The town of Liska, known as one of the most sacred places in the world, is filled with special moments where the deep prayers at the gravesite of Rebbe Hershele Lisker zt"l resonate powerfully.
The prayer calls for restoration for the sick, financial blessings for the impoverished, and peace and health for the people of Israel and all people everywhere. Liska has always been a special place in the Jewish world, as it was here that the Liska Rebbe built the famous synagogue, which was among the largest in Europe at the time. The vibrant memory of the town and its tzadik resonates within Jewish communities, where many arrive to request blessings in the cherished Kivrei Tzadikim tradition.
Rebbe Hershele Lisker (רבי הערשעלע ליסקער), better known as Zvi Hirsh Friedmann (צבי הירש פרידמאן) and the celebrated author of Ach Pri Tevu'ah (אך פרי תבואה), was a significant Hasidic leader whose teachings remain influential among his followers today. As a student of the illustrious Teitelbaum Moshe zt"l (משה טייטלבוים זצ״ל), known as the Yismach Moshe (ישמח משה), the Rebbe gained deep insights into Torah and Hasidic teachings. The deep connection of disciple and teacher lives on in Hasidic circles, especially within the Satmar community, which holds both Teitelbaum and Rebbe Hershele Lisker in high regard.
Across the globe, Hasidic communities—whether in Borough Park, Williamsburg, or anywhere in Israel—revere the town of Liska and the merit of the Liska Rebbe. The Liska cemetery is regarded as one of the most vital Kivrei Tzadikim sites, where the tzadik's merit enhances the power of the prayers offered there. On the anniversary of the Rebbe's passing, the yahrzeit (יארצייט), thousands of people make a pilgrimage here to pray and seek blessings for their families and communities.
Through his writings like Ach Pri Tevu'ah (אך פרי תבואה) and Hayoshor veHatov (הישר והטוב), the Liska Rebbe’s spiritual legacy remains a source of inspiration and guidance for Jewish communities around the world. The sacred land of Liska is not just a historical site of miracles and blessings; it remains a place where heartfelt prayers are heard, bringing blessings to all who seek them.
