Who stands behind the Badatz of Machon Aliya?
The Badatz of Machon Aliya operates under the close supervision of the institute’s leading rabbis, headed by Rabbi Y. Adelsheim shlit”a and Rabbi S. Eliyahu shlit”a – among the most respected rabbinic authorities at Machon Aliya.

Sta”m Writing

Computer Check
Each parchment is scanned by advanced software to detect errors and ensure halachic accuracy.
Gavra Proofreading
Each scroll is rechecked manually by a certified proofreader for halachic accuracy.
Box & Strap Check
Boxes and straps are inspected to ensure proper shape, material, and halachic standards.
Full Supervision
All production stages are under close rabbinic supervision — from writing to final packaging.
Example of Our Kashrut Certificate
This certificate confirms that each pair of tefillin was handwritten by a certified scribe, underwent computerized and manual halachic inspection, and was approved under full rabbinic supervision — through every stage of production.
It serves as a formal guarantee that the tefillin are kosher or kosher le’chatchila (optimal halachic standard).
Why It’s Important to Buy Tefillin with a Signed Kashrut Certificate
Purchasing tefillin is not a minor matter — it’s a sacred mitzvah that requires trust and authenticity. Unfortunately, not all tefillin in the market are truly kosher. There have been cases where the parchment inside was found to be printed by computer, which completely invalidates the tefillin, or even worse — written on non-kosher material that is not halachically acceptable. In some instances, the tefillin batim (boxes) were flawed or halachically disqualified, especially when manufactured without proper oversight.
That’s why it’s critical to buy from a trusted and certified source.
Machon Aliya Tefillin guarantees that each pair goes through all required stages of halachic verification — including handwriting by a certified scribe, computer scanning, manual proofreading (Hagahaat Gavra), inspection of the batim and straps, and close rabbinic supervision.
Every set of tefillin comes with a signed kashrut certificate issued by the Badatz of Machon Aliya, so you can fulfill the mitzvah with complete peace of mind and full halachic assurance.
