Dirshu Mishnah Berurah Moshe Zeidman

We focus on the view of the Rema who allows leniencies in the conditional loan of an animal to a non-Jew over Shabbat. This is qualified by the Mishnah Berurah.

We examine how an animal can be transferred to a non-Jew as a conditional loan or rental such that it may be worked on Shabbat without transgressing the prohibition of working that animal on Shabbat as it "belongs" to the non-Jew.

We explore ways of avoiding the potential prohibition of working an animal on Shabbat when in the possession of a non-Jew either via a rental agreement or being lent to them.

We examine the Halacha that animals must also have rest from work on Shabbat.

There is a prohibition of not working animals on Shabbat. Whether this extends to one's utensils is subject to a disagreement amongst the Rishonim. We explore the Halacha in this situation.

The Halacha is clear in the way a partnership between a Jew and Non-Jew should be established in order for a business to keep running on Shabbat. We explore ways of fixing the partnership where this was not put in place from the outset.
