2 Questions for the רב רימון

ערבית just ended and I ran to the רב רימון and asked him these 2 Questions:

1] I am a Lefty so do I cover my eyes at שמע ישראל with my left of right hand?
2] how do you call שבת תשובה:
שבת תשובה or שבת שובה

Answers

1] I think you still need to cover your eyes with your right hand but I am not shur, ask me that Question a difrent time because I need to check it out.
2] you could call it both שבת תשובה and שובה.


END

These are such intelligent questions. You are thinking deeply, Shaltiel. When did you think of these ideas?

One of my teachers in High School pointed out that some children are afraid to ask questions. However,he said that it is possible for him to see how smart a kid was by the type of question he asks. In your case, it shows how interested you are in doing the mitzvah perfectly and that you are aware that there might be a different rule when someone is a lefty, which you are.

And in the case of question 2, you again show that you are a perfectionist.

No teacher would want to discourage this quality in a pupil.

Please let us know your Rabbi's answers.

Piles of love,
Grandpa and Grandma
