It’s a large complex. Has souvenir stores in the courtyard. The mosque is grand with a lovely dome and calligraphy. There is also a live mosque in the complex and a museum with the oldest Quran.

In the old part of the city of Tashkent, to the north of the "Chorsu" bazaar, there is the complex of Khast Imam or Hazrat Imam. The square has a great cultural and religious significance not only for Tashkent, but for the whole of Central Asia as a center of religious and cultural heritage. At its heart is the Hazrat Iman Mosque. Great to look at and walk across the square. Spectacular! Of the numerous sites surrounding the square, the most important is undoubtedly the Muyi Muborak Library. Muyi Muborak means 'the sacred hair', a reference to a holy relic held here: a hair said to have belonged to the Prophet Muhammad. Amongst its rare manuscripts collection, the library also holds the world's oldest Qu'ran. This Qu'ran was produced just 19 years after the death of Muhammad. Next door to the library is the 16th-century Barak-Khan Madrassa, and, immediately opposite it, the Tellya Sheikh Mosque, formerly Tashkent's main place of worship. Alone with the many blue domes, the minarets, this place is worth seeing. With the history that this place contains. Great. The only thing necessary. You need to speak Russian, or need a guide. Only a few people speak English.

This lovely medieval madrasah is just near the Chorsu Market. It is one of the few buildings that survived the 1966 earthquake.
