Mizrahi Judaism refers to the Jewish communities that originated in the Middle East and North Africa, particularly in countries like Iraq, Iran, Syria, and Egypt. These communities have unique cultural practices, religious customs, and languages, often influenced by the surrounding cultures in which they lived. Historically, Mizrahi Jews have faced various challenges, including persecution and migration, especially during the 20th century. Many migrated to Israel and other countries, where they continue to preserve their distinct traditions while also integrating into broader Jewish society.
