Storage rooms are obligated in Mezuzah. |
Michaber Y.D. 186:1-2
There is no Halachic benefit in making a Siyum Misechta by a bar mitzvah. If one holds that music may be played by a Seudas Mitzvah, then there is no need to make a Siyum Misechta, as the bar mitzvah itself is considered a Seudas Mitzvah. However, if one holds like the opinions who rule that music is forbidden even by a Seudas Mitzvah, then what use is there to make a Siyum Misechta, either way they hold its forbidden. |
See M”A 493:1; M”B 493:3 that the prohibition only applies by “Seudas Reshus”; Implication of Elya Raba 493:2; P”M 493 A”A1; Machatzis Hashekel 493:1 who permit dancing by a Seudas Eirusin; and so rule: Keren Ledavid 119; Igros Moshe 2:95 and in Even Haezer 1:97; Mishneh Halachos 6:109; Yechaveh Daas 6:34; Maharsham 493 in name of Daas Kedoshim; Minchas Yitzchak 1:111; Shraga Hameir 2:13; Rabbi Groner related to me that while the Rebbe’s opinion was to forbid music even during a Seudas Mitzvah, nevertheless, dancing is permitted.
Opinion of Admur: Admur 493:1 prohibits dancing by a Kedushin party, thus implying that one may not dance even by a Seudas Mitzvah [see Admur 249:8 that Seudas Eirusin is a Seudas Mitzvah], and certainly not by a Seudas Reshus. However, perhaps a Seudas Eirusin has Simcha Yiseira and is therefore forbidden, as opposed to other forms of Seudas Mitzvah. Vetzaruch Iyun.
No. You need to have another Shomer, especially at night. |
