*◼: Genghis Khan was defeated in two major battles and seven minor skirmishes in his life,

each time against the same opponent: Sultan Jalaluddin Khwarazm Shah.
The only enemy Genghis Khan paid tribute to for bravery was Jalaluddin. Nur-ud-din Korlakh had rightly said that Sultan Jalal-ud-din was the ransom of the Muslim world. Had it not been for this, the story of the destruction of the Muslim world at the hands of Genghis Khan would have been much longer and more interesting. Had his father accepted his advice to fight Genghis, the history of the world might have been different. If his own brothers had not conspired and occupied the throne, the course of history might have been different. What kind of person was he, he left the throne to his brothers and went out into the forest so that the empire would not fall into another trap.*


From the ashes of defeat he raised the flag of departure. Sometimes a thousand sometimes five thousand, as many warriors as he could find he challenged Genghis Khan with them until the time came when he had an army of Jarrar. He wrote to Genghis Khan: You are sifting the jungle for me, I am sitting here at this time. You will come or I will come.





* Major Revity has written that this was the first time in Genghis Khan's life that someone had challenged him like this and Genghis Khan could not dare to accept the challenge. He knew that if Jalaluddin was challenging like this, then it is not wise to put the head in the lion's mouth. These are not my words, this story of Genghis Khan's hesitation was written centuries ago by Amir Atta. He writes that this challenge of Sher-e-Khwarizm drove Genghis mad. He began to spend morning and evening on preparations for the army. But still he was not satisfied whether he was ready to face Jalaluddin or something was still missing. He knew who the challenger was. Even then, over a horse, there was a quarrel between the commanders of the Sultan's army and a fight broke out. The Afghan ruler got angry and left with his army. Amir Atta writes that when Jalaluddin heard the news, he ran out of the tent, begged him, cried that he should not do this, think of the future of the Muslims, but perhaps this was what God had approved. The army was reduced to half. Genghis Khan seemed to be waiting for this opportunity. The rest is history.*



* The last major battle took place on the banks of the Indus River, when Sultan Jalal-ud-Din, hindered by conspiracies and internal disputes, was going to India with thirty thousand refugees, three thousand horsemen and about five hundred guards, when Genghis Khan came with an army of two hundred thousand. reached. Three thousand horsemen were against fifty thousand horsemen. The author of Global Chronology of Conflict wrote that Jalaluddin fought in such a way that Genghis Khan was surprised. He cut through Genghis's army and reached its core. Then more reinforcements of seventy thousand reached Genghis. When the wounded sultan was surrounded, Genghis ordered that he be captured and brought alive. In front of the Sultan was Genghis and behind the Indus River. Instead of arresting him, he threw the horse from the mountain into the river. It is Nasim Hijazi's and not Major Rivty's tradition that Genghis Khan did not have the courage to throw his horse into the river in pursuit of him. He stood looking at the injured Sultan in shock, he could not believe that anyone could do such a thing. Then he called the commanders of his army and said: Look at this man, his mother should be proud of him, what a brave man he has produced. But this was the time when Sultan's mother was drowning in the Indus River.





*This event is part of Uzbek, Persian and Turkish folklore and is also depicted. This place is in Pakistan and is known as "Horse Tarp". People look on and can't believe how someone can put a horse straight down a mountain into a river.*
