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
To my eyes it does not seem questionable. So much so, that it took me some time until I realized what your question might even be... (I'm assuming that it's a bit wide).
ReplyDeleteAccording to you there is no problem or that it's clearly pasul?
DeleteI'll be honest: I couldn't see the problem...

DeleteThis is a serious shaila. I suggested to the customer to replace the mezuzah so I didn't have to pasken whether it was a psul or shailas tinok. My leaning is to pasel. I hope to eventually show it to Rav Friedlander for my edification.
DeleteTo clarify, I didn't suggest to replace it to get out of paskening. I meant, I wasn't forced into having to pasken...
DeleteI would say that that's a kaf with taggin.

ReplyDeleteLooks pasul to me
ReplyDeletefor those that are saying it's a She'alas Tinok, do you have to cover the Tagim? To me, after covering them it looks live a safek Chaf or Bais
ReplyDeleteExactly, that's why the Tinok has to decide. You only have to cover the Tagin if the Tinok would be smart enough to know it's a nun just by the Tagin. Which might make him a תינוק חכם anyway
