Stroller

Asked by Jay · June 19, 2004 · Shabbat

Question

Can you please elaborate a bit regarding your anser about a stroller on grass, sine I don't understand. 1. If you push a stroller on grass you don't make any grooves in the ground, so why would it be forbidden. 2.You do make grooves if you push on dirt or mud, but you also make a mark if you walk on mud or slghtly wet dirt. So is it forbidden to walk on mud on Shabbat 3. When it comes to de-Oraita, do we say that a pesik reisha de-lo nicha leh is permissible, or is that only in a derabbanan? Thank you P.S. When is Rabbi Abadi returning to Israel?
