Mods, could we move all the posts regarding the LONDON to another thread? This one is for the Manchester Eruv. Thank you
We all wish Reb Moishe Katz, Eruv Project Manager, Mazeltov on the birth of a baby daughter last week! Lots of nachas. (He said that for the first Shabbos in 9 months his wife can go out in the street without carrying anything!)
The Rabbonim are working with the committee to implement changes to the eruv which will satisfy MOST rabbonim and shitttos. Obviously there will always be those who will still consider it problematic. The changes will take several months to complete.
In the meantime, though I do not yet carry in the eruv, it delights me to see those who do use it push their babies in the street etc on Shabbos, allowing them the freedom this gives them to be invited out for meals and go for a pleasant walk with their spouses.
But some people may think that EVERYTHING is now permitted to be carried. Many things are not, even with the eruv, and these complicated halochos need to be learned.
For example, it is not permitted to carry things that you will not need again this Shabbos. One should therefore not carry their tallis home after shul.
What about carrying your house key to shul for mincha on shabbos if you will only be returning home after maariv on motzei Shabbos?
PLEASE WOULD POSTERS GIVE OTHER EXAMPLES OF THINGS THAT MAY/SHOULD NOT BE DONE EVEN WITH AN ERUV. THANK YOU
