# A number of Acharonim, including the Maharikash, R' Shmuel Abuhab, and even Rav Chaim Vital claim or heard that Shulchan Aruch was written at the end of Rav Yosef Karo's life, which accounts for contradictions and inaccuracies that crept in. They claim either he wrote it himself and was weak and old, or students wrote it for him or on their own. The printing dates suffice to trounce this claim. The Maharitatz writes that the Shulchan Aruch was written for laymen and Amei HaAretz, which caused the Yad Malachi to call attention to the introduction to Shulchan Aruch where Maran writes exactly not so and to the testimonies of the Ginat Veradim and Kenesset HaGedolah to the grand acceptance of Shulchan Aruch. Some argue the proof from the Hakdama is invalid, as it could be referring to one who uses both Shulchan Aruch and Beit Yosef. The Maamar Mordechai 38:4 defends the Maharitatz as being taken out of context.<ref>Yad Malachi (Klalei Shulchan Aruch 2), Matnat Yado ad loc</ref> | # A number of Acharonim, including the Maharikash, R' Shmuel Abuhab, and even Rav Chaim Vital claim or heard that Shulchan Aruch was written at the end of Rav Yosef Karo's life, which accounts for contradictions and inaccuracies that crept in.

# Maran wrote responsa on all areas of Shulchan Aruch (see "Works No Longer Extant"). We have Avkat Rochel, which is a compilation of responsa to his contemporaries, such as the Alishich, Ramak, Mabit, and Radbaz.<ref>Shem HaGedolim (Sefarim, Aleph 13)</ref> and Shu"t Beit Yosef on Even HaEzer. | |||
