Construction began in 2001 on a plot of land that had formerly been used as a rubbish dump. The local Muslim community, supported by the authorities and joined by 104 volunteers, cleared the site, removed waste and laid a layer of topsoil so that building could begin.
The mosque was officially opened in 2013 at a ceremony attended by Talgat Tadzhuddin, the Grand Mufti of Russia, and Yakov Silin, Deputy Governor of Sverdlovsk Oblast.
