Reply To: Aura of Shabbos

Yosi7 – The Shemiras Shabbos K’Chilcasa was a talmid of HaGaon HaRav Shlomo Zalman Auerbach zt”l. In Chapter 46 of his sefer, he paskens not like you said. Why was he paskening differently from what his rebbi said?

The best thing to do, in my personal opinion, is to follow the ruling that one should daven Mincha by himself before shkia, since that is how the Shemiras Shabbos K’Chilcasa holds in his sefer, as well as Rabbi J.B. Soloveitchik and others.
