Sekuyinyanga egcwele kusukela ngifikile e-Amman, eJordani. Akukho okuye kwavuza njengokufunda umlando wabantu abaye baba nempucuko eyaqala cishe eminyakeni engu-3,000 XNUMX edlule.
Ngaba nethuba lokuya eningizimu yedolobha laseKarak, lapho isigodlo esisabekayo esakhiwa Amasosha Enkolo phakathi neminyaka engu-20 futhi saqedwa ngo-1161 AD sisekhona. Idolobha laseKarak kukhulunywa ngalo eBhayibhelini ngegama elithi Kiri Heresi lapho inkosi yakwa-Israyeli yake yavimbezela khona inkosi yakwaMowabi uMesha enqabeni yayo. Indaba ithi inkosi eyiqaba yayikhathazeke kakhulu yaze yanikela ngendodana yayo endala ezindongeni zenqaba, okwenza abavimbezeli bayeka ukuhlasela baphindela ekhaya. INkosi uMesha yabhala eyayo izenzakalo etsheni elibizwa ngokuthi iSitebele SakwaMesha kodwa yehluleka ukusho noma yikuphi ukunqotshwa, esikhundleni salokho yathi ixoshe abaphikisi bayo unomphela. Kwafika kimina ukuthi lesi kufanele kube esinye sezibonelo zokuqala zenkulumo-ze engqubuzanayo ehlanganisa impi.
Ihhovisi Lenxusa LaseMelika e-Amman lisingatha I-Boston Children's Chorus ekugubheni iminyaka engu-60 yobudlelwane base-US-Jordanian, libambe imidlalo ezindaweni eziningana okuhlanganisa ne-Castle e-Karak. Lapho ngingena enqabeni, umkami uMegan wezwa izingane zekhorasi zizilolongela ukuhlabelela izibusiso phezu komProfethi wethu, ukuthula kube kuye, nakuba kwakungamazwi aseYankee.
Kuzo zonke iziMpi Zenkolo, uKarak wazithola esesikhundleni esibalulekile njengoba kwakuyindawo yokuhlala yenkosi yaseTransjordan, ecebe kakhulu ngemikhiqizo nenzuzo yentela futhi ebaluleke kakhulu embusweni weCrusader. Ngokusobala, amaKristu namaSulumane ayehwebelana, ekhokhisa intela kubathengisi balabo ababemelene nabo kuyilapho amabutho abo ebhekene enkundleni yempi.
Isithombe esihlonipha uSaladin, umbusi waseSiriya naseGibhithe ekhulwini le-12, simi enkabeni yeKarak.
Ekuqaleni kwawo-1170, uReynald wase-Chatillon wazithola eyinkosi yaseTransjordan futhi wayaziwa ngezindlela zakhe zobudlabha kanye nezihluku zokuphatha iziboshwa zakhe. Ephula izivumelwano osekunesikhathi eside azenza, waqala ukuphanga nokubulala izihambeli zabavakashi ababeya eMecca waze wazama nokuhlasela amadolobha amabili angcwele amaSulumane eMecca naseMedina. Ebusika, uReynald waze waze wahlakaza umkhumbi omncane wabe esewuhambisa ngekamela wabuyela oLwandle Olubomvu, lapho ahlanganisa khona imikhumbi yakhe waqala ukugasela amachweba ase-Arabia. Ngethulwa okokuqala kulezi zindaba kusukela ezinsukwini zami zasekolishi lapho ngangivame ukudlala njengoSaladin kugeyimu yekhompyutha “yesu lesikhathi sangempela” ebizwa ngokuthi Age of Empires.
