KOL HASHONEH HALACHOT BECHOL YOM MUVTACH LO SHEH'HOO BEN HA'OLAM HABA

L’yilui Nishamt Avraham ben Ester ZT’L.
From Yalkut Yosef:

1. Batei Knessiyot (Shuls) and Batei Midrashot are called “Mikdash Me’at” which means a small Temple. Kedusha (purity) rests in Batei Knessiyot and Midrashot.  Therefore, one should be very cautious in the respect of these holy sites, and to keep them clean. One should sit there with fear of Heaven and to light a candle inside them for respect.

2. In Batei Knessiyot and Batei Midrashot there is no room for silly behavior and light playful taunting. From a Pasuk in Tanach we learn Hashem does not want people who jest and joke in these places. It is also prohibited to speak aimless chatter, which has become ‘allowed’ for many people and these people should be rebuked to keep the Shechina (divine presence) from leaving. The Zohar says the punishment of one who speaks in Shul is so severe that this person does not have a Helech Lelokei Yisrael (a part of the G-d of Israel).

SHAVUA TOV!
