# It is forbidden to prepare for the seder on Shabbat because on Shabbat one may not prepare for after Shabbat ([[hachana]]). Therefore, one should not take food for the seder out of the freezer until after Shabbat. If one absolutely must defrost food for the seder, such as soft matzah, and it won't be ready in time to eat it, such as for old people who are going to have an early and short seder, can defrost it on Shabbat itself. To avoid muktzeh one could take the matzah with the maror on top of the matzah.<ref>[https://www.torahanytime.com/#/lectures?v=145037 Rav Yitzchak Yosef (Motzei Shabbat Vayikra 5781)]</ref> | # It is forbidden to prepare for the seder on Shabbat because on Shabbat one may not prepare for after Shabbat ([[hachana]]).

In terms of the hachana he is lenient based on the Maharshag since it is impossible to arrange to do it after Shabbat, so it isn't hachana to do it on Shabbat. In terms of muktzeh he is lenient based on Rabbi Akiva Eiger that muktzeh machmat chisaron kis is permitted with a permitted item on top of it unlike the Taz.</ref> | ||

It is preferable not to say that one is going to sleep in order to stay up for the seder.<ref>[https://www.torahanytime.com/#/lectures?v=145037 Rav Yitzchak Yosef (Motzei Shabbat 5781, min 21)] said that technically if it is necessary, such as if one's child doesn't understand why they need to take a nap, it is permitted to say it since it is for a mitzvah.</ref> | #It is permitted to sleep on Shabbat in order to be well rested for the seder.
