3 Tammuz or Gimmel Tammuz (Hebrew: גִּ׳ תַמּוּז, ɡˈɪmə͡l tˈamʌz lit. 'the third of Tammuz') is a holiday on the Chabad-Lubavich calendar that marks the anniversary of the death of Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, the seventh Rebbe of the Chabad-Lubavitch Hasidic dynasty. Schneerson died on June 12, 1994, corresponding to 3 Tamuz 5754[1] in the Hebrew calendar. The day is observed by followers of Chabad-Lubavitch as a time for reflection on his teachings and legacy.[2]
