The research sought to study big steam bath in the old city of Dhamar from an archaeological and architectural perspective. The researcher provided new information about the originator of the bath and the date of construction, then he paid attention to the architectural description of all shower rooms and the service area, with the aim of documenting it before it was subjected to architectural modifications that would lose its heritage value. In addition, the study showed the role of Islamic jurisprudential terms and conditions in the method of building the bath and the distribution of its facilities, as well as trying to compare its architectural units and their names with their counterparts in Islamic baths, in order to arrive at the architectural features that distinguish it.
