Question
What is the law regarding a mezuzah that fell on Shabbat?
Answer
A mezuzah that fell from its place on Shabbat should not be returned to its place due to the prohibition of building. It is also considered muktzeh, like anything attached to the ground that has become detached, and is considered muktzeh, and it is forbidden to move it. Therefore, if possible, lift it with your elbow or body. If you can only lift it with your hand, leave it on the ground until after Shabbat.
