Question

I try to welcome Shabbat twenty minutes before sunset. Fifteen minutes before sunset, I discovered a stain on my clothing that can be removed with water. What is preferable: welcoming Shabbat early or having clean clothing?

Answer

Shalom and blessings,

Do not delay the time you are accustomed to welcoming Shabbat. Even if you happen to find something urgent.

In this way, the time will be postponed and postponed.
