Can you sell a donkey to a non-Jew who will use it for Shabbat labor?
The Torah's "your animals shall rest" extends to preventing Shabbat work on animals you've sold or lent. A horse is the exception — it's for riding, not labor.
Question 2
You're on a journey and Shabbat arrives while your donkey is loaded. What do you do?
Remove the load manually while the animal stands in place. Don't lead it while loaded — that's making it work on Shabbat.
Question 3
Can a horse go out wearing its bridle and reins on Shabbat?
Reins and bridles serve the animal's control and safety, not as a burden. Items that protect or restrain the animal are permitted.
Question 4
Can you tie camels together and lead them as a string on Shabbat?
Leading tied-together camels is forbidden — it involves managing multiple animal burdens simultaneously. Even if they were tied before Shabbat.
Question 5
Does your obligation for Shabbat rest extend to your servants?
The Torah explicitly includes servants: "your manservant and maidservant shall rest." Your authority over them creates your obligation to ensure their Shabbat rest.
