Reading such books make aware of muslim's history is very essential for new generation. When Zangi’s father, the governor of Aleppo, was killed in 1094, Zangi fled to Mosul. He served the Seljuq dynasty, and in 1126 the Seljuq sultan, Maḥmud II, appointed Zangi governor of Basra. When the ʿAbbasid caliph al-Mustarshid rebelled in 1127, Zangi supported the sultan, and the victorious Maḥmud II rewarded Zangi by giving him the governorship of Mosul. Next, the key city of Aleppo submitted to Zangi’s authority to secure military protection against a possible Frankish Crusader conquest.

He was charged by the sultan with the duty of defeating the Christian Crusaders, and he saw himself as the champion of Islam.
