In the outskirts of Bāb al-Naṣr, a brick dome is located in the southeastern edge of the cemetery dedicated to Sayyida Zaynab bint al-Ḥanafiyah. The cemetery of Bāb al-Naṣr can be seen north to Bāb al-Naṣr and contains lots of tombs and graves for different characters such as historians such as the famous al-Maqrīzī, the Imām ‘Abd al-Raḥman ibn Ḫaldūn, the Imām Burhān al-Dīn ibn Zuqqā‛ah in addition to the theologians, and Āl al-Bayt or the prophet’s Muhammad family. The dome is attached to some remains of the tombs of the Sufis from its western side. The mausoleum is wrongly thought by the neighboring people to be of the famous Zaynab, the daughter of Imām
