Throughout every day questions arise about what, why and how we live as Jews, as Chassidim. Wouldn’t it be great to finally get some answers?
For example, we wake up every morning, put our hands together and say Modeh Ani. What is the deeper meaning behind the practice of saying Modeh Ani? And why do I say it with my hands together?
We wave our hands over the Shabbos candles three times before covering our eyes and saying the brocha. Why?
For those who are anxious to quench their thirst for knowledge and meaningfulness, we have created this website Facebook page and YouTube channel. With the Aibersther’s help, we hope to provide a platform for asking and receiving answers to the questions that you have had in the past, and the ones you will be inspired to ask in the future.

Chof Beis Shevat marks the yartzeit of the Rebbe’s wife, Rebbetzin Chaya Mushka Schneerson.

More than just a date on the calendar, this day represents a monumental shift in Chabad and a new stage in the revelation of Moshiach. In this special 28-minute episode of Stump The Rabbi, we dive into the Rebbe’s extraordinary response to the Rebbetzin’s passing, and the deep mystical lessons we can learn from her life.

Today is the yartzeit of the Rambam, and as the Lubavitcher Rebbe taught, the proper way to honor the Rambam is not just to remember him, but to learn his Torah.
In that spirit, we're resharing two episodes:

Why did the Rebbe choose Rambam for daily study Why not Shulchan Aruch or any other Sefer?

Is It Better to Learn One Perek of Rambam in Depth or Three Perakim Broadly?
