On the Sabbath, is it permitted to stick up a notice with adhesive?
Question
A notice from the synagogue wardens about prayer times and the like—may it be posted using adhesive that was cut before the Sabbath? After all, it lasts at most 24–5 hours and no more; either it falls off by itself or people remove it.
Answer
Temporary sticking, especially if it is easy to remove, involves no prohibition.
