Hagaon HaRav Chaim Kanievsky Says To Be Maspid Maran Rav Shteinman Even Though His Will Said Not To


Despite the will of the late Gadol Hador, Maran HaGaon HaRav Aharon Yehuda Leib Shteinman ZT”L, who, in his most humble manner, instructed not to eulogize him and not to write about him in the newspapers, on Wednesday morning 25 Kislev, many began being maspid the late Gadol Hador.

HaGaon HaRav Chaim Kanievsky explained what was behind explicit instructions of Maran Rav Shteinman [in the will that stirred Klal Yisrael], that the request not to have hespedim applies to family members and not Klal Yisrael. Rav Kanievsky has ruled that we may and should honor the memory of the late leader of the generation.

Rabbi Yitzchak Shul Kanievsky on Wednesday morning published a letter upon instructions from his father, to be maspid the late Rav Shteinman, despite what appears in the will.
