Question
I have a sukkah with three walls, but it wasn't combined. To solve the problem, I placed a small wall between the two walls, resulting in a wall of 7 tefachim, part of which—about 4 tefachim—requires gud asik and a bent wall, which, as is known, is not valid according to all opinions. In the other part of the wall, there is only a bent wall without gud asik. I would like to know if this is kosher? And if it is not kosher, will it be kosher if I extend the wall with another wide and high board, meaning there will be a wall of about 12 tefachim, consisting of 4 tefachim in the combination, but the wall there is low, meaning 10 tefachim high, and in the remaining 8 tefachim of the wall, only a bent wall is needed. In other words, in the section creating the combination, must there be neither gud asik nor a bent wall, or is it sufficient that in the rest of the wall (not in the combination section) there is only a bent wall. Apologies in advance if I was not clear...
Answer
Hello,
According to the instructions of the Gaon, Rabbi Ovadia Fried, shlita, this is not ideal, but post facto it is kosher.