Umbusi waseSyria naseGibhithe, uSaladin (uSalah ad-Din ngesi-Arabhu noma “umlungisi wenkolo”) wasabela ngokushesha, ethatha idolobha laseKarak futhi wacishe wakwazi ukugasela enqabeni ukube kwakungengenxa yokuqina kweqhawe elilodwa elinamandla. avikele isango. Incwajana encane engayithatha e-Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities ilandisa ukuthi ngobusuku bokuhlasela, kwakunomshado esigodlweni: Indodana kaReynald yokutholwa yayishada nenkosazana yasebukhosini. Phakathi nemikhosi, uLady Stephanie, unina womkhwenyana, wathumela izitsha ezivela edilini kuSaladin owabuza ngokushesha ukuthi yimuphi umbhoshongo lo mbhangqwana osemusha owawuhlaliswe kuwo, eqondisa ukuqhuma kwamabhomu kwamaSulumane kuwo.
Lapho kufika impumuzo evela eJerusalema ukuvinjezelwa kwasuswa kodwa uReynald waqhubeka nokugebenga umahamba-nendlwana omkhulu futhi wathumba nodadewabo kaSaladin. Zombili lezi zenzo zenzeke ngaphansi kwesivumelwano sesikhathi sokuthula okwaholela empini yaseHattin eyaholela ekunqotshweni okuphelele kwebutho le-Crusader. USaladin wasindisa iziboshwa eziningi ngaphandle kukaReynald de Chatillon, ambulala ngaso leso sikhathi ngenxa yokukhohlisa kwakhe.
Ngaphandle kosizo lwebutho elihluliwe, abavikeli baseKarak baqhubeka bevimbezela isikhathi eside, bedla zonke izilwane ezingaphakathi kwenqaba futhi baze bathengisela abavimbezeli babo ukuze bathole isinkwa abesifazane babo nezingane ababengasenakuzondla. Ngemva kwezinyanga eziyisishiyagalombili, abasindile bokugcina banikela inqaba yabo kumaSulumane okwathi, ngokuqaphela isibindi sawo, abuyisela imikhaya yawo futhi avumela amaButho Enkolo ukuba ahambe ngokukhululeka.
Ngaphambi kokuphuma enqabeni, ngabona abanye besifazane baseMelika ababesanda kungena futhi ngathola ukuthi bangomama bezingane ezivela eBoston. I-Imam yaseJordani engangihlangane nayo enqabeni yangiphoqa ukuba ngibameme ukuze baziswe nge-Islam. Ngimhumushela, ngabatshela ukuthi inkolo yobuSulumane yayiyinkolo enokuthula ebiza umyalezo ofanayo owawuthunyelwe ngezilimi zabaprofethi nezithunywa zangaphambili ukuthi abantu akufanele bakhulekele omunye ngaphandle kukaNkulunkulu, futhi ngaqinisekisa inkolelo yamaSulumane yokuthi uJesu ungumesiya futhi uzobuya. ukungenisa ekupheleni kwesikhathi.
Ngabe sengithi ukuma kule ndawo ukukhuluma la mazwi kwakungubufakazi bokuthi zonke izinkolo zikhonza uNkulunkulu oyedwa, umdali nomlondolozi wendawo yonke. Owesifazane othile ngokukhethekile waqala ukukhala izinyembezi ezimbalwa futhi wacela isithombe nomkhaya wami.
Lapho ngilandisa uthisha wami wama-Arabhu ngalesi sigameko, wakhomba ivesi leQuran elithi, “futhi lapho belalela isambulo esitholwe yisiThunywa, uyobona amehlo abo echichima izinyembezi, ngoba bayalazi iqiniso. Bakhuleka bathi: 'Nkosi yethu! Siyakholwa, sibhalele phakathi kofakazi.
Into yokugcina engiyishilo kuye ngaphambi kokuba ngihambe yamenza wahleka. Yinto engayithatha kumfowethu okhuluma emasontweni aseKnoxville. Sithanda ukubheka i-Islam njengomyalezo wesithathu nowokugcina ku-trilogy owembulwe nguNkulunkulu ngokuphelele. "Uke wayibona i-Starwars, Ithemba Elisha?" Ngibuzile. “Uke wayibona i-Empire Ishaya Emuva? Hhayi-ke, ngeke uqonde yonke indaba uze ubuke ukuBuyisa kweJedi!
