Domes · Northwestern edge of the raised platform
A small open canopy resting on six marble columns. [1]
Six slender columns carry the dome above a small platform near the northwestern corner of the raised terrace. An open prayer niche marks the southern side. [1]
Awqaf connects its name with the Al-Khidr lodge below and describes Ayyubid–Mamluk origins with Ottoman renewal. The canopy and the lower lodge are related spaces rather than two names for one physical room. [1]
