Greetings From the Chatzos Kollel Bais Hora’ah

Questions overheard on the Bais Hora’ah’s Halacha Hotline during the midnight hours:

A Yid called, relating that he just awoke from a terrible nightmare and undertook a taanis chalom for the following day. He wanted to know whether he was permitted to eat until alos or had his fast already begun.

A Yid called immediately after alos, saying that he just realized he forgot to daven Maariv; can he still daven?

A Yid was on the road and had to eat something urgently. His only utensil was not yet toiveled. He called to ask whether he may use it anyway.

Motzei Purim, 2 o’clock at night, a Yid called, saying that he was still drunk, but wanted to know if he was allowed to daven Maariv in his shikur state.

A Yid called late at night. His wife had just given birth, and he wanted to know whether he should make a bracha of HaTov v’Hameitiv.

The previous Tisha b’Av night, a Yid called in middle of the night, asking whether he could take Tylenol to relieve an excruciating headache.
