Dome of al-Khalili, Islamic shrine on Temple Mount, Jerusalem, Israel

The Dome of al-Khalili stands as a brick structure on the central platform of Temple Mount, north of the Dome of the Rock.

Built in 1700 during the Ottoman period, this religious edifice commemorates Shaykh Muhammad al-Khalili, a distinguished scholar who died in 1734.

The structure maintains its original Islamic architectural elements while reflecting the Ottoman influence prevalent in Jerusalem during the 18th century.

Visitors can locate the dome at coordinates 31°46'42"N, 35°14'6"E, within the boundaries of the Temple Mount complex in Jerusalem.

The weathered brick construction of this dome distinguishes it from other religious structures on Temple Mount, marking its extended presence through centuries.
