When he finished the job, I saw that the color was slightly different than what we agreed upon. I really prefer to redo the job entirely, but if Bais Din were to tell me that I need to pay for the job, I would just keep it as is. What is the halacha in this scenario?Answer: I was once asked a similar question; however, in that instance, someone's office was painted in a color that he felt was detrimental to his business. He had wanted a calm color and the painter had used a brighter, louder color, which he felt would harm his business. Since it would have to be repainted, the painter would not need to be paid for the first job, as one does not have to pay a yored whose work is not worth anything to him.The case in question is a borderline case because the owner says is technically okay with the job if he'll have to pay for it. The halacha in this case would be that he doesn't have to pay the painter as an employee because he didn't do the job he was asked to do; instead, he would only have to pay the value of having his office painted.Even if the owner says that he isn't interested in the job that was done and he wants the painter to undo it, that wouldn't really be possible with a paint job, as this is something that cannot just be undone. If one can make such a claim in a case like this is subject to a machlokes Acharonim. The Nesivos Hamishpot says that if it isn't possible to take the upgrade back, that claim cannot be made. The Chazon Ish disagrees and says that the owner always has the prerogative to make this claim and he can use it to refuse to pay for a paint job he doesn't want.If the case would go to Bais Din, the ruling would probably depend on who is the muchzik. If the painter hasn't been paid yet, the owner would be the muchzik and he would be able to exempt himself from paying if Bais Din sees that there is substance to his claim. If the painter has already been paid, he would be the muchzik and he could keep the value of the paint job.

Should each of us be setting up Shidduchim? What are the biggest challenges and difficulties? Is the “shadchanus” fee only paid to a professional Shadchan, or even to beginners? What does the Shadchan need to do to earn the fee? Can you set up two non-observant Jews? One frum and one not frum? Two non-Jews? What advice do professional Shadchanim have for amateurs? ***Guest Hosted by Ari Wasserman *** , Maggid Shiur, Yerushalayim with Rabbi Moshe Walter – Rabbi of Woodside Synagogue Ahavas Torah and noted author – 13:41 with Rabbi Dovid Schoen – Av Bais Din for The Bais Din of Florida – 39:16 with Mrs. Miriam Levitan – Noted Shadchan, Eretz Yisroel – 1:09:49 with Shlomo Lewenstein – Noted Shadchan, Lakewood – 1:09:49 with David Katzoff – “amateur” shadchan – 1:49:11 with Noah and Ruchama Tradonsky – “amateur” shadchanim – 2:09:53 Wrap-up, takeaways and lessons learned – 2:32:20 מראי מקומות

Halachos for giving birth on Shabbos and Yom Tov by HaRav Yosef Braun --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mikvah/support
1) Wheat-bread doesn't treat me well. So, for Lechem Mishneh, is it essential that I partake of a kazayis thereof?[1] 2) At our refugee-hotel, we have repurposed an ottoman bench as an Oron Kodesh. A) Is that not disgraceful? B) Once we leave, does the bench retain Kedusha status?[2] 3) We are moving IYH into a new Chabad House. The safe which we used as an Aron Kodesh - if we can't find another shul that wants it, may we sell it to a goy?[3] 4) Does the flat roof of our warehouse (intended to be accessed for maintenance purposes only) require a fence around?[4] 5) If yes, would the use of bars suffice? (Top bar: 1100mm; Middle bar: 550mm)[5] 6) Feedback on Mincha right before sunset and Maariv right thereafter:[6] 7) May a Jewish doctor make a house-visit late at night to a non-Jewish female patient? Does it make any difference if her son is present?[7] 8) Is a heated floor in a mikvah an issue for Shabbos?[8] 9) I've heard that the Rebbe advised one whose father is not Jewish, to immerse in a mikva before a Bais Din. Do you have any information about this?[9] 10) A challah-dish that has the name of Hashemwritten in full – may it be used?[10] 11) May I market Esrogim from Eretz Yisroel that are Shmitta produce?[11] 12) When Avodah Zoroh is mentioned in Torah as Elokim Acheirim, since the words have no sanctity, why don't we pronounce it Elohim Acheirim?[12] [1] ראה פסקי תשובות סי' עדר סק"ו. [2] ראה או"ח סי' קנד ס"ב שבית מושכר אין לו דין בית הכנסת. ומסתבר דה"ה בנדו"ד. [3] פסקי תשובות סימן קנד סק"ח. [4] בשו"ע אדה"ז חו"מ דיני שמירת הגו"נ מבואר שגגים שלנו פטורים ממעקה כי אין רגילות להשתמש בהם. וכ"ש בנדו"ד שהוא ביח"ר. [5] בס' ועשית מעקה (ב"ב תשס"א, סי' כז) האריך באם מעקה הוא דין מחיצה או שמירה. ואילו היה כאן חיוב מן הדין, היה עלינו להחמיר. [6] ראה שוע"ר סי' רסז ס"ב; מגן אברהם סי' רלג סק"ז. [7] ראה [8] ראה שוע"ר סי' שכו ס"ד. אלא שאם נחמיר בזה, כל שכן שצריך להחמיר בבריכה גופי'. [9] ראה אוצר מנהגים והוראות על יו"ד ע' ר; פתחי תשובה לאבן העזר סי' ד סק"ב.

Rav Dr. Joseph Breuer (1882-1980) was a visionary leader who successfully rebuilt the Kheilla of Frankfurt of Kahal Adas Jeshurun on American shores. Born to his parents Rav Dr. Solomon Breuer and Sophie Hirsch, daughter of Rav Samson Raphael Hirsch, he moved from Hungary to Frankfurt as a child. He later became the Rosh Yeshiva of the Frankfurt Yeshiva. Following Kristallnacht in November 1938, he managed to escape with his family, arriving in the United States in February 1939. He immediately set out to establish a fully structured kehilla, not limiting his position to congregational rabbi. With a goal of establishing institutional completeness, offering the full gamut of religious, educational and social services within the kehilla infrastructure, while maintaining its total independence. The twin goals of Austritt (separation from communities who didn't share Torah values), along with Torah Im Derech Eretz (integration into surrounding society without compromising on Torah values) were to be the guiding lights of the kehilla, and would permeate its myriad of institutions. Incredibly, with the assistance of a dedicated cadre of members of the community, within a few years he built a mikva, schools, shul, kashrus supervision, Bais Din, secondary schools, a publication society and much more, while the membership grew to over 800 families. He passed away at the ripe old age of 98.
