0. A man whose Bris was done by a Reform Jew, need he do anything now? [1]
1) The Rebbeim were emphatic that children should be taught to read by identifying the Alef, the Komatz, and that together we have the sound O. This is: a) Halocho LeMoshe MiSinai; b) instrumental for their Yiras Shomayim. Could you please provide sources?[2]
2) I didn’t have my Tefilin in time for the Minyan for Shacharis; I expect to receive them shortly afterwards. Should I daven with the Minyan without Tefilin?[3]
3) When separating Challoh, should I wait until the dough has risen?[4]
4) I kneaded a Shiur of dough, but I wish to freeze half of it raw for next week. Should I say the brocho upon separating Challoh? [5]
5) On the 1st day of Succos – which was Shabbos, a Jewish man dropped in saying that he’s travelling tonight/tomorrow, could he take the Lulav? Should I allow him to do so?[6]
6) I have a metal sink that has two bowls. May I designate one for meat and the other for dairy?[7]
7) Bread that is not Pas Yisroel: if I toast it, does it now become Pas Yisroel?[8]
8) I got stuck in traffic close to Shabbos. Could I get into a taxi who will take me home, continuing to drive even once it is already Shabbos? [9]
9) A group-discussion of some Jewish students with their Chabad rabbi came up with the following question:
Reuven sees a grenade thrown by a terrorist, headed to fall on Shimon. Is Reuven permitted to intercept the missile, thus forfeiting his own life in order to save the life of someone else? [10]
10) We have a heating-cabinet. Its maximum temperature is 80°-185° Fahrenheit. May we place food inside before or during Shabbos? [11]
