The existence of 12 pillars indicates the 12 disciplines of knowledge that Ibn Sina surrounded. The space between the columns in the dome of Ibn Sina is open and closed in the dome of Qaboos. Due to local location and limited space of the tomb and to save costs, the tomb of Bu Ali Sina with half the dimensions of the Qaboos dome was considered.
