The mosque, known as the "Imam's legacy," was commissioned in honor of Hekime Hanım, who descended from the lineage of Seyyids. Hekime Hanım, being the sister of Imam Rıza, was once pursued by individuals with ill intentions.
Upon facing these challenges, she sought refuge in Azerbaijan and had to live under the name "Bibi Heybet" to avoid recognition. After her passing, the place where she was buried was transformed into a shrine.
