Question
What is the source of the custom that only married men take the Four Species during Hallel?
Answer
Greetings and blessings
There are a few communities that have the custom that unmarried men do not take the lulav during Hallel and do not circle the bimah during Hoshanot.
As for the reason, some explain it based on Kabbalistic considerations.
However, according to Halacha, there is no source for this at all.
