Slant-roofed sukkah @RaffyVandVaart that's my last resort option, yeah. |

Slant-roofed sukkah @Alex so basically, the poles don't posul the sukkah the way a tree would, but the overall sechach has to be sufficient for a kosher sukkah without including that which is covered by the poles? This is interesting, because I would have assumed that the sukkah under the poles was not valid and thus could not be eaten under or slept under, but it sounds like it's just like "this part of the sukkah isn't covered with sechach - as long as the rest of it is, no problem". Needless to say, I'll bring this to my rabbi, who is more familiar with the S"A HaRav than the S"A and can advise. |

Slant-roofed sukkah My rabbi was my first stop - he told me that he had really never thought about that before and that I should ask around and let him know what I found. Am I reading the S"A right? I read it as "one who builds a sukkah underneath a roof where they have removed the tiles, as long as the framework is thin, it's kosher". |

Why do we bow down in the direction of the ark? Even so, one might ask (and the answer could be very long and thorough, starting from Bereshis bara...) why the Shechina is strongest in the Kodesh HaKodoshim. |

Why do we bow down in the direction of the ark? On your first point, there is also the minhag to bow slightly towards the Torah during hagba. We're certainly not worshipping the scroll - we're showing respect. |

Abbreviations before/after names @msh210 you're very right. There is an enormous difference between a heretic who proclaims themselves Moshiach and a tzadik and godol hador whose followers do so, largely posthumously. I was kidding, but I (would like to think I) was kidding about meshichists and if the Lubavitcher Rebbe ztz'l got hit with collateral damage from that there is no limit to my regret. Thank you for calling me out on it. |

Abbreviations before/after names @msh210 might as well leave it, as I've seen it appellated on the Internet often enough, r"l. In a century or so we can remove it or come up with a bacronym that places it on the other list below. |

Abbreviations before/after names Out of curiosity, is there more than one example (contemporary or not) for whom מה״ם was used? I've never seen it attached to various false messiahs of centuries past, but maybe only because the works of their followers are not extant. |

Shalom Rav / Sim Shalom - by Mincha according to Nusach Ashkenaz @Gershon for N"A davka I believe Shalom gives the correct answer. For N"S and Sefardi the connection is Maariv's nature as a less obligatory prayer and Arizal ruling that it is no different. |

Shalom Rav / Sim Shalom - by Mincha according to Nusach Ashkenaz Many (or at least some) Chasidim say Shalom Rav only at Maariv. |

Is there a list of Mitzvot and their corresponding body parts? @WAF the Chofetz Chaim (or is it Likutey Moharan? getting my daily seder confused) specifically states that there is. |

Why is Tikun Chatzos not widely practiced? In Breslev, we are particular to (try and) say it. I feel like there is another Chasidus that says it but I can't remember which one. |
