The reason for this name is that, according to Ibn Shahrashub, when Imam Ali (a), along with three of the Muhajirun, al-'Abbas, his son al-Fadl, and Usama b. Zayd, wanted to bury the noble body of the Prophet (s), the Ansar asked Imam Ali (a) to allow one of them to enter the grave to assist in the burial. Imam Ali (s) sent [[Aws b. Khawli]] into the grave. After placing the blessed body of the Prophet in the grave, Imam Ali (a) told Aws, "Exit and make the grave square."<ref>Ibn Shahrāshūb, ''Manāqib Āl Abī Ṭālib'', vol. 1, p. 174; Shurrāb, ''al-Maʿālim al-ʾathīra'', p. 39.</ref> Another reason for this name is that the pillar is located within a shrine that encloses the Prophet's square-shaped tomb.<ref>Shurrāb, ''al-Maʿālim al-ʾathīra'', p. 39.</ref> | The reason for this name is that, according to Ibn Shahrashub, when Imam Ali (a), along with three of the Muhajirun, al-'Abbas, his son al-Fadl, and Usama b.
