5 SHIUR OF RABBI PINTO SHLITA
Question 5
Date: 03.24.2020
Topic: Pandemic
Question:
Dear Rabbi,
Torah leaders around the world have declared a day of fasting and prayer to unveil Hashem's mercy in this pandemic. Is it recommended to fast during a pandemic?
Answer 5:
The rabbis and Torah leaders who have implored the public to fast and repent have valid sources to their words. These Rabbis are all great men and scholars and their word is to be respected by all members of their communities. "Make for yourself a teacher (Ethics of Our Fathers 1:6):" Every person must adhere to the advice of their Rabbi.
In the Shuva Israel community too, members must listen to the words of their Rabbi. We've already communicated our thoughts on the matter to our students and followers.

[This is a repost, more than one year ago the mekubal, Rabbi Pinto answered several general questions including the current situation in the world, and I felt that I should post his shiurim again, this is urgent and important to us as we will need to fortify our emunah and bitachon in HaShem and through Tzaddik, to get knowledge to achieve greater wisdom and good decisions, and to do better and better what needs to be done by ourselves and our love ones. – editor of Journal Mitzvah]

the more Kedushah enters this world from below, for the good of all!) Thanks,
