If I take off my Tallis to go to the bathroom, do I make another Bracha when I put it back on? 

  No, unless you completely diverted your attention from putting it back on or if a few hours have passed. Regarding Tefillin - see here: https://asktherav.com/11190-2-if-i-take-off-my-tefillin-to-go-to-the-bathroom-do-i-make-another-bracha-when-i-put-it-back-on/   Source: Alter Rebbe's…

I bought a new Tallis before the three weeks started. Can I wear it for the first time on this Shabbos which is during the nine days?

  No.   Sources: אסור ללבוש בגדים חדשים בשבת חזון - מג"א תקנ"א, ו. משנ"ב שם, ס"ק ט. ומה גם שה"ז בגד חשוב. ראה אג"מ או"ח ח"ד סימן פ. רבבות…

  • מעשה רב

I’ve seen in pictures and videos that the Rebbe’s Tallis doesn’t have the knots on the edges like all Taleisim have. Why did the Rebbe remove them? Did the Rebbe untie the knots or cut them off? Is this something that a chossid should be doing as well?

  Although obviously I can not answer why the Rebbe does something, we can try to explain the minhag of those who are particular about this matter, to the best…

  • birchas kohanim, duchan, kohen

If I am in a Shul where the Kohanim Duchan but I do not have a Tallis on, should I put one on just for Birchas Kohanim? That happened to me this morning, and I put it on without a blessing, because I was not putting on for the sake of the Mitzvah.  

  It depends, if you are a Kohen or not. The Kohen must wear a Tallis. Although it is not critical to Birchas Kohanim, and is purely a matter of Minhag, this…
