We all know that there is no ancient source that requires ink to be מן המותר בפיך .

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 ...
Yashar Koach for the post. I have a question about it. When does this Mogen Avrohom about five dots (סימן לו הקדמה ) apply?:

Or what does this "chamesh nikudim" mean?
הכוונה שהוי"ו יורד מעט מהשיטה, אבל לא שחלילה יהא ארכה ה' קולמוסין - דזה ןדאי [שיעור] נו"ן פשוטה
ReplyDelete? כמהמעט היא כן יכולה לרדת? ומה הפירוש נקודים?
DeleteAccording to m"b its posul,however the m"b is debatable since his source is ledovid emes who writes "if a tinok reads it nun sofit then its posul" i.e.only if a tinok reads it nun sofit then its posul but a tinok must not be asked since in safrus a long vav is still a vav. actually the mishna brura is the only one that brings ledovid emes keses and alter rebbe do not write that a long vav is a problem I agree that this one is extra long we should however take into consideration that the dalet next to it is very short we should compare to beis. alos in ksav from reb hersh sofer we see very very long vavs, I will try to post.
