חג הבנות פיוטים
from Learning Tora V'Ahava Hosted by Rabbi Garland and Talmidim of the Tora V'Ahava Community!
Rosh Chodesh L'Banot (Hebrew: ראש חודש לבנות), also known as Chag HaBanot (חג הבנות, 'Festival of the Daughters', sometimes translated as Girls' Day), and in Arabic as Eid al-Banat, is a holiday celebrated by some Jewish communities in the Middle East on Rosh Chodesh of the Jewish month of Tevet, during the Jewish holiday of Chanukah. The Jewish community where the holiday was most preserved is in Tunisia. But, there is also evidence that it was also celebrated in Jewish communities in Libya, Algeria, Kushta, Istanbul, Morocco, and Thessaloniki. Enjoy learning Tora V'Ahava!
