It is located in the northern squares of Al-Aqsa, southeast of Bab Faisal. It was built by the Ottoman Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent in the year 943 AH / 1536 AD, and in his name he was called. It is also called the Path of Chain and the Path of Darkness.

The sabil is located at the southern end of a terrace that bears his name, between the sabil and Bab Faisal. It appears that the construction of the mastaba was also done by Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent, whose reign was distinguished by the construction of the fountains, so it was called by his name. A visible mihrab stands on the southern side of the mastaba, facing it on the other side, the Sabil of Suleiman.
Added to this sabil is a place of ablution called the ablution area of Sabil Suleiman, and it is located between it and the Dome of the Lovers of the Prophet to the south. It was established by the Islamic Heritage Committee in 1997, and it consists of 34 Hanafis.
