Transcript
- 0:00OK, good morning. We're going to continue with DNA
- 0:04of Kassem or Ksamim. Simon Kuftzadi, we are at Yud
- 0:09Olive today. So again Kuftzadi, see if Yud
- 0:13Olive. Just going to take a quick
- 0:15moment to discuss I guess a couple issues.
- 0:23Cotton is cotton macabre tuma, so if it's turned into to
- 0:30clothing, so it's a mahlocas just the kids are I'll just a
- 0:34few names, Maginavra and Mishnagura Shivan Levi Kuchani
- 0:39and Tara Tabait, for example, I'll ask in its tower.
- 0:43So cotton garments are cannot be macabre tuma.
- 0:46So if there's a stain and spotting, even if it's the size
- 0:49of a grease, it will not make a woman tamaya.
- 0:55However, we're going to get to undergarments in a moment.
- 0:59That makes a big difference. And Mara Cohen Mashima of El
- 1:04Yashi holds its because it's fashioned into clothing.
- 1:09It is metame. It is macabo tuma.
- 1:13OK, that's as far as cotton garments.
- 1:16Now what about undergarments? Because they are tightly pressed
- 1:22again, normal tightly, right? They're worn right up against
- 1:25the skin. Also Malcolm, Malcolm Irva and
- 1:27it's it's it's right there. Now I'm discussing any
- 1:34undergarments, any undergarments.
- 1:37The question is if they're not macabo tuma.
- 1:40If it's macabo tuma and it's white, so then there's no it has
- 1:44all the regular genium of Ketan. What about if it's something
- 1:52that's you would normally not say it has a den of Ketzen is
- 1:57undergarments or anything that's pressed up against the
- 2:00Elsomachum and it's it's basically seals it off.
- 2:03Does that change? Or if it's tightly against it?
- 2:06Let's we'll we'll wait for the the other caveat.
- 2:10So anyways, so undergarments, right, The underwear, it's right
- 2:12up against your skin in that area.
- 2:14So therefore it's a, it's a discussion.
- 2:19Some hold in other words, I'll post this we 'cause I don't
- 2:24really discuss it. We always just have the column
- 2:27that we had in the Shokanara and they did not wear undergarments
- 2:32right around their skin that way.
- 2:34So it wasn't an issue. Some post scheme nowadays hold
- 2:38that she is Timaea. There is DNA ketam for
- 2:43undergarments even all right, we're not talking about an
- 2:46undershirt, we're talking about underwear, right?
- 2:48That's even if it's colored and even if no colored, again, it
- 2:53depends if you can establish it's red.
- 2:56So Shyla's clock on that one. But the main issue we're
- 2:59discussing right now is let's say white cotton undergarments
- 3:04underwear. So since it's tightly against
- 3:06her some hold it has the same din as her skin, her flesh
- 3:12Bisara and when it comes to viscera, even though we
- 3:15normally. Say that.
- 3:20Cotton, Yeah, even though we most pinions hold cotton is not
- 3:25macabre tumor. So let's go on that one.
- 3:29Synthetic garments, cotton garments that, that on the
- 3:36assumption it's not macabre tumor, right.
- 3:39Certainly if it's a macabre tumor, there's a dinicatum if
- 3:41it's not macabre tumor. So then since it's against her
- 3:46skin, it has the same den as Viv Sarah as her skin.
- 3:50And therefore there are some certain humras by Viv Sarah
- 3:54versus garments we mentioned. So therefore there is a den of
- 3:59ketam, even if the garments not macabo Tuma another another
- 4:06again, I think it's a Dasyaki, but another reasoning for some
- 4:10who are a Mahmar to say that it's she has a den of Quetta is
- 4:19Dinamasa. We're not going to get into that
- 4:22now, but there's a den of tumantara of Masa, and that
- 4:25creates an an an extra issue get carrying, you know, tumas, masa
- 4:32Mamas sin aleph, but not for today.
- 4:37Just that was just to be complete.
- 4:40Now the opinions that say it's she's Tahor Lamaisa.
- 4:44So I just one opinion to throw out there is Tara Sabias.
- 4:47But ask your Rav and a couple of opinions to say it's she has a
- 4:52has a den of Tamaya of Ketem. That's Cheva de Levy and
- 4:55Khutshani. So that's when it comes to
- 4:59cotton garments. Now, what about pads?
- 5:04Sanitary napkins, Sanitary pads. So what's the din on that one?
- 5:10So a little bit similar to what we just talked about, cotton.
