[Avodah] Traditions Should not be Altered

[Meir Rabi]

In response to:  Even if there's no chiyuv, what's wrong with taking out a
sefer?  Even on stam a Wednesday, with no mitzvah whatsoever, can't one take
out a sefer torah just to learn chumash from it?

 

R' Moshe Y. Gluck posted:   She'eilas Aharon's Teshuva concludes, "Mikol
Hanal Nireh She'ein Laasos Milsa Chadata Ki Hai L'hotzi Sefer Torah B'shvil
L'hasmia Parashah Zu L'nashim She'karov Lihiyos Bizayon HaTorah." The
She'eilas Aharon is a Rav in Philadelphia, IIRC, his name is R' Felder. (If
you have the She'ilas Aharon, it's Siman 34.)

 

 

Is it reasonable to suggest a Kal VeChomer from the following? Reb Moshe was
asked about a Paroches that opened and closed from and to the centre. The
shoel thought there may have been a problem on Shabbos of Kosev and Mochek
with the writing on the Paroches. Reb Moshe though considered the entire
Paroches to be an unacceptable change from the ancient traditions and
instructed that the Paroches must be altered to the traditional single
curtain.
