Notes
The tenth century AH, the sixteenth century AD, is considered an extension of the Crusades launched by the European West against the world in the name of geographical discoveries. The Mamluk state and the Ottoman state confronted these crusades led by the Portuguese, and Prince Hussein Kurdi had a major role in confronting these fierce campaigns against the Islamic East. He was the one who fought the Portuguese in the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean. He built the Jeddah Wall to protect the two holy cities: Mecca and Medina. Then he followed the Portuguese and entered with them two decisive battles. The first was the Battle of “Shol,” in which he was victorious, and the second was the “Naval Battle of Diu,” which eliminated the maritime influence of the Mamluks. The Mamluks, in cooperation with the Ottomans, tried to confront the Portuguese in the Second India Campaign, but this attempt failed. Because of the lack of unity of the Islamic forces against their enemies on the one hand, and because of some betrayals that enabled the Portuguese to prevail over the coalition led by Hussein Kurdi on the other hand, and then the cruelty and lack of deliberation that characterized the Kurdish led to the division and dispersal of the Islamic forces in the Red Sea on the last hand.
