Question
Hello, if someone is unsure whether they have given tithes, do they need to give due to doubt?
Answer
- Hello,
There is no need to give because in cases of doubt regarding rabbinic decrees, we are lenient. Even if you have acted this way three times, you do not need to give, as you can rely on the declaration you made on the eve of Rosh Hashanah.
