Indeed, many believers become lost in the materialistic world power can provide. At the time, Egypt was wrought with rebellions and power vacuums. When he attacked the caravan, he mocked the Muslims by telling them to ask the Prophet (SAW) for intervention. His advisers suggested that funds earmarked for charity would be put to better use if diverted to the war effort.
If we want to create positive change and administer justice in the world, we do not need power. Asad ad-Din defeated the rogue Fatimid generals and gave power to as-Sa’di. Eventually, the people of Damascus invited Salâh ad-Deen to lead the nation. Reginald also attempted to attack the city of Mecca and threatened to move the grave of the Prophet (SAW).
By the will of Allah, it will continue to do so, as long as individuals hold fast to their Deen and follow the examples of those who suffered and triumphed before. Richard successfully routed Salâh ad-Deen’s army at the Battle of Arsuf in 588 AH/1191 CE. Salâh ad-Deen al-Ayubi would face off against Lionheart again at the Battle of Jaffa which ended in a three year truce.
Salâh ad-Deen had a keen interest for Islamic studies.
After gaining lordship in Egypt, Ibn Shaddad described how Salâh ad-Deen refocused his intentions:
The world and its pleasures lost all significance in his eyes. Therefore, Noor ad-Deen dispatched Asad ad-Din Shirkuh and Salâh ad-Deen al-Ayubi to support as-Sa’di against the Crusader-supported Fatimid generals. A week later, the Crusaders surrendered and on the terms that the Crusaders were to leave Jerusalem within forty days and pay a ransom of ten dinars for each man, five for each woman, and two for each boy.
Therefore, it is only reasonable that a unified Muslim Ummah could take it back. Multiple factors contributed to the European crusade against the Holy Lands.

Ibn Shaddad illustrated his determination:
He was regular in the performance of religious observances. The caliphate dismissed as-Sa’di from his post so he asked Noor ad-Deen for help, offering an annual tribute should he be able to gain power in Egypt. Outside of the battlefield, he was extremely generous to the poor and the needy.
