WhenNur ad-Dininherited Aleppo after father's murder, he took the title of King (Malik) and used the title of Emir.[33]Formally, the Zengids were subordinate to the Seljuq Sultans of Iraq, firstly Mas'ud thenMalik-Shah IIIfollowed byMuhammad II.Nur al-Din retained the title of atabeg although he was completely independent as the Seljuq empire disintegrated after 1156,[34]and the sultans had to fight in Iraq to keep whats left of their authority. Muhammad II was the last Sultan to hold any real authority, and he attackedBaghdadaided by Nur al-Din's brotherQutb ad-Din Mawdud.Muhammad II death in 1159 and the fact that his successorSuleiman-Shahwas a captive of Mawdud ended any real authority of the Seljuq Sultans,[35]Nur al-Din Held theKhutbahin the name of the Abbasid Caliph,[36]an enemy of the Seljuqs thus cutting any links with them.

The death of Nur al-Din caused chaos asal-Salih Ismail al-Malik,his son and successor was only eleven. The Zengid governors fought for power, each one of them trying to be the atabeg of al-Salih. One of them,Gümüshtekin,became the guardian of the young king and tried to eliminate the others causing the governor of Damascus to askSaladin,the Zengid governor of Egypt, for help. Saladin, formally a subordinate to Al-Salih but practically independent, marched on Syria entering Damascus in November 1174.
