the counterintuitive (in my intuition's opinion) result that if you take<br>
your tallis off on purpose to put on later, you don't need a berakhah; but<br>
if it slips altogether off unintentionally, you do need one when you put<br>
it back on.>><br><br><br>there was some confusion about the halacha so a quick summary:<br>Tur - If one purposely takes off one tallit with the intention of putting it<br>back on shortly - he has a safek whether one should say a second bracha<br>
He prefers the opinion not to say a second bracha<br><br>Bet Yosef - Tallit is like tefillin and so one does say a second bracha<br><br>Agur - not to say a second bracha if one is wearing a tallit katan<br><br>SA - like Bet Yosef (no surprise)<br>
Rama - like the Tur no bracha if he intended to rewear the tallit<br>second opinion - like the Agur which is the minhag<br><br>MB - like the Tur not to say the bracha if he intended to return the tallit<br>but if he had no intention then he paskens like the Agur<br>
<br>ROY - not to say a new bracha (against SA!) because of safek brachot lehakel<br><br>If the tallit fell off SA (and MB) pasken that if a little is still on then not to<br>make a new bracha but if it all falls off then to make a new bracha<br>
ROY - again no bracha because of safek brachot lehakel<br>RSZA paskens that in modern days if the tallit falls off unintentionally that<br>
one does not make a bracha. His reasoning is that since we wear a tallit gadol<br>
for tefilla it is an automatic intention that it stay on and so there is no hesech<br>
hadat if it falls off <br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Eli Turkel<br>
