Using Someone Else's Tallit

p. 38 Chapter Fourteen Laws of Zizit Manufactured by Non-Jews or by Women , and of a Borrowed Tallit

3. One may take someone else's tallit and say the blessing over it as long as one folds it up again if one found it folded. (Sh.Ar. ibid.) This ruling applies also to tefillin (phylacteries); however one may not learn from someone else's books without his knowledge. (Rema, ibid.)

Note from us: Please consult your own rabbi to find out what to do - these are for learning purposes only.
As quoted from:
Shulchan HaMelech, a Kitzur Shulchan Aruch in 3 volumes as compiled by Maharan HaRav Shmuel Laniado z'al, 1923 with the supplement "Al HaShulchan" containing various opinions compiled by Ezra Basri, Chief Justice of the District Court, Jerusalem in 1992.

We would like to dedicate this learning for the speedy and complete recovery of several people, including Gittel bas Yehudis, Mendel ben Florence, our friends' 5-year-old son, Joseph Benjamin, son of Ireneusz Khrystof, diagnosed in April with ALL leukemia, and a longtime friend of the family, Franco, son of Joseph, who is B"H recovering from thyroid surgery. Please have them in mind when studying. If you would like updates on their progress, please let me know so I can tell you when I find out from either or both.

 B"H we did our last Happiness Conference Call Thursday night on skype, reading the Rabbi Pliskin Happiness book as a merit for these and other cholim - we thank those who participated and hope you will all join us for the next installment Tuesday night at 9pm (contact me to find out how to join - aimee.cohen@gmail.com)
