CURRENT TOPIC

Review of Halachos of Sefiras HaOmer

1) It is prohibited to denigrate and talk disparagingly about a person even after he/she passes away.

 

2) There is a “Cherem Kadmonin” , an ancient rabbinic condemnation leveled against one who speaks negatively about the deceased, and it is recommended to be careful with this at all costs. (See commentary of the Mordechai beginning of 8th Perek of Bava Kama. See also Shulchan Aruch Orach Chaim Siman 606:3)

 

This applies regarding any deceased people, even if they were not Torah scholars, and all the more so about a Torah scholar.


Furthermore, it also applies to disparaging the Divrei Torah of a Talmid Chacham who has passed from this world.


Reader Submitted Questions of interest on topics related to Halachos we covered, as well as other topics, and Answers. These Q&A are taken from the Q & A  pages on the Halacha For Today website.
 
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Although the answers I give to questions are taken directly from, or based upon, the Sifrei HaPoskim, and aren't my own, they are still for study purposes only, NOT for Psak Halacha. 

Questions can be emailed to Ben@HalachaForToday.com  

Reader's Question:


Have you seen the obligation to say/hear 4 kedushas and 10 kaddish on a daily basis?



Answer


Yes. See Aruch Hashulchan Siman 55:4 quoting the Kadmomim that every person should try to fulfill the word TZADIK every day.


Tzadik=90 Amens. Daled= 4 Kedushos . Yud=10 Kadeishim. Kuf=100 brachos.


Each day, we will B'Ezras Hashem post a short inspirational thought, quote or idea to help us all improve our lives and grow in our service of our Father in Heaven, HaKadosh Baruch Hu.

Patience is not the ability to wait; it's the ability to keep a good attitude while you wait.

Our holy sages, the Chazal tell us  
  תנא דבי אליהו כל השונה הלכות בכל יום מובטח לו שהוא בן עולם הבא, שנאמר הליכות עולם לו, אל תקרי הליכות אלא הלכות 
- one who studies [at least two] Halachos daily is assured a portion in Olam Haba -  the world to come.   (Talmud Niddah 73a)

Important Disclaimers:

The Halachos in this email and on my website are based on my personal understanding of the texts quoted, and are for learning purposes only, NOT for Psak Halacha L'Maaseh. If you have questions or require further source information, please email Ben@HalachaForToday.com and I will respond as soon as I can.

All Halachos on this site were written from an Ashkenazic perspective and follow the rulings of Ashkenazic Poskim. Though I endeavor to point out whenever Sephardic rulings and customs differ from what I write, by no means have I adequately researched the Sephardic point of view of any Halachos that I write and my dear Sephardic readers should please review all rulings with their own Chachamim.
