The Daily Halacha Moment - Removing Skin On Shabbat 🖐️
״כל השונה הלכות בכל יום - מובטח לו שהוא בן
העולם הבא״ (נידה עג ע״א, מגילה כח:)
“Anyone who studies Halachot every day is guaranteed that he is destined for the world-to-come” (Megilla 28b, Niddah 73a)
Question:
May one remove loose skin on Shabbat?
May one remove the dry skin from one's lips on Shabbat?
Answer:
Cutting warts or loose skin is also prohibited on Shabbat.[1]
Similarly, one may not trim the cuticles that surround the nails where the nails meet the skin and the finger.[2]
One may not bite dry skin from one’s lips on Shabbat.[3]
Furthermore, one may not remove dead skin that is still attached to one’s scalp, but if it is already detached, it may be removed even though it is tangled in one’s hair. [4]
