Each week, Rabbi Braun addresses real halachic questions submitted by listeners, providing clear and insightful guidance on a wide range of practical issues. This week’s topics include:

• Bris and baby naming: When a bris is performed by a frum mohel surgeon in a hospital, should the baby be named immediately with only the parents present, or later at home with a minyan and a cup of wine? How closely must the bracha of “asher kideish yedid” follow the bris itself?

• Brachos for parents after birth: Guidelines for the brachos made by parents and the proper minhag among Chassidim.

• Shehecheyanu on new fruits: Which bracha comes first—Shehecheyanu or ha’eitz—according to Chabad minhag, and does the Rebbe provide guidance to reverse the order?

• Women and Birkat Hagomel: Should a woman recite hagomel after childbirth?

• Answering devarim shebikdusha during Pesukei D’zimra: Which responses and instances of amein during Kaddish are included in the halachic allowance.

• Shoveling snow on Shabbos: What may be done in enclosed areas, on slippery surfaces, and in spaces where carrying is restricted?

• Adding a name for a choleh: Conditions for adding a name to a dangerously ill person and its halachic implications.

• Bracha of al mitzvas tzitzis on a tallis gadol: When a bracha is recited in error, is it valid b’dieved, and what changes to the nusach require repeating it?

• Switching rooms while eating cake and coffee: How leaving and returning affects the obligations of al hamichya and the preceding brachos.
