Jamaran Hussainiya

Jamaran Hussainiya (Persian: حسینیه جماران) was the mansion of Ruhollah Khomeini, founder of the Islamic Republic of Iran, in Jamaran village. In January 1980, Khomeini traveled to Tehran to treat a heart ailment. The doctors told him the weather in Qom was not good for him. The mansion is situated next to the Hussainiya mosque in Jamaran village, the mansion being linked to the mosque by a metal platform. Khomeini often walked up a flight of stairs leading from his house to the balcony of the mosque, from which he often spoke.
