      Life


      Nur ad-Din Muhammad was the Artuqid ruler of the Diyar Bakr, the northernmost region of Mesopotamia. In 1179 he received Saladin's protection against the Sultanate of Rum, with whom he had been feuding. In 1183 Saladin granted him the recently conquered Amida in return for his assistance against Mosul.
