Question
I am baking challahs in the amount that requires separating challah, and I have a pregnant neighbor whom I want to give and bless. Should I merit the neighbor who is not accustomed to baking in the amount that requires separating challah, or is it better not to miss the blessing?
Answer
It is not advisable to miss the mitzvah. If you had the opportunity to earn a million dollars, would you also give it to your neighbor?
