Kingdom of Heaven The Drink was not (hidden) Handed to you

[@aidanrogers4438]

This scene is based on what actually happened when Saladin captured Guy and Raynald after the Battle of Hattin. Guy accepted the water in real life and then passed it to Raynald, who Saladin had previously said he would kill with his own sword. As other comments have pointed out, the exchanging of the water is part of a tradition that forbade Saladin to harm anyone who accepted it. When he said ‘I did not give the cup to you’, Saladin was pointing out that Guy was the one who gave the water over, not Saladin, thus excluding Raynald from that protection.

[@haninditabudhi6574]

This scene is actually the live footage of Saladin killing Raynald bro

[@FullFrontalExposure]

Known as “the passing of the cup”

[@robertmccutcheon4103]

also In real life Raynold did not kill Saladins sister though he did slaughter the caravan just ahead of hers. Raynold was known as a pirate back then as he raided many Muslim caravan and even Muslim trading ships to gain wealth and this infuriated Saladin to the most extreme level that’s why he had him executed, but Guy never told him to do it. Additionally in real life though guy de lusignan was a devout believer in the crusade he was not stupid enough to actually intentionally instigate a war with Saladin, he knew he was at the disadvantage. In reality guy was Reynolds close friend so he was not willing to hand him over for raiding and he sent his army out because Saladin had placed a allied city under siege and he had marched out to relieve them, this turned out to be a trap and they were ambushed resulting in the crusader army being destroyed.

Explanation: Giving water means safety. You don't kill someone to whom you have given water, those are the rules. So when Guy receives the cup, he passes the cup to Raynald in order to "game the system" and save Raynald from being executed, since now he has drunk Saladin's water and "should" therefore be safe. Of course, the cup wasn't handed to Raynald so it doesn't count, and Raynald is executed for his crimes.

They were not 'bloody savages' at all, they were incredibly respectable people! Faithful, calculating, intelligent, humane.... The complete opposite of the honorless brute that was Raynald of Chatillon. Ghassan Massoud played the part of Salahuddin, excellently! Salahuddin was perhaps thé greatest ruler in all of Islam, perhaps seconded by Fatih II the Conqueror, who besieged Constantinople and séized the city. As far as i know, Salahuddin is still being spoken of as one of, if not THE noblest of all rulers, Islam has ever known. Massoud gave a masterclass in that honor! Its underlined again in one of the final scenes: 'I am not those men! I am Salahuddin, Salahuddin!"

This movie has many historical inaccuracies. I have watched "history buffs: Kingdom of heaven" where he explains many things that are inaccurate.

[@delcapslock100]

There has never been an historically accurate movie, ever. It's actually impossible to know what people in the past were really like, how their conversations went, what their motivations were, etc. And even if we did know those things they would be filtered through individual biases and attitudes of modern film makers and their audience. To say this or that event never happened is meaningless. Movies aren't supposed to be history lessons. They are art and entertainment. The best that historical movies can do is frame events from a particular historical period in a visually compelling way and tie them together with an engaging narrative and relate-able characters. Kingdom of Heaven does that very well, imo.

[@Bajtjr]

I think everyone realizes what you just mentioned about historical accuracy in movies however there are movies that claim to be historically accurate yet disregard much of the knowledge of the movie time period, the real knowledge of characters or the historical knowledge of events that happened which Kingdom of Heaven has some historical inaccuracies (things we do have knowledge about yet are shown differently). And I do think Kingdom Of Heaven shows the crusaders in a very bad light yet does it's best to portray the enemy as kind of honorable. Anyway if you haven't watch "history buffs: Kingdom of heaven". He spend much more time than me on comparing these things and introducing his findings to the audience.

[@delcapslock100]

Bajtjr if I watched that documentary I would want to know exactly what the sources were. Preserved documents? Who wrote them? What were their political alliances? Were they direct observers of the events they describe? Or did they receive their information from another source? Were there corroborating sources and what were their biases? I think we view historical events through a much smaller keyhole than most people realize, and the further back we go the smaller that keyhole is. But that's just my opinion, I could be wrong.

Great scene. Before Baldwin IV died, Raynald fell out of favor with him and was jailed. Guy visited him with a piece of bread. To show that he was there to talk and not poison him, Guy ate a piece and handed it to Raynald. Crusader politicking made Guy wary of being poisoned here so he handed the cup to Raynald. This insults Saladin because offering food to your enemy meant he was under Saladin's protection. "A king does not kill a king" He did not stoop to such underhanded practices. He offered his protection to Guy, not Raynald who he really wanted to kill so he declared "I did not give the cup to you" so his followers knew he did not break a guest oath.