- 5:13So a woman, she's wearing pads. Again, we're not talking about
- 5:17tampons, that is, it's a Bedika spineme.
- 5:21But we're talking about just pads or napkins.
- 5:25It's worn right tight against the skin, right between there
- 5:29and the underwear. So what's the din?
- 5:31So some are Mochmer. Why?
- 5:35In other words? Well, the first, some say it is
- 5:38macabre tuma because it acts as a as a base kibble.
- 5:47It's made as a receptacle to catch the and it's not a real
- 5:52cup, but it is made to act as a receptacle to catch and hold the
- 5:56blood. So therefore it has a din of
- 6:00it's mishamish kakli Kibo, right?
- 6:03It acts as one and therefore it is macabo tuma.
- 6:06That's one opinion. Another one is we mentioned beef
- 6:09Sarah. We consider her skin because
- 6:11it's against her skin. Now the reasoning for those who
- 6:14are Mahmir is because it's a masa, you should has a din of
- 6:18masa and therefore it doesn't have to have that same base
- 6:20Kibo. Another opinion holds it's has a
- 6:24din of a Malbush because it's pressed up against her
- 6:28undergarments. So it becomes bottle and
- 6:32whatever applies to the undergarments.
- 6:34Again, we already we discussed that whether it is or isn't.
- 6:38But since it's pressed up against it, it follows the the
- 6:41Malbush and therefore it is considered a base kibble.
- 6:45I mean it's considered a able to be a macabo tuma.
- 6:49Another reasoning is because, so this is another Kashash that we
- 6:56mentioned before that when a woman has her period, we assume
- 7:01it's Tamaya. She's Tamaya de Araisa, even if
- 7:05there's no Hagasha and you don't apply all the rules of kettam.
- 7:13So when a woman's wearing pads, it can absorb a lot and you
- 7:16might not see a lot at first. Again, what is that amount?
- 7:20Where does the period count? All that's it's very it's not
- 7:24clear in the postscheme at all, but this is goes into one of the
- 7:28reasons and reasonings why if a woman has a pad, some will hold
- 7:32if there's a ketam cause the size of a grease, some will say
- 7:36she is tamaya because really maybe it's a lot more than a
- 7:39grease and it's the beginning of her period and therefore it's a
- 7:44din of Tamaya da Raisa not even bound by the rules of ketam.
- 7:50So those are all the rationales, the reasonings for those who say
- 7:54it's asser we will retreat her as a Tamaya and the reasonings
- 7:59for those who say it's not it's she's mutter 100% right, because
- 8:05we're talking about spotting right.
- 8:07It's not a Badika spinium and therefore we have all the rules
- 8:11of Ketan and all the Kulas that come along with ketan.
- 8:14So again, what are the reasonings is it's not a
- 8:18material that's macabre tuma. It is not a cup in the shape of
- 8:24a base kibble to receive. So therefore, again, it's not
- 8:28macabre tuma. Also, the garment is too small.
- 8:31We mentioned that in order for again, it depends on the size,
- 8:34but we did mention it potentially it's too small that
- 8:37there is a minimum shear of three by three.
- 8:39It's about that area. And if it's so, if that Beckett
- 8:44is too small, it doesn't it's not macabre Tuma and it can't
- 8:48follow the rules of and it follows the rules of KSAMI and
- 8:54it's not macabre tuma and therefore his sheet remains
- 8:57Sahara. Also, it's not woven.
- 9:00It's not a woven baguette. It's it's so that's another
- 9:04reasoning. And it's not worn as a baguette.
- 9:06You don't take it on and off. It's just a pad.
- 9:08It doesn't resemble A baguette and therefore it's not a
- 9:11baguette and it's not macabre tuma.
- 9:13So those are the two basic lines as far As for each one I and
- 9:19Sham and there's you know, for their for their proofs or or
- 9:22not, just to mention some names. Tara Sabaya says she's Tahoor
- 9:29Sheva de Levi and Raviolyashi if Paskin that she's Tamaya or that
- 9:32right, this item can make her Tamaya if it's like a Greece of
- 9:36blood. And I saw quoted with shame of
- 9:40show Mozam and Arabach. He holds that pads or any of
- 9:44these napkins and bandages. They're not in a Kabul Tuma.
- 9:48But I didn't, I don't know what he says in regard to pads
- 9:52because pads there is 2 issues we discussed.
- 9:56One is macabre tuma, the other one is it might have a din of
- 9:59beef Sara. So we know he holds it's not
- 10:02macabre tuma. But I don't know if he would use
- 10:06the parameter of beef Sara to make her tumay or not.
