..harav aron yuda (not yehuda) ben gittel

I once heard a shiur about being mispallel for a Godol who is choleh r”l. We don’t mention any titles etc. before the name when being mispallel for him. It’s not a time for showing ‘Maros’ or ‘Gadlus’. We just mention the name plain.

Note that his sefer Ayeles Hashachar is an acronym of his name with a yud. P.S. Please write names in english letters for those using devices without hebrew.

Could be that there are two similar stories then. The point here was a that even Frum people think we can please Hashem with only 70 per cent. But WE in turn expect MORE than 70 percent from HIM. NO one is content with 70 per cent Health Chas Visholom, or 70 per cent Nachas etc….

re: nameless

I think that story happened with a Rav and a Ba’al Teshuvah who wanted to know why we are so Makpid on even the tiniest Halachos, like spending hours checking the tops of our Lulavs for a tiny split…I heard this version from various reliable sources…

G’ Kop’s posts reminds me of a story I heard recently.
A Yeshiva Bochur once had a dilemma so he send an email to a rav with a shailah involving his tefillin. Apparantly there was an imperfection on his tefillin shel yad and he asked if Hashem will really be bothred abouth that slight imperfection. Cant he just proceed to daven with these tefillin.?
The Bochur waited a few weeks and never got a reply. Finally he wrote back and asked his Rav why he never responded.

The Rov replied’ I DID respond, however I must have omitted the DOT before the ‘com’ when I wrote your email adress!

Ofcourse Hashem knows who Rav Shteineman is but normally we say Tehillim for a Choileh WITH the mother’s name!

yuda and yehuda is the same name. Many people spell it Yuda (yud-vav-daled-alef) so as not to mistakenly write the shem Hashem.

I think we are making a big deal about nothing.

Besides let’s not forget the famous story from R’ Moshe (someone correct me if I am getting the story wrong), that once R’ Yaakov was sick and they were saying Tehillim and no one knew R’ Yaakov’s mother’s name. R’ Moshe said that you should just say R’ Yaakov, the Ribono Shel Oilam know very well who R’ Yaakov is.

I’m sure the Ribono Shel Oilam knows good and well who Rav Shteinam is.
