Letter with Halachic Response Regarding Moroccan Customs by Rabbi Shalom Mashash, Rabbi of Jerusalem
Letter of approbation for book, with lengthy Halachic response, in handwriting and signature of the Ga’on Rabbi Shalom Mashash. Jerusalem, (1995).
In the response, the author presents various Halachic rulings and mentions Moroccan customs. (For example: in laws prohibiting haircuts before Tisha B’Av he states that majority of scholars of Morocco were stringent not to get haircuts from 17th of Tamuz, and I follow their opinion, however also simple people were meticulous not to get haircuts from month of Av, as with eating meat. And on Rosh Chodesh we would eat meat in the meal before sunset).
