Rabbi Yosef
Karo
(author
of
שולחן ערוך):
"Who is he whose heart
conspires to approach forcing congregations who practice
according to the RaMBáM of blessed memory, to go by any
one of the early or latter-day Torah authorities?! ...
Is it not a case of a
fortiori, that regarding the School of Shammai—that the
halakháh does not go according to them—they [the Talmudic
Sages] said ‘if [one practices] like the School of Shammai
[he may do so, but] according to their leniencies and
their stringencies’:
The RaMBáM, is the
greatest of all the Toráh authorities,
and all the communities of the Land of Israel and the
Arab-controlled lands and the West [North Africa] practice
according to his word, and accepted him upon themselves as
their Chief Rabbi.
Whoever practices
according to him [the RaMbáM] with his leniencies and his
stringencies, why coerce them to budge from him?
And all the more so if also their fathers and forefathers
practiced accordingly: for their children are not to turn
right or left from the RaMBaM of blessed memory.
And even if communities
that practice according to the Rosh or other authorities
like him became the majority, they cannot coerce the
minority of congregations practicing according to the
RaMBaM of blessed memory, to practice like they do.
And there is no issue here concerning the prohibition
against having two courts in the same city [‘lo
tithgodedu’], since every congregation should practice
according to its original custom…”
(Abqáth Rokhél, simán
32. Translation: r. M.S. Bar Ron)
