This study includes the results of the documentary research and analyses of the hand recording studies carried out in the mausoleum of Abubakr Kaffal ash-Shashiin in Tashkent, which is an ancient monument in the Khazreti Imam Complex of the XVI century. Khazrati Imam died in the 10th Century, but his Complex (Hastimom) buildings were built in the 16th-20th Centuries in different periods. The oldest surviving building is the 16th Century Barakkhan Madrasah, in the Complex. In the middle of the 19th Century, the Tillashaikh Mosque, the Moi Mubarak Madrasah, and the Mosque (not exist today) were built. In the early 20th century, the Tillashaikh Mosque rebuilt. In this study, the Complex buildings of Khazrati Imam will be investigated, and the monumental tomb of Kaffal Shashi, which shows many different interpretations, will be examined from the conservation point of view.
