Prohibition #6: The Destroying prohibition
See “The laws of Building and destroying on Shabbos” Chapter 2 Halacha 16 for the full details of this prohibition. The following is its summary:
|
One may only destroy a vessel [as opposed to disassemble[1]] if: A. It is not attached to the ground And B. It cannot hold 40 Seah And C. It is considered a non-sturdy vessel [or is sturdy but one asks a gentile to break it as will be explained] And D. One does not intend to make a nice-looking opening. And E. One needs to destroy it for a Shabbos need.[2] |
_________________________________________________
[1] Its laws were explained in Halacha 5 above. The only difference between this case and a vessel made up of individual parts is with regards to that the latter is allowed to be destroyed even not for a Shabbos need. [See Ketzos Hashulchan 119 note 18]
[2] The only difference between this case and a vessel made up of individual parts is with regards to that the latter is allowed to be destroyed even not for a Shabbos need. [See Ketzos Hashulchan 119 note 18]
