MKY Moment​

Today is the yahrzeit of Suleika the tzaddekes, a 17 year girl who gave up her life rather than marry the son of the Sultan. She was brutally murdered as punishment, facing death al kidush Hashem with joy and dignity. Since her burial in Fez, Morroco, in 1834, her kever has been a site of tefillah. Here, Rabbi Chaim Dahan prepares a group of visitors to daven.

Here lies the tzaddekes Suleika Hachouel, an unmarried girl who sanctified the name of Heaven in public and was killed in the city of Fez
