Its height was 1500 feet from the Litani River
16:43And it was 2199 feet high from the sea level
16:47One part of this fort was made of limestone
16:50And the other part was made of rock
16:53And because of these rocks, its strength increased
16:58It is said that the total width of this fort was about 490 square meters
17:03Its width was 99 feet, its height was 57 feet
17:08And its height was about 78 feet
17:12To the south and west part of this fort
17:15There was a very strong and stable log
17:18Which was made by cutting a strong rock
17:20This log was 48 feet deep from somewhere
17:22And its depth was about 144 feet
17:26Small chambers were made by cutting rocks in this log
17:29In which sweet springs of water were flowing
17:33The columnar walls of this fort were raised from the edge of the valleys
17:37And a high and stable tower was built on its corners
17:41The guards of this fort used to sit inside these towers and guard the fort
17:45Because of which the fort was considered to be inaccessible
17:48The width of this fort was considered that it could not be broken
17:53Nor could any part of it be demolished and entered
17:58Because most of the width was on the rocks
18:01Which were given the shape of the width of the column
18:05And some parts were made of such large stones
18:07It was said that there was no question of demolishing them and entering the city
18:11The large and stable towers of stones on the walls
18:14The warriors kept piles of arrows and stones inside them
18:19And the attackers were forced to retreat by raining stones and arrows
18:25The warriors of this fort thought that
18:28In normal circumstances, it was impossible to capture this fort
18:31On this, the idea of attacking seemed to be a crazy dream
18:34But sometimes such warriors, such incompetent rulers also stand up
18:38Who are born only to make the impossible possible
18:41This was the condition of Sultan Baybars
18:44On April 12, 1868, the Sultan was struggling with his army
18:49And suddenly he appeared in front of this fort
18:54When the Sultan started attacking the fort
18:57The Crusaders inside the fort fought the Sultan
19:01The Sultan also knew the advantages of this fort
19:04Therefore, the Sultan quickly started his last work
19:07After a while of war, the Sultan stopped the war
19:11Suddenly, the Muslims were attacked
19:14And as soon as the Sultan ordered, about 26 large warriors of the fort were assembled
19:20Seeing this situation, the Crusaders inside the fort were shocked
19:24When they saw such a large number of warriors, they were stunned
19:29The Sultan first examined the fort
19:32After this, he himself ordered to set up fortifications in suitable places
19:36As soon as the Sultan's order was received, fortifications were set up in this place
19:41Where the Sultan had said
19:43After this, when the rain of large and heavy stones began to fall on the fort
19:49Then this heavy rain not only shook the fort, but also the rocks
19:55To conquer the fort quickly, Sultan Baybars took two steps
19:59First, he started the siege of the fort with the help of large warriors
20:06Second, he surrounded the fort so hard
20:09That he closed all the roads leading to the fort
20:13And the people of the fort did not expect anything from the outside
20:16As a result of these two steps of the Sultan
20:19Gradually, the strength of the warriors of the fort was exhausted
20:23After this, they got scared
20:25Some of them had already been killed by the Sultan's fast and deadly attacks
20:30When the rest saw that if they continue to die like this
20:34Then one day the fort will be empty of them
20:36So they ran to the rear
20:38The coast was on the rear
20:40And they ran away from there
20:43In the same way, the Sultan entered the fort as a conqueror
20:46And the Sultan ordered to set up his flag on its highest peak
20:51After the conquest of this fort by the name of Saqif Anun
20:53The number of Crusader warriors in Palestine
20:56They had a big headache
20:58And Sultan Baybars had a kind of terror on them
21:02And they heard the name of the Sultan and started shivering with fear
21:07In Palestine, these magnificent and continuous victories
21:11Had raised the morale of the armies of Sultan Baybars
21:14And they were determined to liberate this piece of land from the Crusaders forever
21:19As Sultan Baybars had a great heart in his army
21:23So his army was ready to die at his behest
21:27And after conquering Anun
21:29The Sultan headed to a very large fort of the Crusaders and the city of Tripoli
21:33Because of these continuous victories of the Sultan
21:36All coastal areas of the Crusaders were busy in preparing for war
21:40Because no one had any knowledge
21:42That who will be the target of Sultan Baybars
21:46Then one day the Sultan reached Tripoli with his army
21:50And he led his army out of the city
21:53On which the people of Tripoli understood that it was their turn
21:56Tripoli was a strong center and fort of the Crusaders
22:00And they had a huge military force there
22:03And they closed the fort and got ready for a long war with the Muslims
22:07These days Tripoli was a very important city
22:10Because it was considered one of the most important cities in terms of development
22:14From Aleppo city to Tripoli
22:16There were gardens and trees all around the city
22:21Here sugarcane was grown in abundance
