    In Mandaeism, the zidqa brikha (or zidqa brika; Classical Mandaic: ࡆࡉࡃࡒࡀ ࡁࡓࡉࡊࡀ, lit. 'blessed oblation') is a type of ritual meal blessed by Mandaean priests. Zidqa means oblation and can also mean alms, while brikha means blessed. Unlike the lofani, which is a minor ritual meal does not require the presence of a priest, the zidqa brikha needs to be prepared by a priest.: 232 
    The zidqa brikha is offered and eaten at the end of tarmida (junior priest) initiation ceremonies, after the novice's 60-day seclusion period. It is also offered at weddings and during the Parwanaya festival.
    The ahaba ḏ-mania or hava ḏ-mania (presentation of garments) is a form of zidqa brika for those who have not died wearing the ritual garment, or for the ritually impure. It is performed on a proxy during the Parwanaya.
    It is distinct from the lofani and dukrana, which are two other types of ritual meal offered for the dead.
