[Avodah] Kiddush hashem via issur

[Micha Berger via Avodah]

Two more examples of qiddush hasheim being about behavior in front of
anyone.

1- Geneivas aku"m through circumvention is a lack of qiddush hasheim (R'
Aqiva, BQ 113a)

2- Orechos Tzadiqim, sha'ar haEmes, calls getting the nations to say
"Berikh E-lohehon diYhuda'i!" to be a qidush hasheim. The example is
from Shimon ben Shetach requiring his talmidim to return a gem to a
Yishmaeli when it was lifnim mishuras hadin. (TY BM 2:5, vilna 8a)

(Recall this is pre-Islam, the Yishmaeli was aku"m.)

Tir'u baTov!
