  • Netilas Yodayim (Seudah)
  • או"ח קסב, סדר נטילת ידים

May one use a water bottle to wash his hands for Netilas Yodayim (for a meal)?

  It is better to use a regular kvort or cup with a larger opening. If no other choice exists, one may use a water bottle, however one should make…

  • chatzitzah, סדר נטילת ידים

My son got stitches on his hand and the Dr. said he cant get it wet. How do I go about Negel Vasser or washing for bread?

  Regarding Negel Vasser: He should wash the other hand and whatever possible on the wounded hand (at least the fingers if possible). חמור נטילה זו מנטילה לסעודה, וכדברי אדה"ז…

  • Negel Vasser, Netilas Yodayim (Seudah)

I need to have a cast for 3 weeks. So, for Birchas Hashachar, and for bread, I’m only washing my left hand. Do I say ‘al netilas yodoyim’?

  • washing hands for wet foods, דבר שטיבולו במשקין

Is chicken considered something which is eaten with a fork (and therefore if it is wet you still do not need to wash your hands for it)?

  • nine days: cutting nails

My nails are long and protruding and I was not able to cut them before Shabbos. Is there any Heter given this year -that Tisha B’av falls on Shabbos- to cut my nails during this week before Shabbos Tisha B’av?

  There is a Machlokes in this matter. Practically, we are only lenient L’kovod Shabbos. If the nails are extremely long, and can be a concern of Chatzitzah for Netilas…

  • Food, Netilas Yodayim (Seudah)
  • lifnei iver, potluck

We are having an office potluck and I signed up for bread. Then I realized that most of the people attending are Jewish but not religious. Most likely they will not wash before, or Bentch after eating. Do I need to bring something different?

  You should change that and offer something else. If you cannot change the menu, then offer Mezonos bread. If this is impossible too, then there’s room to be lenient…

  • Netilas Yodayim (Seudah)
  • Dovor Shetibulo bB'Mashkin, mashkin

Does washing your hands before eating a “Dovor Shetibulo B’Mashkin” apply by everything (let’s say cake or cookies in milk)?

  All foods which are immersed in one of the seven liquids (water, wine, oil, milk, dew, bees honey and blood) unless it’s normal to eat with a spoon.  …
