Amir al-Mu'minin: Difference between revisions

 

A similar (but not the same) title{{clarify|date=February 2020}} was afforded to the [[Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth]]'s monarch as the Grand Duke of Lithuania by the [[Lipka Tatars]], who used to speak a [[Turkic languages|Turkic]] language. The title of sire was used "Vatad", as in "homeland" ("Vatan"), which meant "defender of the rights of Muslims in non-Islamic countries." The Grand Duchy was viewed as a new [[homeland]]. Vatad was viewed as a variation on the name [[Vytautas]] in Lithuanian or Władysław in Polish, which was known in the diplomatic notes between the [[Golden Horde]] and the countries of Poland (Lechistan) and Lithuania (Lipka) as "Dawood". One can claim that, since [[Casimir the Great]], the Polish-Lithuanian monarch as the King of Poland was tasked with the protection of the rights of the Jews and other non-Christians.
