SHAKING THE LULAV IN THE SUKKA

The (משנה ברורה (תרנ"א:ל"ד* doesn't know the reason
why the Arizal held to shake the Lulav in the Sukah.

a) Since we sleep in the Sukah, we don't want to delay
the shaking of the Lulav immediately after getting up.

b) Kabalistic reason (ע"פ סוד)

"If a) is the correct reason, then


THE ONLY TIME TO BENTCH LULAV IN THE SUKKAH

If he sleeps in the Sukkah and he was careful to bring his neigel vasser and Daled Minim into the Sukkah the night before (and he doesn't need the bathroom when he wakes up)


1. If he sleeps in his bedroom, he should make sure to shake his Lulav in his bedroom as soon as he wakes up.

2. If he sleeps in the Sukkah and he did not leave his  Daled Minim in the Sukkah before he went to sleep, when he wakes up, he should not shake in the Sukkah, but rather in his house or wherever he left his Daled Minim.

3. If he is in Shul and he still didn't make a Brocho on his Lulav and Esrog, he should shake immediately in Shul and NOT go to the Shuls Sukkah to shake as not to wait any longer than necessary to shake.

4. If he wakes up before Netz, he should not shake in the Sukkah even if he left his Daled Minim in the Sukkah before he went to sleep."
