Question
It is known the opinion of the Chazon Ish that one should not move the pins on a Shabbat clock even after the time. My question is: if the clock turns off and on intermittently, is it permissible, when the clock is on and is about to turn off for a period or vice versa, to move the pins in such a way that the turning off and on is canceled and the current state continues?
Answer
Hello
It is permissible to extend the state through a non-Jew.
