Rabbi Machluf Alesari [1915-2001] grew up in the Baba Sali's home in Morocco starting at the age of 16. He was ordained and appointed by the Baba Sali as rabbi of the community in the town of Rich (Morocco) and filled all the spiritual positions in the community. He would awaken at 2:30 in the morning to recite Tikkun Chatzot. He ascended to the Land of Israel with his family in 1963 and settled in Beit She'an. He concealed himself at first in the Land, functioning as a ritual slaughterer at the Of Tov slaughterhouse, but over the years his name spread by word of mouth as one who writes amulets and reveals the hidden. Many people from both in Israel and abroad would come to him for blessing and counsel. The Beit She'an City Council granted him the title "Yakir Ha'Ir." On Shabbat Behar-Bechukotai of 2001, he called his son (R' Yosef), and said "Yosef my son, I know my place ... I know where I will be privileged to sit, " he returned his soul to its maker and his funeral was held at midnight.
