Description
1) Feedback on shape of Tallis-Koton: details of the TK of the Previous Rebbe זי"ע:
2) I’m visiting Tromso (69° N) next month. There
will be no daylight. How do I work out times for Shabbos & Tefilos?[1]
3) One who said he will give a specific amount of money to a Shul. He has since fallen out with that community. Is he still obliged to donate the amount he said he would give? Could he give that amount to a different Shul?[2]
4) When washing Netilas Yodayim in the morning, our custom is to say the brochoafter drying one’s hands. Why not before drying, like when washing for bread?[3]
5) May Chafing-Dish fuel be used for lighting Menorah?[4]
6) At Shabbos lunch we ate challa that was warmed in an oven with meat. Must we wait six hours before having pizza after Shabbos?[5]
7) Reuven is making an event on Sunday and he needs a singer. The Friday before the event, Reuven meets Shimon and offers him the job. Shimon agrees and gives his price, to which Reuven was agreeable. Within the hour Shimon re-evaluated and decided that he had undercharged. He immediately informs Reuven. That afternoon Reuven confirmed that Shimon has the job. Sunday, after the event, Reuven pays Shimon the revised price, but alleges that Shimon had been dishonest. True?[6]
8) I wish to travel immediately after Shabbos to be a madricha at a Havdolo-event in another part of town. The head-madricha will drive us. Are we permitted to walk over to her house on Shabbos to be ready to ride with her right
after Shabbos?[7]
9) May I sell stuff on Amazon that may sell on Shabbos?[8]
10) Why is there a preference in Chabad to have the lining of the Tallis, and the corners, made of silk cloth?[9]
