PARSHAS HASHAVUA
כי יקח איש אשה חדשה לא יצא בצבא
DEVARIM 24:5
The Mitzvah of
accumulating wealth
There is a מחלוקת ראשונים if the איסור of leaving the wife during the first year after marriage is applicable only when leaving her to join the army or even for other reasons one may not leave her alone for the first year.
The
שׁו"ת חתם סופר
(EH 2 155) writes that even according to the
חינוך
who holds that one may not leave his wife even for other reasons than joining the army will admit that if he leaves her for a Mitzvah then he may do so.
Therefore one may leave his wife behind even the first year after marriage to go out and earn a living being it's a Mitzvah.
The Chasam Sofer Concludes
The חתם סופר concludes that
בזמן הזה not only
earning a living is a Mitzvah but
accumulating wealth is also a Mitzvah
as mentioned in Shulchan Aruch (Rema O.Ch.248:4)
❦
יהי רצון that we should all be
זוכה to be
מקיים this Mitzvah among all other
Mitzvos with all the
הידורים and amass
lots & lots of wealth
אכיה"ר
