Dr. Daniel Tsadik is an Associate Professor of Sephardic and Iranian Studies at the Bernard Revel Graduate School of Jewish Studies, Yeshiva University. He holds a PhD from Yale University (2002). His research focuses on the historical interactions between Jews and Shi'i Muslims in Iran, particularly during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Key themes include religious minorities' legal status, communal identity, and socio-political dynamics in Islamic contexts.
His work explores Iran's Jewish minority through publications like Between Foreigners and Shi‘is (2007), which examines minority-majority relations in 19th-century Iran, and articles analyzing Shi'i legal frameworks, polemical literature, and minority persecution during the Constitutional Revolution. He has also contributed to the Encyclopedia Iranica on Judeo-Persian communities and published on Iranian Jewish identity formation.
Teaching interests include courses on Jewish history in Islamic lands, Modern Iran, and Arabic texts related to Jewish communities. His publications consistently bridge religious studies, Middle Eastern history, and minority cultural preservation. Though no specific grants or awards are listed, his scholarly output demonstrates significant contributions to the field of Iranian Jewish studies.
