Naming[edit]
The mausoleum is named after a person whose original name was Sayyid Ahmad. This person was popular among the people by the names of Bashir or Beshir ota. Bashir (or beshir) means a person who has not drunk milk.[citation needed]
Hazrat Sultan Said Ahmad Bashir (1368—1464) according to legends, his father Khwaja Hasan was 90 years old, his mother Bibi Malokhat was 80 years old when he was born. After this son, they have two more children and Said Ahmad does not drink his mother's milk. His birth is also associated with the prayer of Said Nematullah, the uncle of Amir Temur’s teacher Mir Said Baraka. Said Ahmad Bashir became famous by the nickname “Mir of Truth”. He became interested in the Khwaja Ahmad Yassaviy tariqa at a time when the Naqshbandiyya teachings were widely spread in Central Asia.[citation needed]
Many Muslims from different countries came to Hazrat Bashir ota's presence and became his disciples. He died around 1464 and was buried in Niyoztepa in Bashir village.[3]
His grave is located on a hill covered with archa trees, in a place where he built a house for himself.[citation needed]
Architecture[edit]
A memorial carved by masters in the form of a chest is installed on the tombstone of Hazrati Bashir ota in the mausoleum. Two sons and one servant of Bashir ota are also buried in the mausoleum. There is also a tombstone in the mausoleum, which is considered to belong to the original Mongol emperor Mirzo Sayyid Ahmad Jamoliddin.[4]
The mausoleum is built of simple, colorless, plain wood. The mausoleum consists of two floors. Near the mausoleum there is also a room where Hazrati Bashir ota lived.[citation needed]
The mausoleum was moved to the left side of the grave due to the construction of the Hazrati Bashir ota mosque and brought to its current place.[citation needed]
In 1943, the mausoleum and mosque area was abandoned. The bricks of the madrasah located in the pilgrimage area were taken away.[5]
