Hello @MAHMOUDBENDALOUM ,

Regarding the two geo processing tools, they work very similarly for common cases, the major differences are

• Clip Raster tool now works with multidimensional raster. if you work with scientific data that is  multidimensional raster, the Clip tool can maintain the dimensionality. 
• The requires difference licenses. Clip Raster is a tool requires  ArcGIS Basic license, while Extract by Mask tool requires Spatial Analyst extension license.

Hope this helps.
