# There is a Rabbinic prohibition of Shehiya to leave a pot of uncooked food on a Kirah | # There is a Rabbinic prohibition of Shehiya to leave a pot of uncooked food on a two pot coal-heated stove (Kirah) on Friday afternoon before [[Shabbat]] because one might come to stoke the coals on [[Shabbat]]. <Ref> The Mishna [[Shabbat]] 36b records the prohibition of chazal not to leave uncooked food on the fire before Shabbat. S”A 253:1 codifies this. Rashi explains that the prohibition is based on a concern that one will come to stoke the coals. Rashi also mentions that there is an additional issue of 'Mosif Hevel' (keeping food in a state of raised temperature). Tosfot questions this addition of Rashi because Mosif Hevel is normally associated with the rabbinic prohibition of [[Hatmanah]] and not Shehiyah. </ref> | ||
# A modern stove or gas burner is the equivalent to a Kirah and Shehiya would apply to it.<ref>Rav Ovadia Yosef (Chazon Ovadia Shabbat v. 1 pp. 48-9) writes that seemingly there is not prohibition of Shehiya with a gas stove or burner because it didn't exist in the days of Chazal. Since it didn't exist in the days of chazal and functionally is different than the coal-heated stoves of chazal, perhaps we can't invent a gezerah today to forbid Shehiyah on modern stoves. However, he cites numerous poskim who write that there is a prohibition of Shehiyah with a gas stove. These poskim include: Panim Meirot 1:84, Maharsham 3:165, Maharam Brisk 2:76, and Shoel VeNishal 1:36. [In conclusion, Chazon Ovadia pp.49-50 seems to agree with those who are strict on the matter as he says in order to satisfy the opinion of Maran one should cover the fire. Additionally on p. 44 he writes that nowadays one can be lenient if it is for the day time meal, implying that otherwise not.]</ref> | # A modern stove or gas burner is the equivalent to a Kirah and Shehiya would apply to it.<ref>Rav Ovadia Yosef (Chazon Ovadia Shabbat v. 1 pp. 48-9) writes that seemingly there is not prohibition of Shehiya with a gas stove or burner because it didn't exist in the days of Chazal.
