Beside the bridge of the Isfahan Gate, and at the beginning of the Héfez Avenue, there is another Tomb-Chamber of a descendant of an Emam, who is ‘Ali Ibn Hamzeh, son of Emam Musa Kazem (on whom be peace!), where there is a large and beautiful courtyard and sanctuary. The inlaid and embossed main door is ancient and attractive, and in the Vestibule, above the archway leading into the courtyard, there is an inscription in a fine Suls character, written by Sultan Ebrahim, the grandson of Amir Timur (Tamerlane), who was not only a king but an artist and a calligraphist as well. The inscription has been engraved on a stone resembling porphyry. An extremely fine ‘ inlaid“ wooden box has been placed on the tombstone. This is a masterpiece of the art of inlay, and it is one of the treasures of this Shrine.
The original building is ascribed to the time of Amir ‘Uzu dud_Doleh Dailami in the middle of the tenth century A. D. It was repaired in the time of the ‘Safavis, during the monarchy of Karim Khan Zand, and when the Qajars were reigning, but the marble paneling of the sanctuary and the mirror work was begun five years ago ‘and are still being carried on, and repairs and decorations are proceeding. ‘Ali ben Buyeh ( Emad Ud—Doleh), Who died in 949 A. D. was buried here, but at present, his burial site is not evident.
