Shu”t Chasam Sofer (O.Ch. 15b-16 ) The
Shoel asks the Chasam Sofer about People
who wear woolen clothing if they are allowed to
serve as a Shliach Tzibur.
The Shoel heard that Nusach
Sefard doesn’t tolerate people who wear woolen clothing.
People who do so (wear wool) are not worthy to daven Nusach Sefard.
In Teshuvah # 15 the Ch. S. ridicules this
statement. He says even if the chumra comes
from not wanting to be nichshal in Shatnez, it doesn’t make
sense to differentiate between
Nusach Ashkenaz and Sefard.
In Teshuva 16 , Although The Chasam Sofer still disagrees with the Shoel , he treats the Shoel more
respectfully, being
the Yismach Moishe confirmed , the disallowing of
a Shaliach Tzibbur who wears wool ( to daven Nusach Sefard).
Perhaps we can say this
statement originated by a Gadol who might
have said, " people
who daven Nusach Sefard don’t wear wool
clothing". He was referring to Sefardim who reside
in warm countries.
All he was trying to say,
was a fact, Sefardim being they live in warm climate
countries don’t wear wool. ( by doing so they are
not nichshal in Shatnez). He never
meant to say , davening Nusach Sefard
requires one not to wear wool clothing.
