The madrasah was built in 1914–1915[2] at the expense of Sayyid Mir Muhammad Alim Khan, the last ruler of the Bukhara Emirate, on the site of the Qazi Kalon bathhouse,[3] where the octagonal dome building has been preserved.

[3] Later, during the Uzbek SSR, the madrasa was turned into a children's library named after Pavlik Morozov.

Now it is included in the "National list of immovable property objects of tangible cultural heritage" of Uzbekistan.

[1] Imam Sobirjon Mustafi, in his article entitled "Regarding the establishment of a madrasah in Bukhara", published in "Vaqt" newspaper, reported that Kholmurod Efendi from Tashkent was appointed as the headmaster of the madrasah, and the headmaster, Sadriddin Makhdum, received lessons in math, calligraphy, fariz, and Ibodulla Makhdum fatwa.

In a letter from Bukhara to "Vaqt" magazine, it was noted that in the 1915–1916 academic year Ishak Sayfiddin from Tatarstan was accepted to study at the madrasah.
