كفرياسيف
During Ottoman rule, Kafr Yasif primarily grew olives and cotton. Ottoman tax records from 1596 showed that Kafr Yasif had a population of 58 Muslim households, seven Muslim bachelors and 19 Jewish households. The villagers paid a fixed tax-rate of 25% on various agricultural products, including wheat, barley, fruit trees, cotton, goats and beehives, winter pastures, "jizya" (poll tax), in addition to "occasional revenues"; a total of 12,877 akçe. All of the revenue went to a waqf. In 1618 the Druze chief Fakhr al-Din II destroyed the home of the local Shia Muslim notable Ahmad Quraytim in Kafr Yasif, then part of the Ma'nid-controlled Safad Sanjak, because Quraytim fled to Fakhr al-Din's rival, the governor of Lajjun Ahmad Turabay.
