פסיעה לבר ארוכה - חשש קו"ף
נראה לי שהה"א נהפכה לצורת קו"ף מחמת אריכות הפסיעה לבר כלפי מטה, והיא נעשית כעין [ושיעור] ירך של קו"ף, והרי זו שינוי בעצם צורתה, והיא פסולה

ReplyDeleteThere are many reasons why I would not invalidate these KAFS.
ReplyDelete1. They retain there appearance, and cannot be confused with a NUN, especially since this is a Ketav Arizal where the Rosh of a NUN is written like a ZAYIN.
2. Although, the base of the letters appear narrow, the RASHIM have more than the SHIUR of a KOLMOS as can be seen when you compare to the ROSH of the NUN's in the same Ketav. As such, the width of the head, even in a Ketav Sepharadi, where one makes the head of a NUN like a VAV, when in a SAFEK one would make a She'elat TINOK.
3. Likewise, although the MOSHAV is a bit narrow. However, it is not that narrow as to appear like a RESH.
Therefore, I say that this KAF retains it's shape. However, if one is in doubt, they should not jump to invalidate it. Rather, the letter must be shown to a TINOK.

ReplyDeleteI think it's ok but definitely should be fixed.
DeleteI agree with Alberto only with the chaf of anochi , however lachem IMHO is a nun.
ReplyDeletethe lamed is kosher, sice most poskim disagree with the chidush of m"b. the Baruch Sheamar calls it a zanav