22:24Apart from this orange, orange, banana, lemon and dates were very good
22:28Apart from this Tripoli was populated in such a way
22:31That it had three sides of the sea and only one side was dry
22:35And when the time of drought came, the water of the sea reached the city of Pana
22:40The dry side of the sea was preserved by making a great ditch
22:44This ditch was located in the east of the city of Fasil
22:47And a very strong iron gate was built over it
22:52Apart from this, the city of Tripoli was made of very strong stones and clay
22:58And it was considered indestructible
23:01Large dams were also built inside and outside the city of Fasil
23:07When Sultan came to Tripoli with his army
23:10The people of Tripoli were ready to fight against the Sultan
23:14The people of Tripoli were also very brave
23:17Because the king of Antioch, Bohemond was also residing in Tripoli
23:21And he had come to Tripoli to consult the people of Tripoli
23:28The day the Sultan came to Tripoli with his army
23:32When the night came, the Sultan's informers informed the Sultan
23:36That the king of Antioch, Bohemond was also residing in Tripoli
23:40This news was very encouraging for the Sultan
23:42And he made a very big decision
23:44The Sultan had not yet besieged Tripoli
23:47He had led his army in front of Tripoli
23:50The next day when the people of Tripoli woke up
23:53They saw that the field in front of them, the Sultan had led his army
23:58It was completely empty
24:00The Sultan and his army were missing
24:02The people of Tripoli thought that the Sultan of the Muslims
24:05Has realized their military strength
24:08Therefore, he does not want to clash with them
24:10So he packed his bags and ran away from here
24:12But the Sultan had surprised the Crusaders
24:15The Sultan left with his army from there at night
24:19And the next day, a very big revolution took place in the northern part of Eastern Palestine
24:25Leaving Tripoli, the Sultan had decided to make Antioch his target
24:31The ruler of Antioch, Bohemond
24:33According to the famous historian Abul Fassa
24:36He was considered a very bad person
24:41And he did not want to give any chance to the Muslims to harm them
24:47Antioch was a very important city about 14 miles from the sea
24:53This city was inhabited by King Leocus I in 300 B.C.
24:58In 64 B.C. Roman Salaar Pampai attacked this city
25:05And it was captured
25:07After that, this city became the most important city of the Romans in Asia
25:11And also became the president of the Asian empire of the Roman Empire
25:15After that, the Iranians started attacking this city
25:18And for some time, this city was the center of Iranian attacks
25:22First of all, the Iranian King Shapur I
25:25In 258 B.C. and then in 260 B.C.
25:29Conquered this city
25:31And took out many people from here and settled them in other areas
25:37From 266 B.C. to 272 B.C.
25:40The queen of this city, Zanobia, was in control
25:44Despite these attacks, the city was maintained
25:47Finally, in 540 B.C.
25:49The Iranian King Noshirwa besieged this city
25:52Conquered it and completely destroyed it
25:57And took out the people from here and settled them in other areas
26:01After that, the Roman King Jatin settled this city again
26:05After that, the Romans were attacked and this city was captured by the Arabs
26:09And nowadays, this city is considered as a common city of East Turkey
26:14It is also said that Antakya has always been a famous city
26:18And is considered as a holy place for the Christians
26:22The Muslims first conquered this city during the reign of Farooq-e-Azam
26:27A few years later, the Greeks took it
26:30But very soon, it was captured by the Muslims
26:33After a long time, during the First Crusade
26:36The Crusaders attacked this city with full force
26:40And after a long siege of 7 months, they conquered this city
26:44This victory was also due to the betrayal of a non-Muslim Armenian, Feroz
26:49Who took the Crusaders inside the fort through a secret passage
26:53Till this time, this city was under the control of the Crusaders
26:56And here they had established a state
26:58And thus, Antakya was considered as a very big center of the Crusaders
27:02And a very important and stable city
27:06Sultan Baybars was determined to conquer this city
27:10Because this city was under the control of the Crusaders for almost 170 years
27:16This city was very prosperous and also very strong
27:20Because there were two large fields around this city
27:24Besides this, this city was also located on the banks of the Orenz River
27:29And all these things gave a lot of security to this city
27:34In this city, the holy places of the Nusrani were Azim-us-Shan, Girje and strong forts
27:40It is said that when Sultan Baybars attacked this city
27:43At that time, there was an army of 200,000 trained Crusaders in the city
27:47Besides this, there were many other people who were armed
27:50And had the best military training
27:53When Sultan Baybars suddenly appeared near the city of Antakya with his army
27:57The people of Antakya were shocked
27:59Because they had heard that the Sultan of the Muslims has headed for Tripoli
28:03And has besieged this city
28:05Hearing the siege of Tripoli, the people of Antakya were completely satisfied
28:09It was not even in their delusion that the threat was not on Tripoli
28:12It is hovering over their heads
28:14When Sultan Baybars stood near Tripoli
