Praying with a Minyan That Doesn't Follow the Guidelines
Question
Hello Rabbi, is it permitted to pray with a minyan that is a bit lax about the guidelines? (They pray inside the synagogue instead of outside.)
Answer
I don't know how to speak about this in terms of forbidden and permitted. But it is not appropriate, and it would also be advisable to report it to the police.
More power to you; I do indeed make sure to report it to the police… and now with Rabbi Michi's backing..
