About the Rebbe, Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak Kahn, zt”l (1914–1997):
One of the greatest Admorim of his generation, he was the founder of the Toldot Aharon Chassidus. After the passing of his father-in-law, Rabbi Aharon Roth (Reb Arele), most of the Chassidim chose Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak as their new Rebbe and leader.
Under his leadership, the Chassidus flourished, expanding to new centers in Beit Shemesh and New York. He was a staunch opponent of Zionism, known for his holiness, piety, and asceticism.
About His Son and Successor, Rabbi David Kahn, shlit”a (b. 1947):
Rabbi David Kahn was named after his great-grandfather, Rabbi Aharon David Kahn, and Rabbi David of Dinov, one of his ancestors. His name was given by instruction of his grandfather, Rabbi Aharon Roth.
After his father’s passing, he was chosen by the Chassidim to succeed him as Rebbe of Toldot Aharon.
He is known for his concern and kindness for all Jews, even those outside his Chassidic court, offering both financial and moral support. He heads the charitable organization "Shaarei Rachamim" for widows and orphans, discreetly assisting them, including providing Purim gifts, matzot for Pesach, and more.
He has also composed about seventy melodies, including well-known tunes for "Tzama Nafshi, " "Ve’emunah Kol Zot, " "Rachem BeChasdecha, " and "Niggun D’veikut."
Additional Features:
[11] Coins, stored in their original cases.
Each case contains a prayer note with a name for blessings.
The oldest coin features a dedication written on parchment by Rabbi Avraham Baruch Fuchs.
