Baruch Dayan Emmes: HaGaon HaRav Yehuda Mutzafi ZATZAL


Rosh Yeshivat Minchat Yehuda HaGaon HaRav Yehuda Mutzafi ZT”L was niftar in Yerushalayim on Wednesday morning, 28 Iyar. The niftar was a son of Mekubal Rav Silman Mutzafi ZT”L and a brother to HaGaon HaRav Bentzion Mutzafi Shlita.

The niftar was battling a difficult illness in recent years, and last month, his condition took a sharp turn for the worse. The family was summoned to his bedside on Tuesday night and he was niftar during the morning hours.

The rav lived in the Geula neighborhood for many years, considered to be a talmid muvhak of HaGaon HaRav Mordechai Eliyahu ZT”L as well as being close to HaGaon HaRav Yaakov Yosef ZT”L.

He is believed to have had one of the largest collections of shofarot (shofars) in the world and would visit talmidei torah to blow them for the young ones before Rosh Hashanah.
