    The above ruling of the MB causes sometimes not to have a minyan as people either daven beyechidus or rush out before the minyan arrives thus you don’t have six mispallelim.

    MB SA O’CH 233,14 It is better to daven beyechidus before shekiya than with a minyan after.

    Avi, I have seen at Landau’s following the Taz’s view who says halacha lemaaseh that they davened Shacharis in the half hour after chatzos. Logically it makes sense that all the time of the day some tefila is available.

    Not to misunderstand the above Radbaz, I will quote the Sharei Teshuva: (The place is misquoted)

    וכ”כ ג”כ הרדב”ז ח”ב סי’ שמ”ב אותן שאין מכסין הראש עושין שלא כדין וכן נהגו ומנהג אבותינו תורה היא ע”ש,

    If you think that this applies only to the brocho look at the Piskei Teshuva:

    פסקי תשובות אורח חיים סימן ח אות ח
    ח. להקפיד על כיסוי הראש בטלית כל עת התפילה וקריה”ת
    מ”ב סק”ד: וכתב הב”ח דצריך שיהא הטלית על ראשו מתחילת התפילה ועד סופה. שכיסוי זה מכניע לב האדם ומביאו לידי יראת שמים (- מ”ב בתחילת דבריו). מתחילת התפילה ועד סופה אין78 הכוונה רק על שמונה עשרה אלא מאדון עולם79 עד סוף התפילה, ומאד צריך להקפיד על כך כי עיטוף הראש בטלית בעת התפילה הגדירו הרדב”ז80 בכלל “מנהג אבותינו תורה”, והפוסקים התבטאו בלשונות חריפים על אלו שאין מקפידים על כיסוי ראשם בטלית, ואף עקב81 שהחום מעיק, שהם בגדר82 חצופים ומשחיתים ואין הם אלא קלי ראש, ועליהם83 הכתוב אומר (מלכים א’ י”ד ט’) ואותי השלכת אחר גוויך,
    וביותר צריך הש”ץ84 להקפיד על כך.
    ונכון להקפיד על כיסוי הראש בטלית גם בשעת85 קריאת התורה, וכלשון הב”ח “שראשו יהא מכוסה בטלית של מצוה כל שעה, שלא יהא רגע בגילוי
    הראש כל זמן שהטלית עליו, וכן הוא מנהג הצנועים”.

    These are the words of Radbaz about covering the head during tefiila as mentioned by the Sharei Teshuva SA O’CH 8:

    שו”ת רדב”ז חלק א סימן שמג
    ותו דקי”ל דאע”ג דיש לו ציצית בבגדו צריך שיעשה לו טלית להתעטף בו בשעת התפלה וכן נהגו כל ישראל

    Shockling is based on the pasuk כל עצמותי תאמרנה ה’ מי כמוך. There is a story when a rebbe said that you should shockle forwards and backwards indicating ‘yes’ and not sideways indicating ‘no’. Reb Moshe Feinstein ztz’l stopped shockling based on an incident where a Russian soldier pointed a rifle at him. He was so shocked that he could not move, so he decided to use this for davening in front of Hashem.

    Tosfas at the end of the first perek in Kidushin on the bottom of amud beis says that by the jews good machshovos are taken as actions but not bad which is the reverse by goyim. Explains the Maharsha that the Jews are basicly good, so if they think good, they will do it, but not bad. The opposite is true by the goyim. The Jews have 613 mitzvos because they are able to do it. They have a higher level of nashomo.

    The gemora tractate Brochos 5,2 says that they were against accepting pain from love, if it contributes to not being able to learn Torah. Pain from love brings us closer to Hashem getting punished in this temporary world rather than the next world.

    Hashem does not give more pain than what one can take. He does not want one should sway from Him because of pain. It is better to do mitzvos from joy being done from love rather than sadness forcing one to do mitzvos from fear. When one repents from love, he converts his aveiros done purposely to mitzvos because he makes Hashem happy when he is happy whereas from fear, zadonos became shegogos.

    The question is as by the meraglim, will the yeshuah come bidei odom or bidei shomayim without any human intervention? If we are worthy, gualas achishena, the yeshuah would be strictly min hashomayim otherwise we have to start building the bais hamikdash and the one of fire will come on top of it as is we say in nachem sorrunding it. What? The one we build.

    To explain why we cannot thank Hashem for all the good He does for us, the Dubner Magid in Parshas Pinchos gives a nice mashal. בדין הוא שיטול שכרו he deserves his just rewards. There was a wholesaler who took in a young man to help him out. They agreed that he gets no salary but room and board. Once they were in the middle of their Purim sudah when a retail person arrived wanting to be served. The wholesaler told him to come tomorrow because he is the middle of the sudah. The young man volunteered to serve him. and they made nice profit from it. When it came to pay others, he asked him what do I owe you? The young man told him, didn’t we agree that I only get room and board? He tells him I thought that room and board meant something to you, but here you sacrificed it for my needs, so I have to pay you something worthy to you.
    The fact that we are living a healthy life is a constant reward from Hashem, but by Pinchos sacrificing his life for the sake of Hashem he showed that Hashem was more important than his life and therefore he deserves his just rewards.

    Tosfas in Rosh Hashanah says that the Satan gets confused when we blow extra because he thinks that it is shofar of Meshiach. Why would he think so? The Ksav Sofer explains that there can be two times when Meshiach can come one is the fixed time b’ito and another before the fixed time, achisheno. We do teshuva from fear by haviing a king acting like Haman when Meshiach comes in its designated time but if we do teshuva from love, we can accelerate his coming before the designated time, achisheno. Rashi explans there, Rosh Hashanah 15, that when we blow extra, we show our love for mitzvos to Hashem thereby bringing Meshiach, so the Satan gets confused thinking that this is the shofar of Meshiach.

    klugeryid checks things out for himself. The question in Binyan Tzion 170 was about learning about an illness by autopsy for other similar illnesses that might occur.. Saving an individual through transplant is OK see the above Noda Beyehudah.

    This psak of the Binyon Tzion is hard to understand. If the deceased is patur from mitzvos than he is also patur from aveiros. I think that bizoyan hames is because of us. We are not being respectful to him. If a live father does thinks against the Torah, respect is not to listen to him. Similarly, the respect over here is to use the death person to save the person in front of us.

    The Noda Beyehuda above is in Second Volume YD 210. ubiq, The Binyan Tzion quotes this and explains that there is a difference to learn for the future or save someone being here as mentioned in the above. When it comes to abortion, see Oholas Mishna, (7,7) and the Rambam Hilchas Rotzeach (1,9) about rodaf.
