Are you allowed to read newspapers, magazines, novels and secular books on Shabbat?
Thank you!
Nope
Thank you.
Just to clarify.
You can’t read anything other than Torah.
Correct?
We can broaden that slightly for you. Anything that will inspire your avodat Hashem can also be included. For example stories of Tzadikim and the like are also permitted.
What about the Jewish newspapers and magazines like Hamodia, Yated, Mishpachah, Ami etc. that have some Torah articles and some non-Torah articles?
They would be ok if you have the self discipline to not read the other articles and even more so the Ads.
Thank you!
