  JewishEncyclopedia.com - DISKIN, JOSHUA LÖB BEN BENJAMIN:
There, too, he became a center of controversy by forbidding in 1889, a Sabbatical year, the cultivation of land in Palestine, though several Russian rabbis, among whom was Isaac Elhanan Spector, had decided to the contrary.
He founded at Jerusalem an orphan asylum in opposition to a similar institution established by the liberal Jews, prohibited the use of the English missionary hospital, and refused Jewish burial to patients who died there.
Diskin was once accused of having been guilty of actions unbecoming a rabbi, but the charges were groundless.

 JewishEncyclopedia.com - DISKIN, JOSHUA LÖB BEN BENJAMIN:
At thirteen he married Sarah, the daughter of a good family of Volkovisk, known later as "Die Brisker Rebitzin." Diskin obtained a rabbi's diploma at eighteen, and seven years later succeeded his father as rabbi of Lomza.
Compelled again to leave the town, Diskin decided upon settling at Jerusalem.
The statement that Diskin was opposed to colonization in Palestine is not correct; he was not opposed to those who went with sufficient capital to buy and till land.
