Above the grave of the crown prince, a mausoleum was erected with an adjoining madrassah which became the philosophical and spiritual centre of the complex. The name of the complex itself – Dorus Saodat – can be interpreted from Arabic as “Precept of Power”. However, in 1394, Umar Sheikh the Second, the 29-year-old son of Temur perished during the siege of Kurd fortress in Iran. His body was brought to Shakhrisabz and buried in Dorus Saodat complex.
