Saladın: The Conqueror of Jerusalem

In the 12th century during the Crusader invasions, Saladin, raised with a commitment to justice and the freedom of Jerusalem, leads the Serhad Ghazis against the Knights Templar besieging Ascalan, a key city for Jerusalem's defense. Despite the state council's refusal, Saladin defies orders to aid Ascalan, facing both external enemies and internal conflicts. Amidst the chaos, a love blossoms between Saladin and Süreyya, the daughter of Ascalan's Emir. As they navigate their forbidden romance and the challenges of war, the question remains:

At the end of the first season, Emir Saladin's disappearance forced Sultan Nureddin Zengi to lift the Siege of Jerusalem. Rescued by knight Balian, Saladin's journey saw him face slavery, rebellion, and pivotal battles in Egypt, where he rose to power as Vizier with the Fatimid Caliph's approval. Despite tensions with Nureddin Zengi's circle, Saladin solidified control over key cities like Damascus, Aleppo, and Cairo, laying the groundwork for the Ayyubid State. After defeating King Guy at Hattin, Saladin fulfilled his lifelong dream by reclaiming Jerusalem peacefully, earning admiration as the city's unchallenged conqueror.
