The aim of this study is to discuss the factors and reasons that enabled
Mamluks, the slaves whom had been bought and brought form various regions
of the World (Afghanistan, Pakistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, China and other
countries) unified despite their different languages and nationalities to unite
and to be in high positions, then to participate in decision making and finally
to seize power.
The political achievements of the AL- Ayyubid in Egypt and Great Syria
were crowned by their military achievement in defeating the Crusades in
Heteen Battle in 583/ 1187 which astonished the Europeans. But disputes
occurred after the death of Sultan Salah Al- Deen Al- Ayyubid when the
Al- Ayyubid started fighting each other and they allowed for the Mamaleek
to interfere in solving their problems. Al- Mamluks found a chance to plot
against the Ayuby home especially during the conflict between Salah Al-
Deen’s sons and their grandson of Al- Malek Al- Adel. Conspiracies made
them reach the power, appointing whoever they want and intriguing against
who opposed them. This high position in the power was demonstrated by what
happened between the two brothers, Al- Saleh Najm Al- Deen Ayob and Al-
Adel Al- Thany, which is led ultimately to Mamluks’ reigned after vanishing
the Ayuby state.
