Parizad
School,
a
school
in
Mashhad
that
Parizad,
Nadimah
Goharshad
dedicated
for
religious
students.
The
building
of
this
school
was
completed
in
823
AH
and
has
been
renovated
three
times.
In
the
past,
this
school
was
outside
the
boundaries
of
the
Razavi
shrine,
but
with
the
development
of
the
shrine,
it
was
placed
inside
it.
Parizad
School
is
bounded
by
Balasar
School
from
the
north,
Behdar
al-Siyad
Razavi
from
the
east,
and
Goharshad
Mosque
from
the
south.
Previously,
the
school
had
a
way
from
the
west
to
the
old
bazaar
and
from
there
to
the
ancient
courtyard
of
the
Razavi
shrine.
This
school
is
one
of
the
buildings
of
Timurid
Shahrukh
(807-850)
in
Mashhad,
located
in
the
Astan
Quds
Razavi
complex,
which
was
founded
by
Parizad,
Goharshad
Agha's
servant,
Shahrukh's
wife.
He
built
this
school
at
the
same
time
as
Goharshad
Jame
Mosque
and
from
its
surplus
materials.
Parizad
Khanam
was
a
descendant
of
Rabi
bin
Khaytham
known
as
Khwaja
Rabi
(died
61
or
63)
and
the
wife
of
Mirza
Mirek
Hosseini,
the
guardian
of
Khwaja
Rabi's
tomb.
According
to
a
detailed
endowment
letter,
the
original
copy
of
which
is
available
in
the
Khorasan
endowment
department,
Prizad
delegated
the
management
of
this
school
and
its
many
endowments,
which
were
intended
for
the
students'
monthly
allowance
and
other
expenses,
to
his
wife.
The
plan
of
this
building,
like
other
schools
of
Timurid
period,
has
four
porches.
The
design
of
its
courtyard,
which
has
ice
corners,
was
previously
implemented
in
Khwaja
Abdullah
Ansari
Khanqah
in
Gazergah
and
Ghiyathiye
School
in
Khargerd.
On
both
sides
of
the
porches,
there
are
27
rooms
on
the
two
floors
facing
the
courtyard,
which
are
connected
by
four
staircases
in
the
four
corners
of
the
courtyard.
Currently,
this
school
is
used
as
a
center
for
answering
religious
questions
and
providing
information,
which
includes
departments
for
answering
religious
questions
in
person
and
over
the
phone,
religious
counseling,
circles
of
knowledge,
shrine
studies,
computers
and
information.
