Information

The holy place called "Ojak Spring"­ is located on the ­­Tashkent mountain plateau of Ba Sarkecher district­. Next to the fountain­was a large stone wall. The footprints on the stone have fallen so hard that the fingerprints of the thumb and the other four fingers are clearly visible. The stone is very­solid­, and much of it has sunk to the ground.  According to the narration, there are traces of arrows in four places in the territory of the ­village of Tashkent­. According to the narration, these traces­ remained as a sign when Imam Ali (a.s.)­ passed through the area during ­or before the Arab Caliphate or before it­. In this­­­­ case, it has become a tradition to use the La Liga River­.[i]
