Prof. Shmuel Moreh
The Late Saleh Rahmin Masri - New
York
The Association of Jewish Academics from Iraq and the Babylonian
Jewry Heritage Center in Israel announce with profound sadness
the passing of their benevolent supporter since the establish
of the Association in 1980. The late Saleh Masri was born
in Baghdad- Iraq in 1910 and left it to New York where he
worked in business. He encouraged the Jews of Iraq in Israel
to continue writing in Arabic language which he adored and
admired and supported morally and with funds the 31 books
published in Arabic by the Association.
He kept with pride his Iraqi Jewish name in America, preserved
his Babylonian heritage and customs of prayers, feasts,
food and the family warmth and social life with his friends.
