Interesting Psak: Shabbos at War
In light of the ongoing war with Hamas and the threat of danger and incoming rockets at any time, the Chief Rabbis of Israel, Rabbi Dovid Lau and Rabbi Yitzcha Yosef, have issued a psak to the general public regarding what is needed to do over shabbos at this time.
They paskened that:
1. All instructions and guidelines from the Home Front Command must be strictly observed. If they say to stay home, stay home and dont go out, even for prayer services
2. Daven only in a shul that has, or has nearby, a protected area. Elderly and those who are unwell and walk too slowly, should daven at home and not go to shul
3. Whoever holds a license to carry a gun has a mitzva to carry the gun with him on Shabbos
4. If a siren is heard during the shmoneh esrei tefilla, go quietly to the protected area and then continue davening from where you left off
5. Try to have at least one armed person in every shul
6. Every shul should have a phone, placed there on Friday, to be available for use. When necessary one can keep his phone on silent and vibrate in his pocket
4. Leave the radio on tuned to the silent station to be updated by Home Front Command should it be necessary
Hatzlacha and hopefully it wont be necessary and will just be a precaution
