Aybid Leaders Connection With Mongols and Khawarizms in the Book “The outstanding stars in the kingdoms of Egypt and Cairo”

Abstract

Kurds in  (614- 799AH / 1218- 1397AD            ) years entered into many relations with both the Khwarizmians and the Mongols as two forces that had an impact on the status of the Kurdish regions.    These relations ended in conflict, killing and devastation, but this does not mean that the Kurds surrendered to them. In this research, it was indicated that the Kurds tried in every way to protect themselves and break many of these attacks, and this is an evidence of the courage and valor of the Kurds.

This opens the door to the Kurdish regions for major changes and the arrival of more forces there, and in this period the effect of union and betrayal among the Kurds appears.

The historian (Ibn Taghri Bardi) in his book (The Shining Stars in the Kings of Egypt and Cairo) shows a lot of information about this subject, and when searching in historical sources, it becomes clear to us that the Kurds in that period were one of the influential forces in the relations that were between the authority and the countries in neighbor area so that the key of changing the equation was in their hand. This research also falls within the framework of the importance of that period in directing the incidents of Kurdish history.