- 10:11So that's yeah, thank you. Let's see of a forest he just
- 10:22has. I don't know how relevant it is
- 10:24practically, but I'll just mention it.
- 10:26I didn't think about it enough. He says one way to avoid an
- 10:31issue to remain to remain Tahora.
- 10:37For those Machmer opinions, as he says, where right?
- 10:43If you want to avoid spotting making yourself Tahora, it's
- 10:46just to remain Tahora and you're going to be a mockamore.
- 10:50According to the mockamore opinions, he says wear 2
- 10:53underwears, colored underwear and colored napkins and put them
- 10:57in between to catch the beginning of the bleeding.
- 11:00And then this way you will avoid, at least according to
- 11:05most opinions, the problem of Katyn.
- 11:10Yeah. OK, or you can dye your clothing
- 11:12red or food coloring whatever. OK, fine, same idea.
- 11:17So that takes care of that intro.
- 11:19And then when we finish, you and Olive, we're just going to
- 11:24discuss one more time undergarments because we're
- 11:27going to we, you'll see changes a lot of things.
- 11:34The next 20 CFM, I'm going to be lots of examples.
- 11:39Principles are important, but the actual examples are not so
- 11:42relevant. You'll see based on our
- 11:44lifestyle and based on our undergarments, we'll see that
- 11:47some of these are not as practical as they used to be.
- 11:51So let's start, let's start going through it.
- 11:53Yudalov lo biko maqam Shim sashankatim timae just because
- 12:02she finds red on her garments, she's not necessarily going to
- 12:07become Timaea. Depends Ella Malcolm EF sheba
- 12:11sham minamakor. It has to be where it's possible
- 12:15that it can reach there, right? We're going to discuss this at
- 12:17the end regarding because now we have undergarments.
- 12:20It really seals the area. But let's let's focus on the
- 12:24examples from Fazal. So right, she was not wearing
- 12:28underwear and she's wearing, let's say, a skirt, a dress,
- 12:31whatever down to the floor. And so that's the normal
- 12:35scenario. So it has to be reasonable on
- 12:39the clothing that's you see the spotting of red of blood that
- 12:43it's possible it came from the Mufflemere, right from the McCoy
- 12:47relief from the fine, the inside of the direction.
- 12:50Kate said how, how? Let's see Nimza al Aqeva Tamaya
- 12:55if you find it on her heel, she's going to be Tamaya because
- 12:59it's very possible that it can reach there.
- 13:03As they point out, it's in particular, it's not, it's
- 13:06possible. Again, you don't have to know or
- 13:08not know, but since it's it's objectively possible, let's say
- 13:13a woman sits in a in a cross legged position.
- 13:17So it's very easy, for example, for it to reach there.
- 13:20I mean, it can drop, but also it's can get really close.
- 13:23You just sit like that. In Hebrew it's yeshiva Mizrahit
- 13:27and or in Natas it's called Kadera Khayushama alien.
- 13:32So that's that type of sitting. OK, let's go on the chain in
- 13:37Nimsa alka ore shoko parsotea mebifinim along anywhere along
- 13:43the inside of her thighs, her legs, her feet.
- 13:47Those are all areas where the blood can reach the hem on the
- 13:52como tanidubakim ZE baze, the aichita almod right?
- 13:56They touch there in that area. They touch to each other when
- 13:58she's standing right to the back regal by regal and her legs
- 14:03touch each other and it can jump from one.
- 14:04OK, let's keep reading. The shook bashouk shook beshouk
- 14:08the hen. I am nimza al rush good al
- 14:12raglia. If it also reaches the big toe,
- 14:15that's also we say reasonable for it to reach there.
- 14:19So we say she's Tamea Nicole Chicane al Raglia Mamas
- 14:23certainly on on on her legs. This says that.
- 14:27The derfish Mahabian is like when it sits with its feet
- 14:32under. The the feet, the feet under the
- 14:35buttocks. Oh, under, under their under
- 14:40their buttocks. You're right.
- 14:42OK. So like the Muslims when they
- 14:45when? They not exactly our cross
- 14:47legged different. OK, fine.
- 14:52Under the under the. OK OK, OK.
- 14:55Oh, like when bowing down. You're right, You're right.
- 14:57You're right. OK, I added that on to the side
- 15:00thinking and today I was putting them together.
- 15:03But you're right. The two separate things. 1 is
- 15:05like the bowing down position or kneeling position.
- 15:08That's the Taza's example or but any, any, the bottom line is it
- 15:12can reach there. OK, fine.
