Rabbi Baruch Bodenheim: Gemara Shabbos: Perek Kirah: Muktza יום רביעי Tamuz 2, דף מד עמ’ ב (06/17/26)

The Magen Avraham quotes the Rambam who states in the case money was left on the wheel of a wagon and the wheel is permanently affixed to the wagon although the wagon does not become a Bosis to the money one must shake off the money if it’s possible before moving the wagon.

Question on Rebbe Akiva Eiger:

Why is this different than any case of one who forgot Muktza on top of an item although the item does not become a Bosis if possible one must shake off the Muktza before the item as stated in the משנה דף קמב עמ’ ב?

Bottom Line Halacha:

Questions:

  • Does one need to shake out the money from the pants pocket before moving it?
  • Does it matter if the money was left inside by accident or intentionally?
  • The Magen Avraham differentiates between different types of pockets. What is the difference?
  • May one move a desk in which the drawer contains Muktzah?
