Below the eastern wall, three of the Prophet's companions -called al-Sadat- are buried next to Mujahid al-Din, the patron of the madrasa. The prayer hall is accessed through a small doorway topped by an arched window inside the southern iwan, which has and a kufic inscription that gives the patron's name and the madrasa's date of completion. The doorway and the inscription are the only elements remaining of the original madrasa. The prayer hall now has a new mihrab and a new wooden minbar, with no major decorations.