- 15:17Touching. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 15:21OK. The thing in Nimza, al yadda, a
- 15:25few all Kishra, it's built now that the fingers, the hands,
- 15:30that's all areas that can reach there because our hands will
- 15:33move around without us even realizing.
- 15:36I'm actually like looking down on myself right now and just
- 15:39realized I didn't even realize my hands were there.
- 15:41Just. Your hands can be anywhere
- 15:42without even realizing even while you're awake.
- 15:45So that is right. We know that by sleeping it's
- 15:48certainly but even even when you're awake.
- 15:52So that is another area right hands.
- 15:56We if you see blood on your hands, that's a problem.
- 15:58That's beef Sarah that what we say is a ketam, the Shema Nagu
- 16:01BA OSO Malcolm is maybe the hands touched in that area of
- 16:04all in Neemsa al Shukel, the AL Parsa Teya.
- 16:08Let's add hoots or Philo Miat stadium, the Ansari Klomar la
- 16:13mala me OSO Malcolm Tahara. But if a person, a woman, sees
- 16:18blood on her clothing or in her body, above a waist, above where
- 16:23it can be or on the outside of her legs, we say she is to hara.
- 16:28We assume it comes from somewhere else.
- 16:30And as the Taos puts it, we aim maxiquinan tuma MI makum le
- 16:35makum. We don't assume that maybe it
- 16:40went from the inside of the leg to the outside of the leg, the
- 16:43inside of the foot and then move to like we don't go for the, you
- 16:47know, the third or the tertiary or the third, right?
- 16:51There's the mukilm Erva. Then it could go to one place,
- 16:53but we don't assume it's going to bounce around or even the
- 16:56hands are going to make it move all around and that we don't we
- 17:00don't go that far. So therefore, OK, the EEM, let
- 17:06me see, right? And we say she's, as a shock,
- 17:12points out, we say she's Tahara even if she didn't go to a place
- 17:17as long as it's above her, above her waist or on the outside of
- 17:21her body. We don't say that.
- 17:23Maybe we say for sure she's Tahara, even if she has no idea
- 17:27that she went to a place where there's red or there's blood,
- 17:30like she went to a shook of a slaughterhouse.
- 17:33Even if she didn't go to any place where there's red paint.
- 17:37We no matter what, since it's not likely to come from the
- 17:40McCord, we say she's Tahara. OK, let's continue.
- 17:46Vimyodacha nis dakra. If we know, though she did some,
- 17:52I don't know, aerobic exercise or just some movement, some
- 17:55stretching, somersaults, whatever she did that she he
- 17:59could be a raglia lamala. But if she knows she lifted up
- 18:02her legs above you know wherever you know the waist, however,
- 18:07wherever could have lifted to become Malcolm.
- 18:19So then once we find it on her then and it can go above, then
- 18:24we say she is right since she gave a possibility of it going
- 18:30of the but being upwards we say that maybe that touched the
- 18:35garments and therefore she became tamaya.
- 18:41OK, I guess the amexiquin and tuma in Malcolm Malcolm by the
- 18:45taz was by the hands, but OK, let's yeah, the torso does like
- 18:52that so much. OK, fine, so I and sham, but OK,
- 18:57but doesn't change that doesn't change the halacha.
- 18:59What's an abstraction arc? Fine, Vidafka one second, but
- 19:07keep reading what we just said. You have to keep reading
- 19:11Vidafka, because yeah, we have to make when we read this, see
- 19:15if we have to make a distinction between the skin and the
- 19:19clothing. OK, so let's keep reading as far
- 19:22as when you're Tola to the shook the slaughterhouse or she was
- 19:26dealing with others stains or dyes or paint.
- 19:31So let's keep reading the Dafka Kishanimza al bisar Alavad.
- 19:35Now, if it goes above your waist, so then we say you're
- 19:40she's for sure Timaea, right? We didn't catch them if it was
- 19:46on her skin above the waist. If it was on clothing above even
- 19:51that was even if she goes by the slaughterhouse.
- 19:54But if it's on clothing above the waist, then we can say no.
- 19:58What takes precedence on our assumption is we say it was from
- 20:03the slaughterhouse or the Dai is in pain she was dealing with.
- 20:07So it's a little hierarchy of where you assume vadam al
- 20:14khaluka, vadav Kaminisalabasar, That's what we said.
- 20:19That's what we just read before aval IM nimsa al basar vagama
- 20:23khaluka. If you find it only on the
- 20:24clothing or on the skin and the clothing, then we say IM avra
- 20:30bashukshalta bahim anitaska bakhtamim.
