There's a dispute whether women are obligated in Havdalah. | |||
# Nonetheless, according to Sephardim women may make the it for themselves. <ref> Sh"t Yechave Daat 4:27. Rambam (Hilchot [[Shabbat]] 29:1) writes that the Havdalah is a positive command just like [[Kiddish]]. [[Maggid]] Mishna (Hilchot [[Shabbat]] 29:1) implies from the Rambam that women are obligated in Havdalah just like they are obligated in [[Kiddish]]. [[Maggid]] Mishna suggests that even according to those who argue on the Rambam, women can be obligated if the rabbis instituted Havdalah to be just like [[Kiddish]]. Orchot Chaim (Hilchot Havdalah 18; quoted by Bet Yosef 296:8) writes that because there's a dispute whether women are obligated women shouldn't make Havdalah for themselves. Nonetheless, S"A 296:8 rules as Stam (anonymous opinion) that women are obligated in Havdalah. </ref> | |||
# Some Ashkenazim hold that women should not recite [[Havadalah]] for themselves, while many others say that if a woman can not find someone to hear Havdalah from, she should recite Havdalah for herself. <ref> The Rama 296:8 states that women shouldn't recite Havdalah for themselves. The Bach argues that for Ashkenazim there is an additional reason to permit women to make the bracha considering that Ashkenazim allow one to make a bracha even for Mitzvot that one is not obligated in such as [[lulav]]. Magen Avraham 296:11 agrees. Mishna Brurah 296:35 concludes that a woman should not recite Havdalah for herself unless she can't find someone to hear Havdalah from. In 296:36 he writes that certainly a woman should recite it for herself if she can't find someone else to recite for her, or the only person available to say it for her already fulfilled his obligation.

# Before one says Havdalah, one may not doing any Melacha. If one made Havdalah in [[Tefillah]], one may do Melacha. If one needs to do Melacha before saying Havdalah in [[Tefillah]], one should say "HaMavdil Ben Kodesh LeChol" (which is not a bracha) and then do Melacha. <ref>S"A 299:10. Rav Schachter (Eretz HaTzvi p. 57) permits preparing the wine for Havdalah because [[Hachana]] isn’t considered a Melacha and may be done after [[Shabbat]] before Havdalah. </ref>However, one may not eat until one made Havdalah over a cup of wine.<ref>Mishna Brurah 299:1</ref> | # Before one says Havdalah, one may not doing any Melacha.
