Hallel as Substitute for Megillah Reading

From: Rabbi Moshe Sofer

To: Rabbi Yehuda Assad

Description

Rabbi Yehuda Assad asks why poskim ignore the Meiri's ruling that Hallel may substitute for Megillah reading on Purim. The Chasam Sofer explains the Meiri's Talmudic reasoning but rejects his position, ruling Hallel is at most a last resort.
