About the Bab al-Asbat Minaret
Bab al-Asbat Minaret, also called the Minaret of the Tribes (Arabic: منارة الأسباط), stands in Jerusalem as one of Al-Aqsa's four minarets, along the north wall. It also goes by the name Minaret of Salahiyah, after the nearby Salahiyah School. It was first built in the Mamluk period, in 1367 (769 AH), under Sultan al-Malik Ashraf Shaaban, at the hands of Jerusalem's governor, Prince Sayf Al-Din Qutlu Bagha, who also inspected the two Harams.
After an earthquake in 1586, the Ottomans rebuilt it in 1599 (1007 AH) as a cylinder 28.5 m long, in Ottoman style. Sultan Mahmud, son of Sultan Muhammad, set aside 300 Sultani dinars for the work. The stone shaft rises from a rectangular base through a triangular transition zone. Above the muezzin's balcony it narrows, with circular windows dotted along it, and it ends in a bulbous dome.
Another earthquake crushed the minaret in 1927, and the Supreme Islamic Council rebuilt it the same year, making it longer, as an inscription above its door records. The dome was rebuilt after the 1927 earthquake that struck near Jericho. Severe damage in 1967 led to a comprehensive restoration, and lead was laid over the cone.
