In Chahar Asyab, there is also an old mill that has given the area its name.

Abdul Latif, the caretaker of this mill, after unlocking it, told TOLOnews the historical stories related to Chahar Asyab and the reason behind its name.

Abdul Latif told TOLOnews: "This entire plain and mountain existed before, and the people who lived here at that time gathered together. A man named Haji Abdul Hai, a very wise elder in this area, told me the history of naming this place. It is not known to others, but I know. Well, when they gathered together, they said, 'We have made four mills out of our necessities,' so they named it accordingly."

There are also local narratives that suggest two brothers named Ainuddin Khan and Hesamuddin Khan, who served as Prime Minister and Minister of Finance during the monarchy, lived in this area.
