Question
Does the prohibition against shatnez include only single garments containing wool and linen? Or does it apply to wool and linen worn in separate garments simultaneously? For example, what are the laws pertaining to wearing a linen shirt with wool pants, or a linen hat and woolen socks?

Question
Today my wife mounted a green wreath on our front door. It looks like the attractive wreaths hanging on many front doors in our neighborhood. Fortunately, it does not feature holly berries. I question whether this wreath is permitted. I feel that it is reminiscent of pagan practices. I know we are not supposed to follow the practices of the nations, and I can't help feeling that this wreath has a pagan symbolism that I don't know. I would appreciate learning whether this wreath is permitted, and if not, what the relevant halakhah is. Thank you very much.

Question
Hi there! I have a question today about a "Neder" that I may have taken. A couple of years ago I said "From now on, I am not allowed to derive any benefit from sins!". This Shevuah now is having alot of negative effects and I want to see if there is a way for me to get it removed. When I made this Shevuah, I thought that it was a vow. Obviously, this is not true, but even if I would known that it was a Shevuah, I would have taken the Neder anyway. Nevertheless, the Shevuah may have had a false premise. According to the Rambam (Nedarim 2:2), a person who took a vow and then realied that it was an oath, is not bound. However, I found this website that claims that today, the Poskim and HaRav Ovadia Yosef say that since today's language is often mixed up, any statement like "I promise I will do this" is binding even if he made a vow (https://halachayomit.co.il/en/default.aspx?HalachaID=2686). On the flip side, though, another source says that I do not need to keep this (https://www.mishnahyomit.com/articles/Shevuot/A%20Shevuah%20and%20A%20Neder) My question is, which one is correct? Are there Poskim that would allow me to break my "Neder". Thank You!

Question
Would it be permitted to take my adult grandson on a camping trip? When my husband was alive, we went camping together often. It was one of our favorite things to do since we were young and we had lots of good times together that are still in my memories. Since his death, it is something I really miss. I still want to go camping. The only relative of mine who shares my passion is my 24-year-old grandson, and I am very close to him. We want to go on a trip around the country together in my camping trailer, but I am concerned about tzniut issues because the trailer I have lacks a private place for either of us to change our clothes. It has a (kosher) kitchen, a dining area, a very small bathroom with a shower, a bed, and a sofa that can turn into another bed. I feel comfortable going with my grandson more than anyone else because he is young and can keep me safe and do a lot of the driving. I am 71, and even if my husband were alive now, I’m not even sure if I would have been traveling with him much longer.

Question
I lived in NYC in 2020 when the BLM riots took place. Cars were surrounded by mobs and the drivers were pulled out and severely beaten. I suspect we may see this again. I am 70 years old. If my car is surrounded by a mob, and they haven't done anything to me yet, am I allowed to floor the gas pedal and run over whoever is in front of my car?

Question
Are Noahides permitted to wear kippot? Would it be disrespectful to Jews for Noahides to do so? From my understanding, kippot aren't holy objects, so there is no mitzvah against a Gentile using them. And I know that the Torah does not even mention kippot. But I've also seen others saying that anything that might make Gentiles be mistaken for Jews is not permitted. So I'm not sure.

Question
Rabbi, I work in healthcare and I wear tzittzit faithfully. When I come home I typically change out of the set I wore while working so that I am not spreading germs at home. Do I need to say a bracha over the new set if I said one in the morning? I appreciate your willingness to answer questions! G-d bless you!
