Question
We are an Ashkenazi family, and in the apartment we purchased, there is a mezuzah with a Sephardic script. Do we need to replace it?
Answer
Shalom and blessings,
According to the instructions of the Gaon, Rabbi Avraham Fried, shlita:
In a purchased apartment, it needs to be replaced.
However, in a rented apartment, one can be lenient.
