Our Mission

Virtual Halacha’s mission is to reach אמיתה של תורה and an understanding of practical הלכה למעשה together with our lomdim.

To achieve this

The learning is comprehensive… ▼

We start from the sugyas in gemara to see the underlying principles of halacha. And then, work through:

Rishonim
Tur and Beis Yosef
Shulchan Aruch
Achronim
Contemporary poskim such as Rav Moshe Feinstein, Rav Shlomo Zalman Auerbach, Rav Ovadiah Yosef

Every week’s learning packet also contains additional material and interesting extra sources relevant to the topic.

…and crystal clear ▼

Each week’s shiur by Rav Ami Merzel Shlita brilliantly weaves together the facets of halacha uncovered during the week. He then explains the practical halacha as he received it from Rav Nebenzahl Shlita, a talmid of Rav Shlomo Zalman Auerbach zt’l. Additionally, the dedicated WhatsApp group is staffed by sho’el u’meishiv’s as well as Rav Ami – so you get clarity when you need it.

“I was hoping to find a way to involve myself in learning Torah in a more meaningful and relatable way with a level of achrayus that would hold me in check. VHP fell into my lap at the perfect time. I was working as the videographer for one of their events, and I was so inspired, I jumped in by the new cycle! I’m so appreciative that Hashem led us to each other.’’
