has some wiggle room.

Ten Minute Halacha
Answering YUr Shailos

Most halachas don't have much wiggle room.

Ten Minute Halacha
Answering YUr Shailos

There's a halacha that has some wiggle room.

Ten Minute Halacha
Answering YUr Shailos

Another indication that it has some wiggle room is the fact that the halacha kol paska lo paska yamosha, or for that matter, kol parsha, the paska moshe ben paskina, the lo paska moshe ben lo paskina, which is sugyam brachos, those halachos are not mentioned in the Rosh, the Riff, the Rambam, the Tur, the Shulchan Aruch.

So it's somehow absent from halachas for him.

Ten Minute Halacha
Answering YUr Shailos

In fact, there's a wonderful little contrast called Omer HaShikha where he goes through all the halachas that the Rambam or the Torah or the Shulchan Aruch or the Riff forgot to write.

Ten Minute Halacha
Answering YUr Shailos

And he tries to give some sort of explanation why they didn't quote certain things.

Ten Minute Halacha
Answering YUr Shailos

So he says, you know,

Ten Minute Halacha
Answering YUr Shailos

We don't find anyone who disagrees with this halacha.

to start with, before you say, to say, because then the Rashi Tevis, so the first four words that you say, are, so the question is, but wait a second, is part of another Pasuk, so, so the Archa Shulchan says, yeah, yeah, that's why people have a minute to whisper the rest of the Pasuk.

Ten Minute Halacha

meaning they say the whole Pasuk in order to address that issue.

Ten Minute Halacha
Answering YUr Shailos

Chassam Sofer says, no, you can't say the whole Pasuk, because the Pasuk says, the Gemara Darshans, the Hamisa,

Ten Minute Halacha
Answering YUr Shailos

We'd rather not mention Misa on Shabbos.

And therefore, he says, it's considered low F-shar.

Ten Minute Halacha
Answering YUr Shailos

That's quite a liberal definition of low F-shar.

Ten Minute Halacha
Answering YUr Shailos

You could just leave out the whole thing.

Ten Minute Halacha
Answering YUr Shailos

But apparently, the desire to want to have the remez of the Yud Kei Vav Kei

Ten Minute Halacha
Answering YUr Shailos

is enough that it's called low efshar, wild.
