Aliyah of a Minor for Maftir on Shabbat Shuva
Question
The Mishnah Berurah writes that it is customary for a boy not to read the Haftarah of Shuva Yisrael. Does this mean he should also not be called up for Maftir on this Shabbat, or can he be called up (on the Shabbat before his Bar Mitzvah) and an adult will read the Haftarah?
Answer
Shalom and blessings
The issue arises even when the minor makes the blessing and another reads.
