The Tisch took place at the home of Reb Yoel Hasenfeld, a son-in- law of Reb Shmiel Scharf, and grandson of the Sadigura Rebbe Shlita.
The Ruzhiner, known as “the holy one from Ruzhin”, was the progenitor of several Chasidic dynasties known collectively by the name Ruzhin.
As the son of Rebbe Sholom Shachne of Prhobisht, who was the son of Rabbi Avraham HaMalach, Rabbi Yisroel Friedman was a direct descendant of Rabbi Dov Ber, the Maggid of Mezritsh who was the main disciple of the Baal Shem Tov.
