Dome of Sulaiman
Dome of Sulaiman

The Dome of Sulaiman is a structure located in the northern part of Masjid al-Aqsa. It was originally built during the Ummayyad era.

  • It was rebuilt and renovated during the Ayyubi era. It is similar in characteristics to the Dome of Ascension.
  • Some people say it was named in tribute to Prophet Sulaiman (عليه السلام), while others believe it was named after it’s original founder, the Ummayyad Caliph Sulaiman bin Abdul Malik.

  • The dome is octagonal and based on 24 marble columns. A small rock is displayed inside, believed to be a piece taken from the Rock of Ascension, which is why it was protected by an iron fence in the past. 
  • Today the building is used as headquarters for female preachers in the Jerusalem Waqf Directorate.
