# Instructing one non-Jew to tell another non-Jew to do a forbidden activity on [[Shabbat]] is a major dispute and many hold that one should use this leniency unless there’s a mitzvah need, a financial loss, or if it’s done before or after [[Shabbat]]. <Ref>39 Melachos (Rabbi Ribiat; vol 1, pg 72). Sh"t Chavot Yair 46 says if you tell one non-Jew to tell another one, that is permitted even for torah violations and certainly for violations that are only midirabanan | # Instructing one non-Jew to tell another non-Jew to do a forbidden activity on [[Shabbat]] is a major dispute and many hold that one should use this leniency unless there’s a mitzvah need, a financial loss, or if it’s done before or after [[Shabbat]]. <Ref>39 Melachos (Rabbi Ribiat; vol 1, pg 72).

# Some say that it is permitted to ask a non-Jew to ask another non-Jew to do melacha on Shabbat, while others argue.<ref> Chatom Sofer OC 60 relies upon the Chavot Yair only in a case where one asked the non-Jew before Shabbat. Biur Halacha (307:2 s.v. afilu) argues that we shouldn't accept the Chavot Yair nor the Chatom Sofer. </ref> | |||

# One can hire a goy to do a job for him and the goy can do it when he wants, it’s permitted even if the goy works on [[Shabbat]]. This only if the job is private work, but if it’s work that the public will see and recognize that a Jew hired him it’s forbidden. Additionally the work must not be done in the Jew’s house. <Ref> S”A 244:1, Mishna Brurah 244:2 explains that since the Jew doesn’t care when the goy does the work, the goy on his own does it on [[Shabbat]] and the wage was fixed it’s permissible. Mishna Brurah 244:3, and Kaf Hachaim 244:4 explain private as something not recognized as being a work paid for by a Jew. S”A 252:2, Mishna Brurah 252:17 say it’s forbidden for the goy to work in the Jew’s house because then it looks like the goy is working as the agent of the Jew. </ref> | # One can hire a goy to do a job for him and the goy can do it when he wants, it’s permitted even if the goy works on [[Shabbat]].
