When the Sefardim came to Israel, the chilonim cut their simanim (peyos) off. Later on, the Ashlenazy charedim cut their ba**s off :-)<br /><br />Shabbat Shalom all!Markhttp://twitter.com/Marksoflanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-82812400402630643622011-03-11T17:44:11.234+02:002011-03-11T17:44:11.234+02:00Quite interesting.

A case can be made that minhag Eretz Yisroel is minhag Ashkenaz or other derochim. There are different shitos on the matter.

Charedi elementary school takanon overrides Sefardi psak!<br /><br />Reminds me of a story I heard of an imminently-engaged couple in their 50's - she asked a big Rav regarding his Lubavitch tendencies. The Rav said unless he agrees to sleep in the sukkah (i.e. against Lubavitch minhag), don't marry him. She called it off.MiriamSnoreply@blogger.com
