Kitzur Shulchan Aruch, Siman 12 Part 2/2

AI summary (may contain mistakes)

The Kitzur calls running to shul a mitzvah, and asks for a pause at the door and an entry with awe, as before a king. From there the Kitzur turns to davening with the tzibur, with its cases for davening early and for a second minyan in the same shul. The Kitzur lets residents compel one another to build a shul and keep a steady minyan, and calls shuls and batei medrash a mikdash me'at.

Key points

• The Kitzur calls running to shul a mitzvah, even on Shabbos, but forbids running inside.
• The Kitzur prefers tallis and tefillin at home, but the anteroom where streets are not Jewish or dirty.
• The Kitzur lets residents compel one another to build a shul and bais medrash and buy seforim.
• The Kitzur lets a town fine its members to keep a steady minyan, even full-time learners.
• The Kitzur calls shuls and batei medrash a mikdash me'at and forbids idle talk in them.
