Question
Should we be cautious of exposed water during Tekufah in our times?
Answer
The Rema wrote that there is a simple custom to be cautious about this, as the ancients wrote, and it should not be changed. However, some have written that there is no need to be concerned about this, and if iron is placed in the water, it is permissible to drink it even according to the stringent opinions. Also, if it was closed in a vessel or boiled, some have written that there is no need to be concerned.
According to Halacha, there is no need to be concerned about this in our times.
