Ask a Lubavitcher Anything

[ushdadude]

Ask Shmuley Boteach. 🤣

Was he directed by the Rebbe to do this work?

No

[CountValentine]

He is funny though.

I guess I missed the joke.

You don't want a response to that, right?

Friday.

I hope Mashiach does not get crucified again the next time.
Countdown to lockdown 5, 4, 3...

Who has time on Friday?

[CountValentine]

Who has time on Friday?

Those who rest on Sunday. 

[EliJelly]

Those who rest on Sunday. 

If you can call it rest, sure doesn't keep you on your feet the day before.

Is the Ohel a minyan factory like 770?

Depends how busy it is

[koplonko]

Why don't you tell everyone about gan eden haelyon, I bet that'd go over well

Or that by the alter Rebbe it was called heichal moshiach (gasp)

[Onefishtwofish]

No

Often for mincha and mariv ppl gather to make a minyan. But there is no guarantee there will be a minyan other than the kavua times.

Right. So it's not a minyan factory. Lesson learned

It was a term in the 80s as far as I can recall.

Everything is relative.

As my mashpia in mesivta liked to explain:

Einstein's theory of relativity is very simple, if a man has 2 hairs on his head then he's bald, no hair! But if you have 2 hairs in your milk, it's full of hair!

Simple, see.

On Erev RH it is. I will not be surprised if throughout עשרת ימי תשובה that is the case.

No

So was the question if you'll need to wait more than 20 minutes for a maariv or if you can get a mincha after nacht?

Mincha 5 minutes before shkia. They were finishing the regularly scheduled mincha when I got there..

I really confused my zmanim there. Put it down to the time zone difference between Queens and Brooklyn

Bullshove about turning you into a shpitz void farmer who drinks zektz un neintzigger from a kvort while wearing a bendel and pretending to be a dish mushroom?

FTFM

To clarify, I knew I would be getting there closer to shkia, after mincha is usually scheduled. I was hoping there would be more minyanim though. Someone actually tried to stay one but only 3 of us didn't daven yet. This is not a knock on the Ohel ch"v

Is there ask a non-Lubab thread?
