Standing with His Wife Under an Umbrella
Question
Last week I was walking with my wife and it started to rain. We only had one umbrella, and I was unsure if it was permissible to be with her under the same umbrella during her niddah days.
Answer
Shalom Rav,
The poskim do not mention a prohibition against being with one's wife who is niddah under the same umbrella. Therefore, if the umbrella is large enough to avoid touching, it is permitted.
