#5941 – Boon the Moon?
Q. Kvod Horav, this last Motzei Shabbat was the last day to be able to recite Kiddush Levana (Boon on the Moon). I was with the Rov outside our shul and I saw that the Rov went all the way to Bathurst St. to recite it. While some did it just outside and since the moon was low, although it could be seen clearly, at that point some branches of the nearby trees were covering it partially. Did they comply wit the Kiddush Levana?

A. I consulted with Horav Shlomo Miller Shlit’a and his opinion is that if one is able to see clearly some of the light of the moon even through some trees, one may recite Kiddush Levana.

Rabbi A. Bartfeld as revised by Horav Y. Hirshman, Horav Dovid Pam, Horav Aharon Miller, Horav Chanoch Ehrentreu, Horav Kalman Ochs, and Horav Dovid Bartfeld consulting in need Horav Hagaon Rav Yitzchak Berkowitz Shlit’a
