Rabbi Yehuda was renowned as a holy, pious Jew and miracle-worker who merited seeing Eliyahu Hanavi.
The Chid”a described: “He was accustomed to miracles, and I heard many wonders [about him]… I heard from holy, pious Rabbanim, scholars of the Maghreb region, that he was a holy G-dly man…
He was once thrown into a lion’s den and miraculously survived although he remained there for a full day and night, and it was a great kiddush Hashem. Men would swear by his name, and those who swore falsely, perished.” (Shem Hagedolim)
