A r c h i v e s| Halacha - Mezuzah Folding | | Submitted by anonymous Answered by Rav Peretz Moncharsh | | Question: | | Answer: If they are folding it at a point which has writing, there is risk it could crack the letters rendering them invalid.

| Halacha - Mezuza | | Submitted by anonymous Answered by Rav Peretz Moncharsh | | Question: | | Answer:
It is appropriate to show our love and respect for the mitzva of mezuza by kissing it when we pass by, just like we kiss the Sefer Torah in shul. However, there is no obligation in halacha. A doctor's office is obligated in a mezuza, as it is a place where the doctor would occasionally eat and even take a nap, so it is used similarly to a house.

| Halacha - mezuza | | Submitted by chaim Answered by Rav Peretz Moncharsh | | Question: | | Answer: The mezuza always goes on what would be the right side of the door when walking through it in the usual direction. In this case that would be the right side going out, as you suggested.

| Halacha - Mezuzah - All Doors? | | Submitted by Paul Ilie Answered by Rav Peretz Moncharsh | | Question: | | Answer: One is obligated to attach a mezzuza to all the doors that are in the house, with the exception of bathroom doors and the like. The source for this is the Gemorra Menachos 34A and it is also brought in the Rambam Hilchos Mezuza 6:10 and Shulchan Aruch YD 284:16. I did not find it written explicitly if it is Rabbinic or Min HaTorah, but it seems to me that it is D'Oraisa based on the pasuk "You should write them on the doors (plural) of your house (singular)".
