Person
The Kedushat Aharon—Rabbi Aharon Friedman of Sadigura רבי אהרן פרידמן מסדיגורה — קדושת אהרן
the third rebbe of Sadigura; the only one whose leadership passed wholly in Sadigura
Grandson of Rabbi Avraham Yaakov, founder of the Sadigura court, and son of Rabbi Yisrael. The sources give the year of his birth only roughly, and we do not set it.
He took the court after his father's death in 1907, and most of his father's chasidim followed him. He is the only one of the Sadigura rebbes whose leadership passed wholly in Sadigura itself: those who came after led the court from Vienna and from Tel Aviv.
He died on 19 Tishrei 1912. His book is the Kedushat Aharon, which came out in Warsaw in 1913. His son Rabbi Mordechai Shalom Yosef took the court at sixteen.
