โAnyone who studies Halachot every day is guaranteed that he is destined for the world-to-comeโ (Megilla 28b, Niddah 73a)
Question:
What is the custom of getting dressed on Purim?
Answer:
Some people have the custom to wear a costume on Purim.[1]
A man may not dress as a woman on Purim. [2]
One may not dress up as a priest on Purim.[3]
If one must pray with his costume, he may, but it should not cover his face. [4]
The โcustomโ of making fun or embarrassing others, even oneโs rabbis, on Purim should be abolished, and certainly not practiced.[5]
