In a small courtyard and a few meters away from Gate of HebronOne of the doors Jerusalem Historical, two unknown shrines are located, whose evidence does not bear any inscriptions indicating those who were buried in them, and they have sparked widespread controversy between researchers and historians that led to multiple accounts and legends around them.
The graves are located in Omar bin Al -Khattab Square Opposite Jerusalem CastleBetween two modern buildings, which are built of stones, and are identical in the form, one of them is a witness decorated with a turban, which indicates that the buried is a man with a high position, while the other is above a narrow feminist hat, which is likely to be buried a woman.
Some of the common novels are attributed to the genius of the Jerusalem Wall during the era of the Sultan Suleiman the MagnificentAnd she claims that the Sultan ordered their execution, and other myths are narrated from Jewish figures buried in the place or that the two graves are returning to the Sheikh of Al -Hara and his wife, but they are narratives that lack documented evidence.
Some of the novels are also attributed to the Turkish engineer Mimar Sinan It is attributed to the construction of the fence, but it is invalid because its grave is in Istanbul.
Some families claim that the two graves are due to personalities, such as the Al -Ghwanmeh family that links the graves to Prince Abdel Dayem, or the Al -Safuti family that attributes them to Hajj Ibrahim Al -Safoti and his wife, as the grave is attributed to Sheikh Ali Al -Ghammari, the Moroccan, but that narration undermines the presence of the sheikh in the village of Al -Dawayima, the displaced.
As for the historian Kamel Al -Asali, he mentioned that the two graves are unknown, they are likely to be for Mujahideen or those looking at the wall of Jerusalem, without definite proof.
According to Dr. Muhammad Hashem Ghosha, the two graves are Sanan bin Elias, the deputy in charge of “Al -Quds Castle”, and his wife and daughter, an opinion that supports him with some documents and the geographical location of the place, considering that the well -known annihilation is “Safadi soil.”
Historians indicate that the multiplicity of accounts about the name “Bab Al -Khalil” caused a confusion in determining the identity of the buried, as it was known as the Bab Muhbab David, the door of David, the door of merchants, the door of fish, and other names.
