A monumental gate centered on the eastern wall gave access to the courtyard , which was surrounded with halls of different sizes to its north and west , including a mosque on the western wing and a single minaret near the northeastern corner . The Pir Husayn Khanqah was renowned for the glazed tiles covering the interior of the tomb and the sheikh 's sarcophagus , which had disappeared entirely by 1913 .
