Your direct line to the world's greatest Poskim Halacha-net Is not just a name of another Internet site. It is an opportunity to solve your Halacha queries through World Wide Halacha Center. We are recognized as "Halachanet" when we are located at "www.halacha.net" and "www.halacha.com" Staff of Experts Every observant Jew desires to have his own Rabbi - an authority on Halacha, who is available, respects his privacy, and above all, is an expert in his field. It is difficult to find a Rav, and doubly difficult to find one who is able to deal with questions in all areas of life. Halachanet has achieved this difficult task. Halachanet has gathered together a staff of talented Rabbis who are open to discussion of any topic and also have the capabilities to deal with it. The staff also is prepared to consult experts in specific areas of Halacha on more complex questions. Many questions have been brought to the attention of the greatest Poskim of our generation. Total Availability The staff receives questions from anyone and everyone, by e-mail or fax. There is no need to connect to the Internet to take advantage of our services. Balanced Staff Halachanet directs questions to Rabbis from all parts of the Orthodox spectrum, from anywhere in the world, as long as they are not controversial or political in nature. Modern Issues Aside from traditional Halachic questions, Halachanet confronts problems that did not exist in the past. Can one participate in a course in self-defense that requires a ceremonial bowing? Is roasting liver in a microwave oven sufficient to kasher it? Can a video camera be used to insure the Kashrut of milk? To solve specific problems we have often consulted engineers, chemists and other scientists. Over time, Halachanet has gained the trust of many Jews, and even highly competent Rabbis serving congregations throughout the world repeatedly send questions to Halachanet. Personal Attention Each question is examined seriously with concern for the personal needs and privacy of the person asking it. Many times Halachanet staff have called to ascertain additional details. In complex questions, no limit is put on the research done to clarify the case. Bibliographic Service Many people, in particular students, have the need to do research in Halachic topics. For this purpose, they need bibliographic assistance. In order to help them, we have hired a professional librarian with a library of over 50,000 books as well as access to all the digital Halachic databases.
The Future Often, millionaires turn to us with their personal Halachic questions, and as with all of our questioners, our services are delivered gratis. Our services are delivered free of charge despite the many hours invested by our staff. Halachanet wants to serve the Jewish People without charging, just as Rabbis did throughout the generations. On the other hand we turn to all Jews who wish to take part in supporting this worthy project for the benefit of all Jews everywhere. Multilingual Halachanet accepts questions from any country, but our main source of questions is the United States. The reason for this is that at this point, Halachanet deals only with questions in English or Russian. The addition of staff who can write in Spanish or French would be very valuable to Jews in more countries to take advantage of our services. This obviously would require an additional investment. Advertisement Despite the fact that many thousands of Jews know about Halachanet, there are still multitudes who are not aware of this wonderful opportunity. We are in great need of publicity in order to increase the benefit to Jews of readily available Halachic expertise.
