Ibn Kathir said : "And as the royal politics that the Tartars rule by, which were taken from their king, Genghis Khan, who laid down for them Al- Yasiq, which is a book comprising laws which he took from different laws, from Judaism, Christianity, the Islamic religion and others.
It is also in the saying of Ibn Kathir (And as the royal politics that the Tartars rule by, which were taken from their king, Genghis Khan, who laid down for them Al-Yasiq-until his saying - "Thus, it has become within his sons a followed law").
Thus the saying of Ibn Taymia (In judgment between them) and the saying of Ibn Kathir (Thus, it has become in his sons), show that ruling by Al-Yasiq was for the Tartars people only, and that they did not impose it on the Muslims in the lands which they colonised.
