A Woman's Guide to the Laws of Niddah


Book Description

Knowledge of the laws of niddah is absolutely essential for every married woman, and in this new book, Rabbi Forst performs an invaluable service. Unlike his previous works, this book is not geared for someone studying the subject in depth. Instead, it is tailored to the specific needs of women and contains several chapters that are particularly important for kallos. It is complete, yet not too technical, so that one will not be overwhelmed by the material. It is authoritative, but does not claim to replace the competent Rav. It will remove unnecessary doubt and insecurity from countless delicate family situations, and let conscientious people know what to do and when and how to ask.




The Laws of Niddah

Rabbi Forst's previous works have established him as a halachic expositor of the first order. Now he turns to a topic that is at the very basis of the Jewish family and nation. Exhaustive yet clear, detailed yet easy to follow, this book belongs in every Jewish home. In addition to the vital and basic halachos, this volume deals with modern medical procedures and how they affect the halachic status of the patient.
