Sacred! Innovations on Masechet Psachim Large Sheet Handwritten by the Chasam Sofer of Pressburg
His sacred manuscript! מה שחנני הש"י בסוגיא דפסחים ! Large sheet handwritten by Maran the Chasam Sofer of Pressburg. Printed in his sacred book on Masechet Psachim, with some lingual variations.
Innovations on Masechet Psachim handwritten by Rabbi Moshe Sofer of Pressburg. On each page, a gloss handwritten by him.
The innovations were printed in his book on Masechet Psachim and were re-edited based on this manuscript in the revised edition.
The virtue of manuscripts by him:
Due to the sanctity of the Chasam Sofer's Torah innovations, leading rabbis believed that the manuscript itself was a Segulah for Yiras Shamayim and salvation. Tzaddikim also saw his manuscripts as a Segulah to be rescued from fire.
His son the holy Gaon Rabbi Shimon Sofer, before he went to stand beside his brother in the Parliament, used to look at his father's script ומשפיע רחמים וחסדים.
The Mahari Tov of Satmar and before him, the Maharam Benet, said that seeing the Chasam Sofer's script is a Segulah for Yiras Shamayim.
The holy Gaon Av Beis Din of Shamloy said that everything that he says is pure and sacred and therefore, his script is Segulah for protection.
The Da'as Sofer of Pressburg - his great-grandson and successor - used to put a sacred manuscript inside a case and place it at the head of the sick in need for salvation and they were healed by the Segulah of the manuscript.
Shut Sheves Halevi, discussing these Divrei Segulah, mentions the Segulah of manuscripts by the Chasam Sofer for good health and especially difficult deliveries.
[1] leaf written on bith sides. A total of [2] written pages. With lengthy glosses, also handwritten by Maran the Chasam Sofer. Slight professional restoration to the edges, not affecting the text.
