    The synagogue was established during the time of Mozaffar ad-Din Shah Qajar. Molla Hanina Melamed Yazdi is known to have founded the synagogue. Molla Hanina died in 1283 SH (1904–1905 AD) and the synagogue was managed by the Jewish Council since then. The synagogue was also a precursor of the Dr. Sapir Hospital and Charity Center which is the only Jewish hospital in Tehran, as Dr. Sapir used to treat patients in one of the rooms of the synagogue.
