<BLOCKQUOTE

style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" face=Tahoma color=#000000 size=2>but I
have question for Avodah: Is there any point at all in her going to
mikveh? Is there an issur of niddah in such a
case?<BR></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV>In addition to the already mentioned sources that hold that there
is Issur Niddus on B'ilas Akum, (Maharsha, Pnei Yehoshua, Ohr Godol) I also
found the Tzitz Eliezer Vol. 10 # 43 who brings from the Minchas Chinuch in his
Kometz HaMincha on Mitzvah 35 who says so Mfurosh.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>On the other hand I found an opinion who disagrees and brings proof to his
opinion that there is no Issur, the Sefer is called Dvar Yeshuoh on the Megila.
(if there will be any interest in it I will send pdf file, as there are many
interesting points with regard to the discussion about Esther.) </DIV>
