“It’s Freezing. It’s Shabbos can a goy turn on the heat?”
“The light was left on and my child can’t sleep, can I ask my neighbor to turn it off?”
“It’s a shabbos simcha, can I ask a non-jew to push the stroller?”
“What about using a cleaning lady?”
One of the most common unknown areas in halacha is “When can you ask a non-jew to do work for you on Shabbos?” Due to lack of clarity, people can become either unnecessarily stringent or too lax. You may be surprised to find out that what you thought was a problem, is not, and what you thought was not a problem, is not so simple.
