The grave of Hamzah (son of Mūsā al-Kāzim) with mirror work in the mosque
Sayyid Abi al-Qasim Hamzah is a son of Imam Musa ibn Ja'far al-Kazim who is credited for the genealogy of the Saffavids. Hence, the Imāmzādeh Hamzah is a "de facto ancestral cemetery". Thus, it strengthens the notability of its link to the mosque in Ardabil where the elite Saffavids have been buried. The style of decoration of the Hamzah Mosque is further enhanced and has therefore enjoyed sustained patronage.[1]
Descriptionedit
The exquisite mausoleum dates back to the 14th century (8th century Hijri yearAH), with influence from the Safavid and Qajar dynasties and is thus a pilgrimage centre.[2]
