Sefardi Residents of Crown Heights To Commemorate The Hiloula of Rabbi Yaacov Abuhatzeira With Annual Event
Merkaz Sefarad Chabad and the Zaetz family are inviting the Sefardi community members of Crown Heights to the annual Hiloula of Rabbi Yaacov Abuhatzeira, זצוק”ל, a.k.a the Abir Yaacov.
Rabbi Yaacov Abuhatzeira is the grandfather of the Baba Sali זצוק”ל whose Hiloula is two weeks later on the 4th of Shevat.
The 20th of Tevet is also the Hiloula of the Rambam and the grandfather of the Rabbi Chaim ben Attar, otherwise known as the Or Hachaim Hakadosh.
The annual Hiloula also takes place just days before 24 Tevet, which is the Hiloula of the Alter Rebbe.
An inspiring evening with special guest speakers, traditional Moroccan foods, and live music accompanied by excellent Paytanim, is planned.
The Hiloula is partially sponsored by Mrs. Chaya Zaetz, a grandaughter of the Baba Sali, and her family, and the Merkaz Sefarad.
Separate sections for men and women.
The Hiloula will take place in Ulam Chana, 556 Crown Street this Thursday night at 8:00 pm.
