While I am sure nobody had it out for Bahush and simply reported them out of concern regarding the CoronaVirus, Bahush feels it is now time for payback, rather than a time for the mending of fences.
The Bahush administration put up a sign in their shul announcing that anyone who had a hand in the reporting of their minyanim and open mikva to the police, even if they did so based on some hetter, are now banned, with all the force of a full din torah, from benefiting in any way from any of the Bahush institutions. This includes using the beis medrash, the mikva, the coffee room, the social hall for events, the free loan gemach and from receiving kimcha dpischa funds.

I guess it is their right to do so, but personally I would want nothing to do with them anyway. Besides for their flaunting of the rules in such an open and negligent way, they were willing to play with people's lives and put everyone around their shul at risk. I expect they won't ask for donations from those people either.

Agree with all that except "I expect they won't ask for donations from those people either." Sure they will. And they'll probably get it too! Oy!
ReplyDeleteWho are the Bahush? I've never heard of them before. Obviously not a large Chasidus.
ReplyDeletethere are so many of these small chassiduyuot, it is impossible to know them all. I never heard of it either until a friend of mine married someone whose family was connected to the Bahusher chassidut. They are from bnei Braq and that's where Bahush is located.
