Rabbi David Hassine (1722-1792) is one of the best known figures of Jewish liturgic poetry in Morocco and his piyyutim were spread around the sefardic world.

Hassine was born in Morocco (Meknès), rabbi and poet. He is considered to be one of the greatest Jewish Moroccan poets. He is the author of Tehila ledavid (the hymn of David), a collection of liturgic poems and elegies which have inspired many Moroccan singers, and of Mekoman chel zebahim (The place of sacrifices), a versification of slaughter rituals. He was also the author of several bible commentaries, which unfortunately have not survived the times.
