Poster #5; Bezalel: The distinction of how the Shulchan Aruch Harav (Baal Ha Tanya)is addressed, depends by whom. If by a Chassid, then they simply say “Harav”. If by a non-Chassidic scholar, then they say “Baal HaTanya”. The Mishna Berurah addresses the author “HaGaon Reb Zalmen”. As for the content, and distinction bet. R. Caro’s (Not Cairo.)Shulchan Aruch. It is a compendium of the original Shulchan Aruch with some of the previous commentators’ works and his own opinion added sometimes.
