People accompanied the Sheikh to the vicinity of the present Jamkaran mosque. On his arrival Sheikh saw a young man of about 30 years of age sitting on a carpeted seat, leaning against cushions, and a sage known as Hazrat Khezr (AS) was next to him. Hazrat Mahdi (AS) addressed the Sheikh by name, and asked him to go to Hassan Moslem which had a land under cultivation, and tell him that this land was sacred and there should be no more farming performed there.
The Sheikh asked the Imam to give him a sign so that people would believe him. Hazrat Mahdi (AS) asked him to complete his mission while the appropriate signs would be granted in time. He further commanded to ask people to convey prayers there as the prayers recited in this vicinity are equivalent to that performed in Mecca or the Kaba. Thus the holy mosque of Sahebol Zaman was founded in Jamkaran, and today is one of the extremely unique and interesting sites of Qom province, drawing hordes of pilgrims specially on auspicious dates.