28:17And its news reached the people of Antakya
28:20So they thought that the Muslims would never dare to clash with the mighty well of Antakya
28:25But one day when they stood on the forts and fields
28:29They saw that a sea of flags was waving all around Antakya
28:34So they were amazed and shocked
28:39And these flags were of the army of Sultan Baybars
28:41And then this same army slowly came near the city of Antakya
28:46When the Muslims came near the city of Antakya
28:50And recited the Takbeers in one voice
28:52So these voices of Takbeers shook the city of Antakya to its foundations
28:57Sultan Baybars' attack on the city of Antakya was sudden, forceful and daring
29:02The Crusaders there tried their best to stop the Sultan and his army
29:08And did not let them enter the city of Antakya
29:10The people of Antakya were also thinking that the city of Antakya has a very large population
29:14It is indescribable
29:16In addition to this, there was another population in the outside population
29:20Which had made the stability of the city better
29:23But Sultan Baybars was also the one who was attacking on the other side
29:26Who knew the art of making the impossible possible
29:30Sultan Baybars made his first attack in such a forceful way
29:33That he shook the army of Antakya
29:36And in his first attack, Sultan Baybars was able to capture a part of Fasil
29:43When the Crusaders saw that the Muslims had started conquering the city
29:49And they have also captured a part of Fasil
29:53So he wanted to take out the Muslims from this area
29:59On which they had already been conquered
30:01But they were stunned
30:02They could not retreat from their place
30:07On this occasion, Sultan Baybars' attack on the army of Antakya took place
30:12As a result of this war, the Sultan entered the city with his army
30:18Now the war had begun in the streets of the city
30:22Blood began to flow in the streets of the city
30:24There were flasks of blood everywhere
30:26When the people of Antakya saw that the Muslims had entered their city
30:32So the army that was fighting the Muslims from the beginning
30:36They were continuing the war
30:38Now the other people were also attacking the Muslims
30:41On the other hand, the Sultan and his armies also realized that
30:44They were fighting their enemies hundreds of miles away from their homes
30:49So they started the war by covering their heads to kill the enemy
30:53The Muslim army also knew that if they were defeated in Antakya
30:59Then they will be safe in Egypt and Syria
31:04During the battle of Gamsan
31:06When the Muslim armies saw that Sultan Baybars was attacking the enemy
31:10In a very daring way
31:14Seeing this courage of the Sultan, the Muslim army left the city
31:19After this, the Muslim army continued the war in Antakya
31:29As a result of the holy war in the city, many Crusaders were killed
31:33When they estimated their army
31:36They saw that a large part of the army had been destroyed in the streets of their city
31:40If the war continues like this, the Muslims will kill their remaining armies
31:45So after consulting with each other
31:48The Umrah and Salars of Antakya put their weapons in front of the Sultan
31:51Accepted the defeat and prepared for obedience
31:54Sultan Baybars led Antakya to the east after the conquest of the city
31:58The oldest Roman state in the world ended forever
32:02The conquests that the Sultan had won against the Crusaders
32:07The conquest of Antakya was the biggest of these conquests
32:10Historians usually call this conquest as Fatah-ul-Fatuh
32:15Famous historian Abu al-Fida writes that
32:20In the battle of Antakya, about 16,000 Crusader armies were killed
32:28And about 100,000 of their armies were made prisoners of war
32:33Historians write that the price of a slave was 12 dirhams
32:37And a young girl was sold for 5 dirhams
32:40The Sultan got so much wealth from here
32:43That the Sultan distributed dirhams and dinars in his armies
32:48Western and Christian historians write about this war
32:53The Sultan set fire to all the old castles and forts in the city
32:57Some of them were famous
33:00But this is not the truth
33:02And neither is there any truth in their statements
33:04That's why there are old castles and forts in Antakya
33:08When Sultan Baybars was in Antakya
33:11At that time, the ruler of Antakya, Bohemond was in the city of Tripoli
33:15Being attacked in his absence, the Sultan conquered Antakya
33:19After conquering the city and taking all its arrangements in his hands
33:23The Sultan wrote a letter and sent it to the king of Antakya, Bohemond
33:29In this letter, the Sultan wrote
33:31None of your men survived in Antakya, which would inform you of the fate of this city
33:37That's why we ourselves fulfill this unacceptable duty
33:40All the people you were proud of have been martyred
33:44Because there is no one with you to express sympathy for their destruction
33:48That's why we are also fulfilling this duty of sympathy
33:51It is said that when Sultan Baybars received this letter from the king of Antakya, Bohemond in Tripoli
33:56He was furious when he heard the news of the conquest of Antakya
34:01He sent all these conditions to the different kings of Europe and Papyrus
34:06And asked them for help against Sultan Baybars
34:09But no one dared to confront the Sultan
34:12And disappointed, he left Tripoli and went to the cemetery
