==Asking forgiveness=== | |||
# Yom Kippur doesn't grant one forgiveness for one's sins between a man and his fellow until one appeases and receives forgiveness from one's friend. Therefore, it's esspecially important to appease one's friend on Erev Yom Kippur. <ref>S"A 606:1 writes that Yom kippur doesn't atone for sins between man and his fellow until one appeases his friend. Mishna Brurah 606:1 explains that during the entire year if one offended one's friend one must appease him, however, if one was unable to do so then one may wait until tomorrow, however, the day before Yom Kippur one must fix everything in order to be cleansed of all one's sins. </ref> | |||
# If one has money which is disputed and can be claimed by someone else even if that other claimant doesn't know one should tell them and then settle the dispute with the local Rabbi. In monetary matters one must not rely on one's own judgement because the Yetzer Hara (evil inclination) fabricates many justifications. <Ref>Mishna Brurah 606:1, Yalkut Yosef (Moadim pg 78), Chazon Ovadyah (pg 240) </ref> | |||
# Children have a holy obligation to ask forgiveness from their parents because of Kibbud Av VeEm (respecting one's parents). Similarly, spouses should forgive one another. A student should ask forgiveness from his Rebbe if he lives in the city. <ref>Yalkut Yosef (Kitzur S"A 606:11) </ref> | |||
# It's forbidden to be cruel and not forgive but rather in one's heart one should completely forgive him for the offense. Even if it pained it intently one should not take revenge or harbor a grudge. <ref>Rama 606:1, Yalkut Yosef (Moadim pg 80), Chazon Ovadyah (pg 243) </ref> If one forgiving Hashem will forgive his sins, however, if a man is stubborn and doesn't forgive Hashem will act accordingly (Chas VeShalom). <ref>Mishna Brurah 606:8 quoting the gemara Rosh Hashana 17a </ref> | |||
# If a person who offended his fellow and asks forgiveness the friend shouldn't reject the appeasement unless it is intended for the benefit of the one who did the offense so that he is humbled and doesn't continue by doing that offense. <ref>Rama 606:1 </ref>Nonetheless, if one is not granted forgiveness for the benefit of the offender one must be sure to remove any hate of the offender from one's heart. <ref>Mishna Brurah 606:9 </ref> | |||
# If a person spread a bad name about someone else it is permitted not to forgive that person, however, it's preferable to be humble and forgive even in such a case <ref> Rama 606:1, Mishna Brurah 606:11 </ref> except for a Talmid Chacham who should not forgive easily (in such a case) especially when it's done for the benefit of the the offender to change from his ways. <ref>Chazon Ovadyah (pg 243) </ref> | |||
# If a person said Lashon Hara (evil speech) about his fellow and his fellow doens't know about it some say that one should just ask forgiveness from his fellow in a general way and not spell out that he said Lashon Hara against him, however, others say that one specify that one did speak Lashon Hara about him. <ref> Shalmei Moad (pg 56) quotes Rav Yisrael Slanater who says that if one spoke Lashon Hara baout one's fellow and he doens't know about it that one should just ask forgiveness in a general way, while the Chafetz Chaim 4:12 argues that one must specify that one spoke Lashon Hara. Yalkut Yosef 606:16 rules like Rav Yisrael Slanater </ref> | |||
==Tevilah== | |||
# Some have the practice to dip (Tovel) in the mikvah on Erev Yom Kippur and it's preferable to do so before Mincha but some have the practice to do it after Seuda Mafseket as long as one does it before nighttime. <ref>S"A 606:4, Mishna Brurhah 606:17-8 </ref> Some say that one should does it after 5 halachic hours into the day but if one is unable one may do it after Olot HaShachar (dawn). <ref>Yalkut Yosef 606:4(1) </ref> | |||
# Some say that submerging oneself in the mikvah once is sufficient and some say three times. <ref>Mishna Brurah 606:21 </ref> | |||
# No bracha is made for this tevilah. <ref>S"A 606:4 </ref> | |||
# If it's painful for one to dip in the mikvah or one is unable to because of a weakness one may pour 9 Kav of water on one's head. <ref>Rama 606:4, Mishna Brurah 606:22</ref> Taking a shower for the length of time it takes for 9 Kav to come out is sufficient. <ref>Yalkut Yosef 606:4(2) </ref> | |||
