Dome of al-Khalili

The Dome of al-Khalili (Arabic: ‎‎ Qubbat al-Khalili) or the Hebronite is a small domed-building located in the central platform of the Temple Mount (Haram ash-Sharif), north of the Dome of the Rock in the Old City of Jerusalem. The building is made of bricks which are currently tarnished. The Dome of al-Khalili was built in the early 18th century during Ottoman rule of Palestine in dedication to a shaykh named Muhammad al-Khalili.[1]
