Tefillin in the Heat
Question
Hello Rabbi,
How soon do tefillin need to be checked
if they were left inside a closed car in the heat today?
Thanks in advance.
Answer
In principle, tefillin do not need to be checked. If some concern arose, then of course they should be checked immediately. This does not depend on halakhic rules, but on the actual circumstances.
