Parshat: Ekev
Yalkut Yosef: O"H 328
A person who has been instructed by a doctor to break Shabbat in order to heal himself is not allowed to be strict and not do so. A Holeh who needs to break Shabbat but decided not to must be told that he is not doing something commendable. On the contrary, it is false piety and is a terrible thing. Moreover, one who does so will be punished by HaShem the same as anyone who damages another person. If necessary, treatment should even be administered against his will.
The DSH is brought to you in memory of Rabbi Mordechai ben Daniel. Please visit us online at sephardichalacha.org |
