The following issues are discussed by Rabbi Raskin in this week’s episode:
- To recite עלינו with the Minyan that is ahead of oneself: [1]
- May one lay Tefilin with visitors to a cemetery, at a distance from the graves? [2]
- On Shabbos, a non-Jew asks to borrow my jump-start equipment. May I show him where the appliance is, and may I direct him how to use it? [3]
- Is there a permissible way to bathe parts of one’s body on Yom tov? [4]
- I know that there is a preference to burn one’s nails that have been trimmed. What if that would entail a delay? [5]
- Our block of flats has a communal bin. The weekly collection is Thursday AM. May we place Chometz waste in that bin Thursday PM or later? [6]
- May I leave a suet cake in my garden over Pesach, for birds to feed on?
- Our pet chickens feed on grain. What should we do for Pesach? [7]
- May one give a Pesach Matzo to a non-Jew? [8]
- When should UK citizens change their clocks when it’s during Yom Tov?
- The prevalent practice in Chabad is that on Pesach we only use fruit and vegetables that are peeled. What about peeling mushrooms?
- An exception to the above is the lettuce used at the Seder. How about using the inner leaves of a head of lettuce during the rest of Pesach?
- May one drink wine or grape juice on Erev Pesach? [9]
- May our non-Jewish staff set the tables on Shabbos in preparation for our communal Seder on Motzei Shabbos? [10]
- Are we particular to avoid selling real Chometz? [11]
