# When the first day of rosh hashana falls out on Shabbat, some poskim say to postpone it, while others say just to say tashlich then. <ref> Ben Ish Chai Parashat Netzavim: 12 says to say it even on shabbat. Kaf Hachayim 583:31 says that is the custom in Yerushalayim. Shvut Yaakov 3:42 quotes the Shnei Luchot Habrit that it should be postponed, but disagrees and says to say it on shabbat, and quotes the Maharil (Teshuva 136) as saying the same. This is also the ruling of the Mateh Ephraim 598:4, Shaare Teshuva 583:6. The Elef Hamagen 598:11 says to postpone it. [http://www.dailyhalacha.com/displayRead.asp?readID=368&txtSearch=tashlich'' Rabbi Eli Mansour] says this is the custom of the Brooklyn Syrian Community based on the psak of Chacham Baruch ben Chaim. See Yabia Omer 4:47 and Yalkut Yosef Moadim page 34 for a summary of the opinions on this matter. </ref>
