Biography
ENGLISH: The roots of the Abada family begin in Baghdad, the capital of Iraq. There was always an important Jewish community in this country, since the biblical exodus to Babel. In the end of the 19th century, all the Middle East was part of the Ottoman Empire. Then Yehezkel Abada, his wife and 7 children, (all boys), immigrate to Egypt, thru Lebanon and Palestine. The family lived in Tanta, a city in the Nile delta, north of Cairo. In 1917, Moussa Abada, the third son, married with Freha Mekayess, and had 9 children. Later on the family moved to Cairo. Moussa, like most of his brothers, worked with textile, and had a small shop in “Haret el Yahoud”, that’s the antique Jewish quarter in Cairo. He died in 1946.
