Abstract

This study is about Sheikh Yousif Abu – Zir, his life role in resisting the

British colonization. It also discusses how he supported men of resistance

financially and morally, and how he supplied them with weapons and offered

them his house to be their meeting place from which they launched their

attacks on their targets. The house was also used as a shelter when danger

was at hand.

The study, in addition, explained how the village of Muweileh (near Jaffa)

was captured by the Zionist gangs, in addition to explaining the role of both

the men of resistance and the Iraqi army in defending the village. Also the

study dealt with the Sheikh’s movement from Muweileh until his settlement in

Bedya, where his life was shaped psychologically and financially before his

death in early 1963.
