What about those jewish couples that got divorced and don't get remarried?   28:28 What does it mean to be a Jewish doctor? Are there certain halachos that need to be followed differently?    31:40 Does one get reward for wearing tzitzis at night or while sleeping?   34:40 Where does someone draw the line between bitul Torah and time for relaxing?   39:20 What’s the argument from Avraham to save Sodom?   48:00 I have recently started learning ערוך השולחן as my Halacha Sefer. What I find best about the Aruch is that, unlike the Mishnah brura, he always gives a psak. My question is whether i can I use this Sefer as my go to Halacha resource and can rely on all the aruch’s Psak, even if it goes against the MB and other more embraced piskei Halacha. Essentially, can the Aruch HaShulchan be my ‘rebbi’.   58:35 What Torah is exactly taught to the baby by the angel in the womb?   1:03:45 What is the origin of saying or not saying a bracha on mezonos by dessert at a bread meal?   1:09:00 When exactly should a davener interrupt to answer the chazan?   1:11:30 Should we consider learning the Netivos Olam sefer by Maharal in English?   1:15:25 What are the general principles of giving cavod to rebbeim?   1:19:07 How many people does a chazan have to wait for in order to begin the chazaras hashatz?   1:20:12 What’s the value of making a siyum?   1:22:02 If I am at a concert or sporting event, can I move to a vacant, more expensive seat assuming there is no chillul Hashem?  Is there a difference if I want to move to a less expensive seat, if it's superior in my eyes? Can I walk into a hotel and use the lobby bathroom without asking permission, or is this a form of gezel?   1:25:17 What are the parameters of doing certain acts of charity for a person based on their wealth?   1:28:42 Does the standing for a Rav minimally make a difference?   1:29:58 What makes a Rav merit to have their own psak? Like the GRA? Why is it accepted?   1:31:45 Is there a source for saying mazal tov by a simcha, and is this a tefila or a bracha?   1:34:10 When exactly should we say amen?    1:36:02 Does saying mazal tov count for loving my neighbor as myself?   1:36:30 Should I notify someone not to count me in a minyan if I already davened?   1:37:04 How should someone be sure that their humility is not coming from an arrogant place?   You can listen to this and many other Ohr Somayach programs by downloading our app, on Apple and Google Play, ohr.edu and all major podcast platforms.
