History
Some of the inhabitants of Zarnuqa were Egyptians who arrived in Palestine with the army of Ibraham Pasha.[1]
In March 1892, a dispute over pasture rights erupted between the shepherds of Zarnuqa and the Jewish farmers of Rehovot, which was finally resolved in the courts.[2]
In 1924, the land was sold by Shukri brothers, and Abd al-Rahman al-Taji al-Farouqi.[citation needed]
In 1929, Zarnuqa had 1,122 dunams of citrus orchards and most of its economic growth derived citriculture.[3]
In 1934, the modernization of the village was attributed to its proximity to Rehovot and land sales to Jews by both effendis and fellahin.[4]
It was depopulated during the 1948 War on May 27, 1948 by the Givati Brigade of Operation Barak. It was located 10 km southwest of Ramla. Zarnuqa was mostly destroyed with the exception of a few houses.[citation needed]
In 1945 the village had a population of 2,620. The village had two elementary schools: an elementary school for boys which was founded in 1924, and in 1945 it had an enrollment of 252 boys; and one for girls which was founded in 1943, and in 1945 it had an enrollment of 45 girls.[citation needed]
