Reply To: Not wearing a tie at Mincha on Shabbos

Israeli Chareidi – “Why would you want to institute a new minhag at all?”

Astrix – “..the world has come to this.Wearing a tie isnt a chiyuv at all so you shouldnt worry yourself with this shtus.

Following chumras causes depression and sadness”

I am talking about a chumra which is based on halacha. Women wearing jewelry on shabbos is not a chiyuv per say, yet the Rishonim (Rashi and Ran) say that a woman shouldn’t wear it at Mincha on Shabbos! Keeping halachic chumros and hanhogos are NOT depressing, chas v’sholom but enriching!

Israeli Chareidi – “why would you decide based on the opinion of the hamon am?”

A klal in Torah by hanhogas and chumros is “rov hatzibur yechulim” that the “hamon am” can or would accept. This forum is input from regular ordinary people who are yeshivish and machshiv Torah/halacha.
