According to Muratalli Tajimamat Abdurayimov, who is responsible for this mosque, the farmer Mamayusup Khoji decided to build a temple for all believers living in the area. He began construction with his own funds and invited craftsmen from such famous Uzbek cities as Samarkand and Khiva to carry out the wall and ceiling paintings that were popular at the time. The original area of the mosque was 13 by 12 meters.
With the establishment of Soviet power, which denied religious beliefs, the building of the mosque housed the Kara-Suu district consumer society.
In the post-war years, a bakery was organized here, where traditional baked goods, including navat, were prepared.
Only in 1981, at the request of local residents, the mosque reopened. Initially, it was called "Bokiy," which translates to "Eternal."
However, in the early 1990s, the descendants of the founder, Mamayusup Khoji-Ata, requested that the mosque be returned to its creator's name.
Thus, the mosque became known again as Mamayusup Khoji-Ata, restoring its historical name.
Historical sources report that in the 16th and 17th centuries, the art of manuscript writing and bookbinding achieved significant success in religious and cultural monuments. The exquisite decoration of the interior walls includes intricate calligraphy and watercolor ornaments. The Central Asian school of floral painting and miniatures gained popularity in the cities of the Great Silk Road, representing various stylistic directions, each distinguished by the refinement of architectural forms and craftsmanship.
