In 1182 CE (578 AH), during the Crusader Wars, Raynald of Châtillon (Aranat), the notorious Crusader lord of Kerak, launched an unprecedented attempt to infiltrate the Red Sea by transporting disassembled warships across the desert to the Gulf of Aqaba. His forces attacked Muslim trade routes and coastal cities like Jeddah, threatening the Hajj paths and Islamic sanctities. Saladin, upon learning of this, ordered his brother Al-Malik al-Adil to prepare a fleet, which was transported overland to the Red Sea under the command of Husam ad-Din Lu'lu'. After a series of naval battles, Lu'lu' liberated Aylah (Aqaba), reclaimed stolen goods, and defeated the Crusaders, capturing those who attempted to march toward Medina. The prisoners were executed by Saladin’s orders as a warning, while Raynald met his end at Saladin’s hands after the Battle of Hattin (1187 CE).
