In שלחן ערוך (Y.D. 283) it
says One may not
write a מגילה with only a few פרשיות of the Torah.
One must write a complete ספר תורה
with all the
(פרשיות - (חמשה חומשי תורה
The ט"ז writes, that being it is too
expensive to write a
complete ספר תורה for children
learning Chumash,
therefore, Poskim were lenient and allowed to write
a מגילה with just a few פרשיות. The היתר is
based on the
Pasuk עת לעשות לה' הפרו תורתך.
There are times when we don't follow the Halacha for a
greater benefit. The היתר is only for this
purpose so
children will be able to learn etc.
Mori V’rabi Harav Hagaon R. Shlomo Miller Shlita
said he doesn't
know of a היתר for Sofrim
to write
theפרשת קטרת on a קלף. He doesn't think that
a Segulah
to become rich is enough of a reason for "הפרו תורתך"
Why can't one write a מגילה without it having all the פרשיות. What is the reason for this?