- 20:33Then she was in a place where there's blood, in a place where
- 20:37there's paint. So then toleba Bain, when we're
- 20:40talking about paint that might look like blood, obviously.
- 20:42So then toleba Bain shanim salamata Mehagora should be a
- 20:46regular venim salamala mehagor. Then it makes no difference.
- 20:50We always say she's taller. We all if it's on the garments
- 20:53then we always are a Mako and assume it's from the from the
- 20:58the slaughterhouse. But from clothing for the skin
- 21:02we're more Mahumar and we say it came from the makor but medivar.
- 21:06But it all depends on each case individual the Mitzius and OK
- 21:12bermedvari memoriam. What are we saying?
- 21:16This applies kisha nimza khatim al bisara bilvat en atola.
- 21:20But if it's on only when it's on the skin, we're not told on
- 21:26that. Now we just said the skin takes
- 21:31precedence of Humora and we don't assume it came from the
- 21:35from the slaughterhouse. But however, again an important
- 21:40but about him Yesh maka begufa shekhola litlod bash EFSA shevo
- 21:46adami MENA told about it. But what's even more important
- 21:53takes precedence is a dumb maka. If a woman has some kind of a
- 21:57wound where there is bleeding from it or there was bleeding
- 22:00from it and maybe the scab opened up, if there is potential
- 22:05bleeding from blood from the wound on her skin, on her body,
- 22:09that we assume 1st. And so that takes us Lakula.
- 22:12We say it didn't come from the macor, it came from Imaka from
- 22:16her wound. But then afterwards, then the
- 22:21hierarchy is skin and then you can only afterwards, then you go
- 22:25to the the slaughterhouse. OK, the Imamaka biktafela
- 22:31vakhatim al Yuri haba Malcolm SH EF charlevonne hamaka temea.
- 22:36But it has to be a maca that can reach the area where she got the
- 22:41ketam. If it's if it's in an area that
- 22:45can't reach other than moving it with your hands, right?
- 22:49The hands is really the for sure the the thing that we're not we
- 22:52don't rely on, but if it's the maca where it's on her shoulder
- 22:57and there's no way I don't know, maybe on her back, whatever this
- 22:59situation is and there's no way to be right.
- 23:02It depends where you find the cat down.
- 23:04But if you have no way to be lethal that it went there, you
- 23:07know, rationally, reasonably so then she stays to Maya and we
- 23:12assume it came from the macor. Again, everything needs it's a
- 23:19cult and why is common sense whatever.
- 23:23Anyway, just to point out something nowadays because of
- 23:27garments that are underwear nowadays, which is generally
- 23:32speaking, where it's sealing the area.
- 23:35So again, we'll probably we'll continue tomorrow reading.
- 23:39Hopefully we'll get through most of the next run of CE theme,
- 23:43which are all basically examples and applications of what we
- 23:47already learned The but the main you saw that's important is
- 23:51nowadays when women have the area completely sealed.
- 23:54So that changes that changes everything, right, Because you
- 23:58can't be Tola. So Lacula, it means that if you
- 24:03find blood spots on your pants or on your skirt, on your
- 24:08whatever she's wearing or shirt, whatever it is, socks, whatever
- 24:12it is, you are not going to. But her undergarment is white
- 24:15and clean and there's nothing there or whatever.
- 24:18It's clean and it can't get out. There's no way for it to get
- 24:21there. If it's always there, then women
- 24:25are. It depends.
- 24:25But if part of the day she doesn't wear, she walks around
- 24:28or I don't know. But whatever it is, as long as
- 24:31it's always covered and sealed and it you, as long as that's
- 24:35clean from any bleeding and you see something somewhere else,
- 24:38then you always assume it came from somewhere else because it
- 24:41can't get there. It's as if it's on the top half
- 24:44the of the body from the cases of the of the mission and the
- 24:47Chauchnair. So therefore wearing
- 24:50undergarments makes a great cooler for Tamim, right for the
- 24:54rest of her clothing, obviously not for the not for the
- 24:56undergarments, not for the underwear that she's wearing
- 24:59right around the area. But it also means if that area
- 25:05has bleeding, then generally if you see spots on her
- 25:09undergarment that's sealed in that area, you often, again, it
- 25:12depends on the situation, but you often can't now be told on
- 25:14going to the slaughterhouse or dealing with paint because it
- 25:18goes it goes both ways, mostly Lakula, but it does go both
- 25:22ways. That was just pointed out from
- 25:24shave it allevi and piscate Tahara and and see others far.
