Last October
Ma'ayan Adam
lost her sister
Mafel
Z'al, who was murdered at a Nova party near Kibbutz Reim. Last weekend the TV presenter and influencer launched the Mami consumer club, alongside a website that crashed due to demand and was later repaired.
Adam wanted to go to her sister's grave to share with her the exciting news, but encountered closed gates: "On Saturday, the day of the launch, I came to the waterfall.
This is the place I wanted to be, to receive the blessing and talk to her before.
The gate was closed.
Did you know that the cemetery is closed on Shabbat?
I understand that this is a religious place, but no action is taken.
Is it forbidden to mourn on Shabbat?
I just walk and sit next to her.
I don't have access to my sister's grave and it makes me angry.
If I don't keep Shabbat?
If this is the day I have the most time to come sit down and talk?
It's not okay that I can't get to my sister's grave."

Later, Adam referred to the reactions she received from followers who were exposed to the story: "Mafel loved to come to me on Shabbat and was most happy that I would sit with her all Shabbat. It's really crazy that someone blocks my access to my sister's grave. Is it his place? Does it belong to someone? It's mine, of Everyone whose person they love most in the world is there and someone else tells us no. If you don't want to, don't come. There is no desecration of Shabbat, sitting by a grave. We won't light candles, we won't sing songs, but what right does someone have to prevent, lock up?"
