Chsash tzuras ois beis

Thank you R'Gutnick for adding me to the forum.
Some time ago harav wiener posted a similar case on his blog where the chof was touching the top right corner of the tof and he wrote that if the negiah was bshas hakesivah it is a problem.
I was wondering about this case in the picture if the same din applies and if anyone is aware of any kulah's to save this Mezuzah.

    A gut voch,

    The problem is that the negiya has already been scraped. How do we know if it was touching strongly or lightly or if even at all? (many sofrim and magihim scrape korov negiyos)

    ובהיכא דנדבק רגל ך' פשוטה בגג בדלי"ת שבשורה שתחתיה, מצד ימין של הגג דנראית אות ך' כמו בי"ת ארוך, נראה לומר דמותר לגרור הדיבוק להפרידם, ואין בזה משום חק תוכות, ובתפילין אין בו חשש שלא כסדרן אחר התיקון

    if the sofer has ksav kabale we can assume he knew the halacha ( כמו שמצינו בנקב)

    I don't think it can be automatically assumed that all certified sofrim are aware of this. The metzius does raise some level of chashash that the sofer didn't know what he was doing or isn't a yareh shamayim. It certainly can be a tzad to be mekel as can what R' Eli mentions above.

Ink, Kosher vs. non-Kosher

By -
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?

Question to Yosef Chaim B

By -
Thank you for commenting on my ink article. In your comment you stated: "Many poskim disagree... Many rishonim have clearly stated the use of our ingredients." Would you please be kind enough to teach us (so I can include it in the article) which Poskim and what exactly and where did they say that the עפצים וקנקנתום  type of ink is preferable over good quality דיו עשן  that does not fail? We are not interested in biased פילפולים , or in those who said that  דיו עשן is not being used because it fails easily or because it was not known how to make good quality דיו עשן.  Nor are we interested in those who said to use  עפצים וקנקנתום וגומא ואין לשנות when they discussed specifically the עפצים וקנקנתום type of ink. We are interested to find out where and who (if any) said explicitly, based on sources, that the  עפצים וקנקנתום  type of ink is preferable over good quality דיו עשן , even when there is  דיו עשן  of good quality that does not ...
