Zevaḥim Shelamim — Abraham Ankawa

זבחים שלמים — אברהם אנקאווה

Zevaḥim Shelamim (זבחים שלמים) is a twofold commentary by Rabbi Abraham Ankawa on Maimonides' laws of ritual slaughter (sheḥitah and bedikah), printed in Livorno in 1858 (single edition). The work continues Ankawa's halakhic writing on kashrut begun with Zekhor le-Avraham.

It sheds light on the rabbinic tensions of mid-nineteenth-century Algeria, where Ankawa served — notably as rabbi of Mascara — after leaving Morocco.
