Regulations concerning Shchita, Handwritten and Signed by Rabbi Israel Avraham of Czarna-Ostrow, Son of Rabbi Zusha of Anipoli
A handwritten, signed manuscript containing regulations concerning shchitot and bedikot, determined by Rabbi Israel Avraham, Rebbe of Czarna-Ostrow in the town of Kytaihorod close to Czarna-Ostrow, 1806.
In the regulations for the Kytaihorod congregation, he warns, "… That no-one should slaughter, not here in Kytaihorod nor in the villages in the vicinity, unless he was appointed by the congregation….".
He continues that he declares unfit any slaughter by an uncertified person, and ends with the words, "Whoever will listen to me, will be blessed…." (See "Nezer Israel", 82, page 133, where it is told that the holy Rebbe see all that happens in the region of his town of Czarna-Ostrow, and that is how he knows what happens in Kytaihorod).
The holy Rebbe Israel Avraham was born ca. 1772. His father, the holy well-known Rabbi Meshulam Zusha of Anipoli, said of him that he is the soul of Hizkiyahu the King of Judeah. He was the son-in-law of Rabbi Zeev Wolf of Czarna-Ostrow, a foremost disciple of the Maggid of Mezherichi and later one of the leaders of the Hasidic Yishuv in Tiberias. He was the rabbi of the Holy Rabbi "Ahavat Shalom" of Kasow.
When his father-in-law immigrated to the Holy Land in 1798, Rabeinu was appointed Rebbe of Czarna-Ostrow in his stead. In his role of the Rebbe, he influenced the entire region, until his death at the young age of 42 in 1814. After his passing, his widow continued to lead the Hasidim and even their in-law Rabbi Mordechai of Chernobyl, when in town, came for Seudah Shlishit in the widow's house. The widow died in an earthquake in Tiberias in 1837 and is buried in Tiberias next to her father, the holy Rabbi Wolf of Czarna. His orphaned daughter was raised in the home of Rabbi Mordechai of Chernobyl and married the son of Rabbi David of Tulna. The rabbis of Tulna are her descendants.
Rabbi Avraham also had four sons, one of whom was the son-in-law of Rabbi Moshe Shapira, Rebbe of Slawita, who printed in his printing press the book "Noam Elimelech" by his uncle Rabbi Elimelech of Lizhensk (Slavita, 1794). This edition bore the approbation of his father Rabi Zusha (whose approbation is missing from the first edition of "Noam Elimelech," printed in Lemberg).
Remnants of his biography and his study were published by the "Nachlat Zvi" Institute in the book "Nezer Avraham VeTiferet Israel" (Bnei Brak, 1986). The letter being offered here and its photocopy appeared in "Siftei Zadikim," 1996.
