Years ago, we were 10 for mincha when the 10th (with beard and peyot) stood up to say that there was no minyan as he was not Jewish. (FYI, he eventually did complete his conversion). | |

| Aug 1, 2019 at 16:37 | comment | added | Yaacov Deane | This answer is based upon a false premise. The Rema which you quote is discussing if you see "a Jew" on the street wearing kilayim. That is because both Jews have the same obligation. But in the context of including a non-Jew as part of the essential 10 for a minyan, they are not the same type. The best course of action, if you didn't want to embarrass Reuven or Berel, is to leave the group and pray alone. You are not leaving a minyan and you don't betray your promise to Reuven either. If asked why you are leaving, you could say you don't feel well. | |

That way, he'll be even minimizing those berachos. However that would be for a weekday, in the example cited (Shabbos) - what about taking out a Sefer Torah and leining - that was a takanas Ezra - it would be hard to imagine a Mincha on Shabbos where you found a minyan and a sefer Torah, unless you quickly go to shul! | |
