The Christians believe about the Gate they believe that Jesus entered this Gate on Easter that Heraclius entered it of Jerusalem after his victory over the Persians, and they called it the Golden Gate, which is the wrong translation of his name in Greek, which means beautiful Gate.

The Crusader Occupation

The Gate was opened twice only in memory of the entry of Jesus Hercules of the city (Feast of the Cross).

Early Islamic Period

Use the building located inside the Gate on the side of the Al-Aqsa Mosque hall for prayer, according to the historian Mujir al-Din al-Hanbali, Imam al-Ghazali (may Allaah have mercy on him) in 489 AH (1.98 AD) worship in the Nasiriya school, which is higher than the Bab Al Rhma , and he was studying in Al-Aqsa Mosque and in his absence above Bab Al Rhma wrote part of his valuable book (revival of the sciences of religion).

The modern era

The Islamic Heritage Committee has established the Gate and its floor, taken the place for religious activities within the mosque since 1992, the occupation authorities have suspended the Commission in 2003.

The Zionist claim about the Gate

They claim that Bab Al Rhma and Al Twba is a Jewish heritage, and that it is considered one of the gates of the alleged temple.

In the 1967 war, the Zionist war minister (Moshe Dayan) attempted to open the Gate but failed.

An attempt made breaking it, which foiled in 2002 when a Zionist tried to open an adjacent tomb to the Gate from the outside, and dig a tunnel reach to Al-Aqsa Mosque.
