Question
Hello, for which vows is the annulment of vows and declaration on the eve of Rosh Hashanah beneficial?
Answer
Hello and blessings,
- For customs that have been practiced three times.
- For vows that one does not remember. As for vows that are remembered, they require a separate annulment.
- When one thought to give charity and changed their mind and does not want to give. Similarly, for all other commandments that are not obligatory and one thought to perform them and changed their mind, they are not obligated to perform them as a vow.
