Al-Ghawanimah Minaret (Bani Ghanim Minaret)

Al-Ghawanimah or Bani Ghanim Minaret According to travelers and early historians, Abd al-Malik bin Marwan built the al-Ghawanimah (Bani Ghanim) Minaret. Ibn Al-Faqih al-Hamadani (3-4 AH/9-10th century AD) in his Mukhtasar Kitab and Al-Buldan and Shihab Al-Din Ahmad Ibn Muhammad Ibn 'Abd Rabbihi (3-4 AH/9-10th century AD) in his Kitab Al-Iqd Al-Farid describe the pre-Crusader Al-Aqsa enclave as having four minarets.[7] One of them is known as the Ghawanima Minaret. It is also known as the Bani Ghanim Gate Minaret or Ghawanima Gate Minaret, the Qalawun Gate and Minaret of Saraya.[8] It is called the minaret of the Gate of Gwanimah because it is near to the door of Ghawanima (Bab al-Ghawanima).[8] It is named as the Minaret of the Saraya because it is located next to the Ottoman Saraya which is Al-Omariya School at the moment.[8] The reason for naming it the minaret of the Saraya is because the minaret was renewed in al-Mansur Qalawun’s reign.
