# Only someone who is so poor who really has very little (only 2 meals to eat on [[Shabbat]]), and is unable to borrow from others, for him it’s better to have [[Shabbat]] without anything special in order not to rely on others for money. <Ref> S”A 242:1, Mishna Brurah 242:1 explains that it only applies to someone who is so poor that he doesn’t have 2 meals for [[Shabbat]] and Mishna Brurah 242:3 adds that this is only someone who can’t borrow money. </ref> | # Only someone who is so poor who really has very little (only 2 meals to eat on [[Shabbat]]), and is unable to borrow from others, for him it’s better to have [[Shabbat]] without anything special in order not to rely on others for money. <Ref> S”A 242:1, Mishna Brurah 242:1 explains that it only applies to someone who is so poor that he doesn’t have 2 meals for [[Shabbat]] and Mishna Brurah 242:3 adds that this is only someone who can’t borrow money. </ref> | ||
# However, the above is about someone who has enough money that he doesn’t need to take [[Tzedaka]], however, someone who needs to take [[Tzedaka]], he should get the appropriate amount to respect [[Shabbat]] properly. <Ref> Mishna Brurah 242:1, Yalkut Yosef 242:2 </ref> | # However, the above is about someone who has enough money that he doesn’t need to take [[Tzedaka]], however, someone who needs to take [[Tzedaka]], he should get the appropriate amount to respect [[Shabbat]] properly. <Ref> Mishna Brurah 242:1, Yalkut Yosef 242:2 </ref> | ||
# It’s Kavod [[Shabbat]] to do one’s laundry from Thursday prior to [[Shabbat]] so that one’s clothes are clean and fresh for [[Shabbat]]. <Ref> S”A 242:1, Mishna | # It’s Kavod [[Shabbat]] to do one’s laundry from Thursday prior to [[Shabbat]] so that one’s clothes are clean and fresh for [[Shabbat]]. <Ref> S”A 242:1, Mishna Brurah 242:5, Yalkut Yosef 242:8 </ref> Laundry should be done before Friday so that one has time to prepare for [[Shabbat]]. <Ref> S”A 242:1 writes that laundry should be done on Thursday. Shemirat [[Shabbat]] KeHilchata (42 note 13) writes in name of Rav Shlomo Zalman that one may do laundry earlier in the week. Additionally, Mishna Brurah 242:5 explains that it should be done on Friday so that one has time to prepare for [[Shabbat]]. However, Shemirat [[Shabbat]] KeHilchata (42 note 13) suggests that perhaps nowadays that it’s easy and quick to do laundry it’s permitted to do it on Friday. So holds Yalkut Yosef ([[Shabbat]] 242:8, vol 1 pg 13), Chazon Ovadia [[Shabbat]] volume 1 page 24, Rav Yosef Shalom Elyashiv quoted in Avnei Yashfei 1:49, Sh"t Or Litzion 2:16:1, Shevet Hakehati 2:104:4 and Piskei Teshuvot 242:3 writes that such is the Minhag. However, Rav Menashe Klein (author of Mishneh Halachot) in back of Piskei Teshuvot vol 3 writes that nowadays one should still do it on Thursday and not Friday and Chut Hashani 3:1 adds that this is true even if it is done by a non-jew it shouldn't be done on Friday. Ben Ish Chai Parashat Lech Lecha Halacha 8 says if one didn't have a chance for whatever reason to do laundry prior to friday they can certainly be lenient. </ref> | ||
# One should try to have nice clothing and a special tallit out of respect for [[Shabbat]]. This is true even if one is alone or with non-Jews. <ref> Kitzur S"A 72:16 from gemara [[Shabbat]] 113a which explains the verse in Yishaya 58:13 as saying that one should wear nice clothes different from the weekdays clothing.
