==Trivia==
*In the 4Kids version, Helia is Saladin's nephew.
*Saladin's name might have been based on that of Salah ad-Din Yusuf ibn Ayyub, more commonly known as simply Saladin, who was a Sultan of Syria and of Egypt who successfully fought the Crusaders in the twelfth century and won the respect of many of them, gaining the reputation of a great knight and becoming a legendary symbol of chivalry on Europe.
*Saladin's tunic appears to have been based on the changshan, a traditional tunic worn in Imperial China under the Qing Dynasty.
*Saladin appeared to be taller in his younger years and had black hair (as seen in Season 3 flashbacks) or brown hair (as seen in the second movie).
*In Issue 37 of the comic series, it is revealed that Saladin dated a classmate named Zatura when he was young. The two broke up when Zatura began dabbling in the dark arts with the hopes of gaining everlasting youth and immense power.
