In Kislev 1990, the Jews of Morocco, headed by the Shali’ach Rabbi Yehuda Leib Raskin, began writing a Sefer Torah in honor of the Rebbe and in memory of the Rebbetzin. In Chashvan 1961, the writing of the Sefer Torah was completed and when Rabbi Raskin came to the worldwide Kinus of the Shluchim, he brought the Sefer Torah with him for its Hachnasah to 770.
The Siyum and Hachnasah took place on Sunday, the 26th of Cheshvan 1961. On the following day, the 27th of Cheshvan, after the Shacharit prayer, the public found out that the Admor was about to hand out a Mamar about the Sefer Torah. The Chalukah was after the Aravit prayer. The Kuntres was given with two dollars for charity and a Leikach or chocolate-chip cookie.
The content of the Kuntres: the Kuntres contains two Mamarim Divrei Elokim Chaim said by the Admor on two different occasions – ד"ה "להבין ענין כתיבת ס"ת" מההתוועדות דט’ שבט תש"ל, וד"ה "פדה בשלום נפשי" on the Hitva’adut in Kislev 1980 and a Sichat Kodesh from the Hitva’adut. In addition, a letter by the Rebbe the Rayatz about Hachnasat Sefer Torah.
