Answer:

A. Saladin.

Step-by-step explanation:

He was a Sultan who led the Islamic forces during the Crusades and re-conquest the holy city of Jerusalem from the Europeans during the Second Crusades.

On the Third Crusades he lost many holly territories gained but by making a truce with King Richard Saladin was able to keep Jerusalem under Muslim control.

During the time of the Crusades, he and his army made several acts of compassion that showed the Muslim culture. One example of this was that after gaining control over Jerusalem; he allowed the Christian soldiers who were inside the city to flee safely with their belongings. Approximately 10,000 soldiers were granted departure and no blood was spared.

I hope this answer helps you.
