 This tomb is located in Sajas approximately 30 km. west of Soltanieh. The dome of this structure is unique in itself and the artistic finishes to it can be related to the Saljuqi era. In this mausoleum is a carved, wooden chest (which usually rests on the tomb) which has been repaired. But the original one can be traced back to approx. the 6th century AH. A great part of the chest which now exists can be related to the 12th century AH., an inscription in this respect reveals the date 1143 AH.
