[Music] So in 2015 there was a terrible tragedy that happened on a Friday night. A fire and seven children perished in that fire and the community was shaken. The whole world was shaken. It was a tragedy that we really never witnessed. And the rabbi said, "Listen, it's it's a rare thing. It'll never happen again." and we have to pray, but we're okay. And then a couple of years later on my block, two houses away from me, there was another fire on Hanukkah, children passing away, the mother passed away. I said, but I thought it's not supposed to happen again. It happened again. And we were doubly shaken now. Two fires in a couple of years, children dying. I mean, so I said to myself, what was the common denominator between both these fires? They both happened at night in the middle of the night and our rabbis always tell us that Torah protects us but Torah protects us when we're learning the Torah and at night we're not learning. So I said to myself, maybe that's it. Maybe this is a sign from Hashem that we need to have protection of Torah at night. You know, thank God ours are open from early in the morning and they're there till 11:00 at night, 12:00 at night, but the last guy out at 12:00 closes the door. So from 12 to 6 there's a gap and we're vulnerable at that time and that's when the two fires happened. So I accept it upon myself for the sake of the protection of the community and really no other intention to get 20 rabbis which we have today and to hire them to pay them a stipen monthly stipen and to learn exactly in those vulnerable hours from midnight until sunrise in the morning and to pray and then to be on their way. And we have a protection 12 months a year Sunday through Thursday from midnight until the morning. Now these 20 rabbis know what their purpose is. Their purpose is to study for the protection of the community and specifically the protection of the families that support them. So they have the names of all the supporters. It's in front of them. The way it works is they have to go to the mikvah first. So they're studying in purity. They mourn the destruction of the beta mikdash in the beginning of the night. They sit on the floor. They cry. Ashes on their head, sackcloth on their bodies. And then they pair up and they learn every night. Ah Kel is a great sadik Rabbi Mikl Handler. He's unbelievable. He's author of as well both on Cababala, both on shop. >> 1 hour night of learning is like learning a whole day. There's something special about learning after midnight. >> You have to pay them a little extra than a regular ker because you're really asking them to stay up at night and leave their wives. That means what is sacrifices? People are leaving their wives every night of the week. It's my favorite charity for the reasons that I told you. We need protection and it's the only one. There's no redundancy in you kids. Oh, we have we have it already. You know, we have another yeshiva. You need another mcvet. We need another, you know, uh uh school co. There's only one coat in the Syrian community and this is it. Now that we have the co stabilized, so we're getting into the uh technology of it. So, we're going to open up the website. So, it'll be very user friendly. People can go on the website. If somebody's sick in the middle of the night, just go on the website, put the name in. Boom. It's sent out to the to the K rabbis. You want to donate online. Let's say you have a important meeting, let's say. So, you know, the night before the rabbis will learn for you. So, the next day when you have your meeting, you get success. They had coats in halab. And as long as they had coat in, Rabbi Abraham said nobody, God forbid, suffered any tragedies or any uh misfortune or mish happenings, fires and things like that. And thousand times since we opened, we've seen the protection that our community has. We ask all of you that are receiving the benefits of Kel Hats on a nightly basis, 12 months a year. We need money to pay the rabbis. And I'm asking you if you can make a a payment towards this insurance policy. You're you're you're the holders of the policy. And therefore, we're asking you to please give us from your ma. We need the money to pay the rabbis and we want to expand item. And God should give all of us protection, safety, peace and prosperity and make that [Music]
