The Double Gate, also known as the door of the Prophet, is two adjacent gates, located on the southern side of the wall of Al-Aqsa Mosque just under the pulpit of the Imam, where it leads to the courtyards of the mosque through a double door, a corridor 82 m long and about 13 m wide and is called by the public "Old Al-Aqsa". It ends with the staircase of its exit in front of the tribal chapel, 80 meters from the triple door. It is a very old door that may be traced back to the Byzantines. The Double Gate and the Triple Gate are both part of the Huldah Gate in the Southern Wall of the Temple Mount.[1][2]

There is an opinion that the door is illiterate in the sense of the decorations of the magnificent top of the door, which resemble the decorations of the door of mercy (Umayyad of construction). The presence of Roman stones does not mean that the door is Roman in the reason of using the builders as a stone on it in Latin writing, But it was placed upside down, which indicates ignorance of its construction in the Latin language, otherwise they would have put it in the correct way. (The inscription is found on the front of the door from the outside).

The door was used as an entrance from the Umayyad palaces that were located south of the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque to the mosque's courtyards through a long corridor known today as the Old Al-Aqsa.[3]
