Haggada shel Pesach - per the Karaite Customs, Egypt 1903
Seder Haggada of Passover per the customs of "HaYisraelim HaKaraim," printed by Keren Kayemeth, Egypt, [1903]. Stamped with the seal of the beit din of HaYisraelim HaKaraim in Egypt.
After the title page appears the inscription: "Anyone who finds in his hand or under his authority will be arranged from those arranged and not signed with the seal of the Israeli court Karaites in Egypt will be punished as punishment Dinah Damalkutah'.
The Karaite haggada relates the story of the exodus from Egypt and the wonders and Hallel, only as it appears in the Torah, Prophets and Writings. It includes the blessing for the mitzvah with variations [אקב"ו בימי מועדי השמחה והזמנים ומקראי קדש וחג המצות הזה], the blessing on the matza includes that of the marror: [אקב"ו על איכלת מצה ומרור], with other variations to the kiddush text, blessing on the wine, and other blessings. The Karaite seder does not include the custom of four cups of wine, and the blessing of "borei prei Hagafen" is made on raisin wine.
There was a prominent Karaite community in Egypt until the establishment of the State of Israel, when many Karaites immigrated to the Land.
