Definition

  1. Any object that a person is careful with and because of it’s value one wouldn’t use for anything other than it’s designated purpose, is considered Muktzeh Machmat Chisaron Kis. [1]
  2. Regarding merchandise that can be sold, if the owner is particular not to use it, it’s Muktzeh Machmat Chisaron Kis, however, if the owner isn’t concerned that it’ll get ruined, it’s not Muktzeh. [2]

  2. A item which is Muktzeh Machmat Chisaron Kis during Ben HaShemashot even if it breaks on Shabbat and now one isn’t careful with it because it’s no longer expensive is Muktzeh all of Shabbat. [4]
  3. Merchandise which is meant to be sold, if the owner is particular not to use it, it’s Muktzeh Machmat Chisaron Kis, however, if the owner isn’t concerned that it’ll get ruined, it’s not Muktzeh. [5]
  4. A board of wood which is owned by a carpenter or a store owner who plans on selling it is Muktzeh Machmat Chisaron Kis if it’s the usual case where the owner is concerned about using it for other purposes (sitting on it) so that it doesn’t break. [6]

Examples

Papers

  1. Business letters, building plans, account documents, passports, and identification certificates are Muktzeh. [9]
  2. A loose leaf binder that contains commercial documents, building plans, account documents, passports, or identity certificates is considered Muktzeh and shouldn’t be moved. [10]
  3. Blank pieces of paper are Muktzeh. If a loose-leaf binder has pages with content together with blank pages, and the pages of content have some importance and one sometimes reads them, then, the binder is not Muktzeh and one may turn the blank pages in order to reach the pages of content. However, if the pages of content aren’t of importance and one doesn’t read them, then the binder as a whole is Muktzeh and should be moved. [11]
