The province of Salahaddin in Iraq, which includes the town of Tikrit, was named after him. There is a University of Salahaddin in Erbil. There is the Salahaddin airport in Hakkari. A Kurdish town north of Erbil traditionally called Pirmam has been named Salahaddin in official documents.
He is very much the epitome of Shafi'i Kurdish identity.
