Q. We daven in a backyard minyan these covid times. Some of our neighbors are not very friendly and often complain unjustly to the noise. Now that we are going to start blowing shofar, they probably are going to have a fit. Can we blow the shofar inside one of our homes and the people will hear it but maybe only faintly. Is that OK?
A. Horav Shlomo Miller’s shlit’a opinion is that for Chodesh Elul shofar it is permitted, as long as they can hear it even faintly.
Rabbi A. Bartfeld as advised by Horav Shlomo Miller and Horav Aharon Miller Shlit’a
