Al-Ma'mūn's Legacy
Nestled in the heart of Baghdad lies the historic district of Bab al-Sharji, its name, "East Gate," reminiscent of medieval fortifications erected in the early 10th century. A fleeting British presence during the closing stages of World War I saw the gatehouse transform into a garrison church, referred to as the South Gate, with the Bab al-Mu'atham, its counterpart to the north. Sadly, none of these medieval walls or the East Gate endure today. Yet, the mere mention of Bab al-Sharji invokes a vibrant picture of a bustling square, teeming with life, food stalls, and second-hand record shops surrounding a busy bus depot and taxi ranks. This district's name serves as a poignant reminder of Baghdad's storied past, from its founding in 762 CE as the new seat of power for the formidable Abbāsid Empire.
