A door handle that falls off may not be re-attached to the door on Shabbat because it is a form of building. Therefore the handle is muktzeh and may not be moved. However, a door handle that is made to be taken out of the door when not in use is not muktzeh. Keys are not muktzeh. They are considered to be a kli shemelachto leheter. They can be moved for any reason, although not for no reason, like any other kli shemelachto leheter. A mezuzah that falls off a doorpost may be moved since one can use it to learn from the pesukim written inside. If one forgot money, checks or some other muktzeh item in a garment he must shake out the garment before wearing it.
Special thanks to everyone who assisted in getting the DSH up and running again!
The DSH is brought to you in memory of Rabbi Mordechai ben Daniel. Please visit us online at sephardichalacha.org
