Hareidim Honour Druze Policeman Zidan Saif. Who are the Druze (Video)?

Today, Zidan Saif HY"D, the first policeman on the scene of the Har Nof Synagogue Massacre was buried. Hareidim took part in the funeral giving due honour and respect to a man who protected - in this event alone - an untold number of Jews. For more information about the funeral and details concerning the Psak that HaRav Ovadia Yosef gave concerning giving due honour to such a person, see the article on The Jewish Press.

Who are the Druze?

Please Daven for Those Injured 

in the Har Nof Synagogue Massacre

Please Hashem - please have mercy upon and grant a Refuah Shleima to:

Shmuel Yerucham ben Baila

Chaim Yechiel ben Malka

Avraham Shmuel ben Shaina

Eitan ben Sara

amongst all of Klal Yisrael

May we all be able to bless each other, to forgive each other,

to give more to each other,

to stop the baseless hatred and replace it with a baseless love.

May we learn not to hurt each other, not to insult each other,

not to embarrass each other.

May we learn to be honest in business with each

and to value the other's money as much as we value our own.

May we learn to understand the other

from wherever he may come from in life.

May we all learn to see the good of our fellow Jew.

May we learn what true Jewish unity is.

May we be prepared to put in the effort to be united

and may this hasten the Geula - the redemption -

and that we be taken out of this painful Galut (exile) immediately.

A wonderful video sharing the story behind the Temple of Jerusalem (the Beit HaMikdash.) Enjoy! So much to think about. So much to pray for. May we blessed with the redemption immediately already!
