Question
I wanted to ask: A. Is it permissible to reuse a disposable aluminum pan with a Badatz certification? B. Is there a difference in the answer if I baked with or without parchment paper? C. I am a widow receiving a monthly allowance into my bank account from a certain organization. Am I required to tithe a tenth of that allowance? D. Additionally, I have a card that is topped up by another organization every month with a certain amount, intended for purchases in a grocery store. Am I required to tithe a tenth of this monthly amount? Thank you very much and may you be strengthened!
Answer
Hello
A. It is not permissible to use a disposable pan twice without immersion in a mikvah.
Usually, the certification means that no forbidden oils were used in the manufacturing process. To be exempt from immersion, it must also state 'exempt from immersion'.
B. There is no difference.
C. If the money is designated for specific uses, it is exempt from tithing. If the amount is intended for general use, tithing is required [-if you yourself are not considered 'poor'].
D. It is permissible. Since it is intended only for food products.
