kuba zanav or missing shiur parsha


Comments

  1. Someone told me that kuba / zanav does not apply to tefillin parshiyos, only mezuzah!

    Is this factual?

  2. Although this law is not clearly found in regard to tefilin, there is a psak of a yerushalmi rav [I forgot the name, of his shu"t] 100+ years ago that kal vachomer kuba is pasul in tefilin, and that is the minhag of the rabonim here in Yerushalayim to passel a kuba or zanav in tefilin as well.

  3. Reb Moshe, is there any way you can try and find the shu"t?

  5. I would have inferred that from the BY as well. Thoughts?
