Question
Shalom, Rabbi. During the renovation of the house we sealed up a window that was half facing outside and half facing into the house, and next to it we opened a new door. Do we need to be concerned about the testament of Rabbi Yehuda HaChasid regarding leaving an opening in a window that has been sealed? And if so, how should this opening be made in practice?
Answer
Shalom u’vracha
In this matter one should take into account the testament of Rabbi Yehuda HaChasid.
A small hole should be made, even as thin as a needle, in the place where the window was.
