Q. Someone was asked to deliver a shiur he usually teaches daily, in the name of a sick person for his Refuah Shleima. He did remember that he was asked but couldn’t remember the proper Hebrew name given to him, only the family name which he did mention. Did he comply?
A. Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that he did comply with his commitment. In this case and in others, one should always mention when accepting the task being asked to do, to express that this is done B’li Neder.
