Question
A Jew asked for hot water to make tea on Shabbat in a permissible way, and another Jew directed him to a hot water device where the Shabbat mode was not functioning. This Jew used the hot water. Did the one who directed him violate a prohibition?
Answer
Shalom! Thank you for your question.
Although a violation did indeed occur in this case, it appears to have been unintentional. Therefore, the person should regret what happened and strive not to repeat such mistakes. It is also necessary to study the laws related to food preparation on Shabbat to prevent such situations in the future.
