About Pinhas Khalifa Ha-Cohen Azogh

Pinhas Khalifa Ha-Cohen Azzogh (; died 12 January 1952), also known as Baba Pinhas, was a Moroccan rabbi born in Tarudant. He was an early Zionist activist in Morocco, involved in distributing literature, fundraising, and selling plots of land in Palestine to Moroccan Jews.

Name Azzogh, meaning 'great' in Berber languages, is an honorific title for a renowned saint. He went to Marrakesh from Tarudant, apparently just before getting involved in Zionist activity. Rabbi Pinhas Cohen collected money from the Jews in Marrakesh and in April, May, and June expanded his fundraising to Jewish communities in the Sus region south of Mogador.
