#This mitzva of arba minim is an obligation on every individual. <ref> Succa 41b. Tosafot there says that since the pasuk says ולקחתם in the plural and not in the singular we know that it is on everyone. </ref> | |||
#Women are exempt from taking the arba minim because it is an aseh shehazman grama. <ref> Mishna Sukkah 28, S"A 640:1. Like the other mitzvot aseh shehazman grama, if she wants to do the mitzva, she is permitted to. Ashkenazim based on Rabbeinu Tam quoted in Kiddushin 31b hold that women are permitted to say the beracha if they do the mitzva. Sephardim however, hold that they cannot say the beracha based on the Rambam in Hilchot Tzitzit 3:10.</ref> | |||
