Question
Is there an issue of building on Shabbat when placing a magnet on a refrigerator, where the magnet is intended to remain for more than a month, as it is considered building on the ground?
Answer
Shalom Rav
Attaching a magnet is not considered building, and therefore there is no prohibition of building, even when it is intended to remain for a long time.
