The Or Zaruaa Synagogue, Nachlaot, Jerusalem (Hebrew: בית כנסת אור זרוע, נחלאות, ירושלים) was founded in 1926 (5687 in the Jewish calendar) by Rabbi Amram Aburbeh for Maghrebi (North African) Jews in Jerusalem. It is located at 3 Shmuel Refaeli Street in the Nachalat Ahim neighbourhood.[1][2]
The synagogue was named Or Zaruaa after the Beth Midrash (study hall) Aburbeh's father Rabbi Shlomo Aburbeh held in his home in Avraham Azriel's court in the Old City of Jerusalem .[3][4]
