Abstract

Islamic World was exposed to Mongol invasion which is one of the most terrifying invasion the world has ever witnessed in the first half of 12th century. It is claimed that a political genius Caliph Al-Nasir Li-Din Allah caused the Mongol invasion by provoking Genghis Khan against The Khwarazmian dynasty which is thought by Al-Nasir Li-Din Allah as an obstacle for his political objectives. Ala ad-Din Muhammad of Khwarezm's lack of foresight was enough justification for Genghis Khan to attack The Khwarazmian dynasty, there is no need to seek for another incitement and reason for Mongol invasion directed to Islamic World. However, although there is no direct impact of Caliph Al-Nasir Li-Din Allah for emergence of Mongol invasion, it is an undeniable fact that the policies followed by the Caliph were effective in the success of Mongol invasion.
