	~~'''~~Mezuzah ~~Campaign'''~~ is one of the ten campaigns ~~initiated~~ by the ~~Lubavitcher~~ Rebbe~~. It was announced~~ in 1974 ~~(5734)~~, ~~alongside other campaigns such as "Torah Campaign," "Charity Campaign," "Home Full~~ of Jewish ~~Books Campaign~~," and ~~"Shabbat Candle Lighting Campaign" (Neshek)~~.		Mivtza Mezuzah is one of the ten Mivtzaim (campaigns) announced by the Rebbe in 1974. Since the beginning of this campaign, the Rebbe repeatedly emphasized the importance of establishing kosher mezuzos in every Jewish home and checking them periodically. He often referenced the words of Chazal that the mezuzah has the segulah to protect and guard the Jew, his home, and his possessions at all times.

	~~From~~ the ~~beginning,~~ the Rebbe ~~consistently emphasized~~ the ~~importance of affixing kosher mezuzahs to every Jewish home and checking them periodically. He often referenced the Talmudic teaching that a mezuzah has the special merit of protecting the home~~, ~~its inhabitants~~, and ~~their belongings at all times~~.		== History of the Campaign ==
			The campaign was announced by the Rebbe in 1974, the same year in which Mivtza Torah, Mivtza Tzedakah, Mivtza Bayis Malei Seforim, and Mivtza Neiros Shabbos Kodesh (Neshek) were announced.

	~~== Historical Background ==~~		The purpose of this campaign is to ensure that every room in a Jewish home has a kosher mezuzah, which protects everyone in the house and guards the Jew wherever they go, as promised in Tehillim: "Hashem will guard your going out and coming in from now and forever."
	The ~~Mezuzah Campaign was officially launched~~ in ~~1974~~, the ~~same year several other campaigns were introduced~~.

	The ~~primary goal of this campaign is to ensure~~ that every room in a Jewish home has a kosher mezuzah, as it offers divine protection to those within the house and safeguards them wherever they go. This is in accordance with the verse in Psalms: "The Lord shall guard your going out and your coming in, from this time forth and forevermore."		== Protection and Salvation ==
			The Rebbe said that many tragedies could have been prevented if Mivtza Mezuzah had existed twenty years earlier.

	~~== Protection~~ and ~~Safety ==~~		Chazal write in the Gemara that the mezuzah protects the house and its inhabitants, even when they leave the house. The Rebbe publicized this virtue of the mezuzah and explained it based on the Gemara's emphasis on the mezuzah's protective power.
	The Rebbe ~~declared that many tragedies could have been avoided if~~ the ~~Mezuzah Campaign had been implemented 20 years earlier~~.

	The ~~Talmud teaches~~ that ~~the~~ mezuzah ~~not only protects the home~~ and ~~its inhabitants but also those who leave it. The Rebbe highlighted this aspect~~ of ~~protection~~, ~~urging~~ the ~~public to take its significance seriously~~.		The Rebbe added that every individual mezuzah established on a doorpost adds protection and salvation for all of Klal Yisroel, and enhances the effect of all mezuzos already established by all Bnei Yisroel.

	The Rebbe ~~also emphasized~~ that ~~every individual mezuzah affixed contributes to~~ the ~~collective protection~~ of the ~~Jewish people~~, ~~enhancing~~ the ~~safeguarding effect~~ of ~~all mezuzahs already~~ in ~~place~~.		== The Ma'alot Tragedy ==
			After the terrorist attack in Ma'alot on the 23rd of Iyar 5734, during which a group of Palestinians took control of schoolchildren from Tzfas as hostages and murdered them following a failed IDF rescue attempt, the Rebbe instructed to check the mezuzos in the educational institution in Tzfas. It was discovered that the number of posul mezuzos found matched the number of casualties, and when additional casualties were reported, the Rebbe requested another check, revealing more posul mezuzos matching the number of victims in the attack.

	== The ~~Ma'alot Incident ==~~		The Rebbe addressed this event and called for checking mezuzos and their kashrus in connection with the awakening of Mivtza Mezuzah: "I was passionately involved in Mivtza Mezuzah. I was pushed and given no rest from demanding and speaking about mezuzah, I myself don't know why, etc., and now we see how this entire event was connected to the mitzvah of mezuzah."
	~~Following~~ the ~~tragic Ma'alot massacre on the 23rd~~ of ~~Iyar, 5734, where Palestinian terrorists took children~~ from ~~a Tzfat school hostage~~ and ~~murdered them during a failed rescue attempt by the IDF~~, ~~the Rebbe instructed that the mezuzahs in the school be checked~~. It was ~~discovered that the number of invalid mezuzahs corresponded~~ to the ~~number of fatalities. When news of additional casualties emerged, the Rebbe requested further checks, revealing additional defective mezuzahs, matching the total number~~ of ~~victims~~.

	~~The Rebbe addressed this tragedy, urging increased awareness~~ and ~~vigilance regarding the mitzvah of mezuzah. He remarked:~~		== Related Topics ==

	''~~"I was fervently involved in the Mezuzah Campaign. I felt~~ pushed and ~~restless to speak about and demand action regarding mezuzahs.
