Rabbi Avraham Kahan, Av Beis Din of Vaad Hadin v’Horaah and Rov in New City, NY, a young and respected Dayan who is also known for his tireless work on behalf of Agunos, recently delivered an in-depth Shiur on one paragraph in the Alter Rebbe Shulchan Aruch Hilchos Ribbis.
The Dayan, who is a descendant of the Alter Rebbe, opened his Shiur by summarizing the Gemara dealing with the foundation of the prohibition of Ribbis, and then launched into an explanation of the Alter Rebbe’s Chidush in Shulchan Aruch, based on the Meforshim, and based on the Rebbe’s Reshimos and Sichos.
The topic was whether a borrower who already paid Ribbis, is allowed to forgive the lender and allow the lender to keep the prohibited Ribbis, and whether the lender has an obligation to return it nevertheless.
The shiur was delivered to the Yungeleit of the Kolel L’horaah Ma’asis of Crown Heights, headed by Rosh Kolel Rabbi Sholom Shuchat, Sgan Rosh Kolel Rabbi Shraga Homnick and Menahel Rabbi Yosef Shloimy Greenwald.
