#5773 - A Storm of a Shailah?
Question
Dear Rov. I truly wonder if one is allowed to make people come to shul to fulfill the ten needed for a minyan, when there is a powerful snow storm and it may put some people in danger. Is that correct?
Answer
There are many variables and different conditions that may give contrary answers to that question.
However, one item is clear. If there is any way or condition that can place a person in any danger, be it his age or status of the road and sidewalk etc. one should remain safe at home.
