Are you looking for a way to infuse your day with a bit of practical Halacha? The ever-popular Shemiras Shabbos K’hilchasa, often turned to as a reference work, works very well for daily study. I have put together a calendar for the first year of Shemiras Shabbos K’hilchasa Yomi. At the pace of two Halachos a day (or three if there are three remaining in a chapter in a day), we will complete half of the first volume in the first year, with the goal of completing the two volumes in about 3.5 years. Whether you use the Hebrew or English edition (the chapter and Halacha numbers are the same) is up to you. Whether you learn all, some, or none of the footnotes is also up to you. The calendar is designed for the most popular (1979) edition of the work, not the original (1965) or the new (2010) edition. If you have one on your shelf, it’s probably the one that fits the calendar.

The cycle starts Shabbos Bereishis. See calendar below. Enjoy your learning!

* Updated 12/11/24. Perek 3 has 84 Halachot, not 74. The calendar below reflects this correction.
