Rabbi Baruch Bodenheim: Gemara Shabbos: Muktza Monday night shiur, Elul 5 – Daf 43b Conclusion Sugya: טלטול מן הצד (08/17/26)

Conclusion Sugya: טלטול מן הצד 

How do we conclude lhalacha in regards to moving Muktzah through טלטול מן הצד?

We learned the שו”ע ס’ שי”א סע’ א which rules that טלטול מן הצד  is prohibited

See משנה ברורה ס”ק ו

https://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=60388&st=&pgnum=235

The שו”ע ס’ שי”א סע’ ח makes a distinction between moving for the purpose of the Muktzah item (prohibited) or for the non Muktza item (permitted) – לצורך דבר המותר או לדבר האסור 

https://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=60388&st=&pgnum=234

What is the logic of this distinction; Either indirect movement is considered movement or it is not considered movement, how does the intent of the movement affect the permissibility?

There are two approaches to explain this 

1. Review שו”ע ס’ ש”ט סע’ ד, with the משנה ברורה ס”ק יד and the שער הציון ס’ ש”ט אות יז who gives a reason for the distinction

2. Review חזון איש ס’ מז ס”ק יב-יד who gives a different reason for the distinction and argues on the Shulchan Aruch.

Moving Muktzah with ones body – טלטול בגופו 

The שו”ע ס’ שי”א סע’ ח also permits טלטול בגופו even for the purpose of the Muktzah item.

https://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=60388&st=&pgnum=234

Review the רמ”א ס’ ש”ח סע’ ג permits moving Muktzah by blowing it. 

and משנה ברורה ס’ ש”ח ס”ק יג which permits טלטול בגופו

https://hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=60388&st=&pgnum=215

The Chazon Ish (above) argues on the leniency of moving Muktzah with one’s body for the purpose of the Muktzah item. 

How does the Chazon Ish explain the Mishna which permits moving straw with one’s back?
