Question

Shalom Rav. A married man whose wife is in a state of niddah, can he hold a sheet as a game where the husband holds one side, the wife the other, and the children pass underneath? From the perspective of niddah. And if we expand the question, if this is done on Shabbat, is there a prohibition of making a tent?

Answer

Shalom Rav

It is forbidden to hold something together with one's wife during her niddah.

There is no issue of making a tent on Shabbat, as it is held by the person.
