Taschkent UZ - Kaffal-Schaschi-Mausoleum 04
The Kaffal Schaschi mausoleum (Qaffol Shoshiy maqbarasi) is a tomb in Tashkent which was built for the imam Abu Bakr Kaffal Schaschi late in 926 A.D. Today the grave is not received any more. The Kaffal Schaschi mausoleum joins to the south immediately the complex of the Barak-Chan-Medresse.
The mausoleum, as well as it today looks, became from Gulam Husain, the architect of the Khans in 1542 A.D. built. In the 19th century the mausoleum was altered. It is an asymmetrical mausoleum with several domes and a main entrance (Hanaka). Such Hanakas were often built for travellers.
To the south of the main building, in a court, there are later tombs (Sagana). Beside the mausoleum a house is in the Chodscha Ahrori-vali lived. He was a follower of Kaffal Schaschi and Baha ud dinar of Naqschband and took the view that religious people may never beg. They should earn themselves money. He kept to Naqschbands election slogan: „Dil Ba eru dast Ba chor“ what means so much such as „the heart with God, the arms at the work.“
