Some ppl went too far comparing the greatest warrior da muslim could have Saladin, to Osama Bin Ladin. For those of u who are not familiar with Saladin, he was a great king and a fearless warrior who led the muslims recapture the holy city, Jerusalem. He fought the famous battle at the Acre against then king of England, Richard "The Lionheart". (Lion heart , did u even know da king had that nick name, and now dat u know are u gonna change it and come up with something new and original..lol)

So do u think such a man who has a great reputation in the muslim world and the gaalo world could be compared to Osama Bin Ladin.....iam just asking wat yor thoughts are about this comparison, and dont take away anything from Bin Ladin.

Osama is my Uncle hence the name uncle BIN But seriously its salehuddin al ayubbi not saladin

u must have watched tonite's religion worriors on pbs in which they said few ppl in the arab world compare b-laden to Salahudin

did you just watch the movie " kingdom heaven"

ERROR...I thought u resided in England.

Unclebin...thank u for the clarification.

What do i have to do with this? Are you trying to get CIA after me?

Seriously its wrong to compare Salahuddin bin Ayyub with that loser.

young nope

saladin, the two mean have sililaries although that doesn't mean they are the same. They are both claiming to defend Islam.

The only difference I saw was the word infedel was used against Muslims by the crusaders and the church @ saladin's time and now it is the other way around. Also, saladin spared all non-combatant christians while the church said killing a Muslim was your ticket to heaven. Now, bladen group say killing a non-muslim is your ticket to heaven.

bin ladin couldnt be compare with sayid cabdilah hassan let alone the one and only SALAHADIN!

What has Bin Laden for Muslims that's so great?
All he did was made lives from muslims in the west a living hell..

Any1 who compares who compares bin laden to Salahudiin is an idiot.

^^ i agree!

If you asked this question 3 or 4 years ago or so and before the americans invaded afghanistan, you would have probably goten a different answer from what you are reading here today. osama was the most important muslim figure on the planet to many ignorant muslims then. taliban got defeated, osama found hapiness living in the mountains of tora bora, iraq followed suit. osama is went down from hero to zero.

maybe if they didn't cheer him when the twin towers WENT down, osama wouldn't have gained all this fame. maybe you wouldn't have ever thought of comparing him to salaxudeen ayuubi, and this just maybe....

osama and ariel sharon did about the same for muslims

the biggest and most important difference between Osama and SALAHADIN is that the first one is an Arab and the latter is a Kurd that alone says a whole lot

now am not gonn say anything else about the "mighty arabs" so that i don't offend the few wahabists in here

Xoogsade, are u going to dat extent ...i mean c'mon....comparing a muslim person to dat YAHUUDI...Ilaahay kacabso dat is just lucarious and absurd walaahi.

Heey, heey, a man is only as good as his army...or his people in this case. Even if this Bin laden was some great guy...his people are nothing!! SO even if the likes of Selahedin were to rise they would be forced to flew to pakistan or Indonesia.