[@TeenageMutantZuckerTurtle]

This scene is actually mostly accurate. In Arabic culture, handing a prisoner a cup of water is a sign that they won’t be harmed. In real life, Guy knew that Saladin had said he would kill Raynald himself, so Guy took a drink to seal the custom and then handed Raynald the cup in hopes that drinking the same water would also save his ally. Guy didn’t understand the custom correctly though, because as Saladin says in the movie, “I did not hand the cup to you”, which means that the protection did not extend to Raynald, so he was killed as Saladin swore he would.

He simply responds with "I know" pretty much telling him he knows he is going to die but he drank it anyways.

@@rovhalt6650 I'm sure he was forcefully put naked backwards on a donkey, to be paraded around his city and wife, as a sign of his defeat at the hands of Saladin.

Guy knew (and it's very obvious) that if Saladin wanted him dead, he would've slaughtered him like the rest of his armies, so the poison theory is quite laughable actually. And it's an Arab tradition which I'm sure the Crusaders are well familiar with that if your enemy offers you a drink in captivity, it's another way of saying _I won't kill you_ .. if anything, Guy was probably hoping that Saladin would spare Raynald if Guy let Raynald drink, until Saladin made clear to Raynald that the drink is not for you (meaning, no mercy for you).

Saladin had vowed to kill Reynald with his own hand though factually the murder of Saladin's sister was never a thing. Because he gave Guy the cup, as a Muslim you cannot kill those you extend hospitality to, but since Guy was the one handing the cup Saladin was free to keep his promise and slayed Reynald on the spot because Reynald was of course a truce breaker, but also because he exposed Saladin's weaknesses when he attacked him in the gulf of Aqaba and threatened Mecca and Medina.

Lovely how you are idoctrinated kaybe vang to believe we are the barbarians.

[@liFE-gt6or]

Kaybe Vang true but there are three other man that are Khalid ibn al waleed and Umar ibn al khattab and Tariq ibn zayd who were incredible generals they definitely challenge salah al deens place at the top they conquered Persia at it’s prime and Greece and all of Egypt and North Africa and the Liberian peninsula respectively all incredible achievements but what salah al deen was no doubt incredible as well

He was clearly taunting him about not being close to King Baldwin when he says "were u not close enough to a great king to learn from his example". Truly great kings of their time Baldwin and Salahuddin.

[@xe2594]

extended version is amazing and this movie deserves more.

[@Restlessab]

I love how ridley scott honors history, Saladdin really was an honorable general, and all his deeds in this movie really took place. Let's not forget that he gave his sister's killer what he justly deserved. *If anyone aggresses against you, so aggress against him with the likeness of that which he has aggressed against you* Quran chapter 2 verse 194

[@BucketOfSuck]

The surrender of Jerusalem in the annals of historical fact was somewhat different than the movie portrays. Saladina mercy has been greatly romanticized.

The Muslims and the people around the area where in fact geniuses from astronomy to algebra they are absolutely critical to the creation of modern society. We are still learning many things from their architecture, they had a building they created that works like a cave has a series of steps, or while being hollow inside the hot air basically goes along the walls and put it away. They’ve used it to store ice. They basically created what we would know as a refrigerator/freezer. Check it out. It’s amazing.

Were. Then they abandoned science for religion.

[@jeremyjames2643]

@billywoods3337 it's unfortunate however it's the same with Christians as well. Religion destroys science, if it was the 1500s I'd be strung up on a pole and burned to death for having epilepsy as they would rather assume I was under demonic possession whereas other cultures recognized it as a disease like how we do today. I cannot say religion has brought amazing scientific discoveries but it's like today the extremists can spew bs and they will find a group of fools to follow em be it the Amish scientologists hell even in China some dude was convinced he was related to God I forget it's exact details but because of him china had tens of millions of deaths, sounds stupid to us but back then ignorant villagers are everywhere its like convincing a child about something he has no comprehension he's just gonna follow along forgetting logic and critical thinking. Don't forget we still got people actually convinced a dude built a boat and somehow had a pair of every single animal and somehow with just him and his family not only managed to survive but feed the millions of other animals some say it was 40 days some say up to 371 either is Ludacris.
