Ariel is also Frum. They don’t go up to the Har Habayis lightly. It’s a step in reclaiming it.

Amazing those who care so minimally (Moshe Feiglin excepting) about all other aspects of our religion

are so pious and religious when it comes to something so dubious as going up on the temple Mount?

Or presumably both flipsides of the same?

Moshe Feiglin has a Rov?

You better inform him

I was not referring to Moshe Feiglin, but rather to many others who go and certainly use these activists as a “shoulder to lean on”. Just a thought.

Let’s try this again: Sorry.

I am quite sure this is a silly question. But let’s say it is indeed permissible to go up to Har HaBayis provided the proper preparations are made. Are those who encourage people to go transgressing the lo sa’aseh of lifnei iveir lo sitein michshol since certainly these government officials and many other visitors are not being tovel etc.?

#1. You seem to have pasted something to your post in error.

I know for a fact that Moshe Feiglin does go to the Mikvah first and follows all requirements necessary. He has written about it many times. He is following the Psak from his Rov.

I assume that the others who are Frum did do the proper preparations.

In terms of others who may go but not do the proper preparations, the same can be said about any issue that someone with little or no knowledge does after seeing something that any of us do without them having the complete picture.

Since you have a meat issue in your post, lets say someone not Frum sees you kashering meat and takes meat that wasn’t shechted properly and kashers it the same way, are you responsible for their actions?

Its an excellent question but YWN moderator does not allow a proper answer to be posted since it would explain why going up to Har Habayit does not cause the Lifnei Iver.

In the past direct quotes from the Rambam were not allowed – so I think you will have to contact Yehuda Glick in Israel.

Why not track him down – he speaks English fluently.

Call him and demand an answer!
