[2][3] Ali ibn Abi Talib was just passing by, and heard the slave girl crying; and consequently, he learned about what had happened.

[2][3] Javanmard was one of the faithful believers of Ali, but he did not recognize him by face, so he refused to give the slave girl what she wanted.

[2][3] Other legends state that Javanmard Ghassab was a young butcher whom Ali rewarded with three gold rings after the Khaybar event for helping to sharpen his sword.

[2] It is also theorised that the entombed is in fact the Sufi mystic, Abul-Abbas Qassab Amoli, who is a real person and not semi-legendary.

[2][1] Inside the mausoleum, there is a simple black marble tombstone over the grave of Javanmard Ghassab, enclosed in a protective glass case.
