Mussar: Don't Torch Your Houses!

Remember
Hamira Sakkanta Mei'usrah

Danger is more severe than a prohibition!

Sefer Mitzvot Katan, Mitzvah 98 (page 93 in my edition):

...[we do not search for chametz] using the light of
a torch [abukah] because the searcher could become
distracted, and the house might burn down...

MODERATOR COMMENT:
Searching for chametz using candles has repeatedly
KILLED JEWS and DESTROYED THEIR HOUSES!!
Use flashlights only to search for chametz!!

Amein!

Have a hag kosher v'samei'ach and a safe and healthy one, too!


Shalom,
RRW
