In Kolkata, India, the Maghen David Synagogue is meticulously maintained by Anwar Khan, the chief caretaker. Although the number of Jewish people in the city has dwindled, Khan takes great pride in his role and ensures that the synagogue remains pristine. Despite the ongoing conflict between Israel and Gaza, the tranquility of the synagogue is undisturbed, and Khan emphasizes the commonality between Muslims and Jews, stating that they both pray to their respective gods. The caretakers of the synagogues, all of whom are Muslim, have maintained a longstanding tradition, passing down the role from generation to generation. Despite the decreasing number of Jewish individuals in Kolkata, the caretakers remain dedicated to their important work, demonstrating the bond that exists between the Muslim caretakers and the Jewish community. This bond dates back to the early 1800s, when the Jewish community flourished in Kolkata, attracting individuals from the Middle East and Iran. Today, the dwindling Jewish community in Kolkata and across India faces significant decline, with many families relocating to Israel and other countries. Despite this, the caretakers’ dedication remains unwavering, and their amicable relationship with the Jewish community continues to serve as a symbol of hope and unity in the city.
