LAB: If he were hanging up diamond and pearls in your Sukka, which he was gifting to you, you wouldn’t call the cops. Your eyes would be wide opened as you profusely thanked him.

If a stranger came and started hanging diamonds up in my sukkah without permission, you’d better believe I’d be calling the cops.

Most likely they were stolen and being planted in my sukkah.

Bottom line, no one has the right to touch me or my clothing (including my tefillin) without asking me — even if they’re out of place. By all means, *tell* me my tefillin’s out of place and even offer to move it, but don’t actually do so without asking.
