We have not found any reference confirming that Saladin had a thousand concubines. Whoever makes such a claim should provide their source of information, especially since this assertion could lead to audacity and transgression against symbols of Islam, such as Saladin. We fear that the one who utters such words may be among those with ill intentions who seek to distort Islamic history.
