No, the stores are owned by Arab-Jews. There are about 4-5 of them on the same street in the 18th arrondissement ( district) of Paris. If you're looking for material, that's the place to go, but you'll need the addresses first (unless you want to get lost). Good luck.

Yes, Arab-Jews, but these Jews in particular are from the Maghrib ( North Africa). What's so shocking? There are Arab-Christians as well.

no no not at all im not shocked about the existence of arab-jews and arab christians infact i have a lot of arab companions from uni which some are arab christians ( mainly from armenian heritage). but the way i adressed my comment was because ur comment sounded like sarcasim when lady-q asked the question if these diric, material shops where owned by somalis and ur comment sounded kind sarcastic ''No, the stores are owned by Arab-Jews''. but my bad i took it the wrong way. hmmm its funny my aunt was actually looking to do the same she was hunting down information on where exactly where to go exactly for diric material and someody told her to go baaris. sounds intresting.
