Ibn al-Athir's Account:The population was put to the sword by the Franks, who pillaged the area for a week. A band of Muslims barricaded themselves into the Oratory of Savid [Tower of David] and fought on for several days. They were granted their lives in return for surrendering. The Franks honored their word, and the group left by night for Ascalon [a city on the coast]. In the Masjid al-Aqsa [the Temple of Solomon] the Franks slaughtered more than 70,000 people, among them a large number of Imams and Muslim scholars, devout and ascetic men who had left their homelands to live lives of pious seclusion in the Holy Place.What events do both of these accounts describe

As we can see at the beginning of the story, the narrator presents the moment when the population that was not killed by the Franks, decided to use the Tower of David as a refuge, where they could stay safely hidden and save their lives. However, they were surrounded and it would be very difficult to escape the persecution. So, afraid of dying, the Muslims decided to surrender, as long as their lives were pulped, the Franks agreed and so it was done. At that same time, another conflict involving Franks and Muslims took place in Solomon's temple.
