The darih is approximately rectangular, and its angles have respectively three or four netlike windows. On top of the darih, there is a small dome, and on top of the angles of its sides, there are muqarnases like the ones in the corners of the minaret of the Mosque of Kufa (which is an imitation from the ones in Masjid al-Aqmar). Green carved marble stones make the base of the darih. The silver darih of the mausoleum of Ruqayya was designed by Dawudi [[Buhras]] of [[India]], and it replaced the old copper darih.<ref>[http://islamicshrines.net/?p=656 Shia holy places for Ziyara]</ref> | ||
