Anyone familiar with these batim?
How about the Bais of Uleovdo?

Ink, Kosher vs. non-Kosher
We all know that there is no ancient source that requires ink to be מן המותר בפיך . Possibly, as said here before, because in the olden days ink was always מן המותר בפיך and the question was never raised. It was probably self-evident. Nowadays, no decent Rav will approve an ink which is not מן המותר בפיך . Who was the first one to raise this question? Was it raised because of animal ingredients or because of non-kosher wine?
The forum is back online...for reference and research purposes.
Dear Readers and Members, The forum has been down for over 6 months because the domain name (www.stamforum.com) lapsed and it is no longer available to re purchase. Although this forum is now defunct (it has morphed into several whatsapp groups), I have had many requests to put it back online because it contains so much information (over 1,800 posts and thousands of comments in the discussions, on a wide range of topics related to STa"M). I have therefore put the forum back online at blogger, so the address is www.stamforum.blogspot.com. The forum lasted for a decade...not a bad effort! It was pretty popular back in the days before whatsapp and managed to receive over a million hits in it's short life. It was one of the only organised forums in the STa"M world and definitely the largest in it's heyday. I would like to thank all those who cobtributed over the years, particularly the early members who helped build it up. Thanking you all, Eli
Rabbi Moshe Shaul Klein is "the" talmid of Harav Wosner Shlita and one of the biggest Rabbanim in our generation (you may decide for yourself if you like his Hechsher). I met Rabbi Yakov Yitzchok Klien in my office at The time of the peeling retzuos scandal on Retzuot under his supervision, personal impression is a small rebbele type yungerman, maximum like a corner shul Rabbi,not a posek.
ReplyDeleteIs there a reason Rabbi Moshe Shaul removed his hechsher?
Someone came to me for guidance when he was considering tefillin via an organization as he was able to get through them at wholesale. They typically assist with basic tefillin for kiruv but he wanted to get a mehudar pair through them. I requested lots of information and when i heard that the batim maker he uses dropped Rav MS klein for the other Rav Klein because "Rav MS klein's hechsher was too expensive" I suggested that this person not get tefillin from this source. I'm also aware of the peeling and the lower standards of the hechsher.
