However, ma'aser money may not be used towards any mitzvah on which one is anyway obligated to spend money. For example, one cannot use ma'aser funds for matanos la'evyonim on Purim. The same halacha applies to using ma'aser funds for tuition. Because one is required to spend money on matanos la'evyonim and on providing their children with a proper upbringing, therefore                                            ma'aser funds cannot be used to pay off these obligations.                                            צדקה ומשפט פ"ו ס"ב For all Yemei Ratzon material, click here                                                                                                                                                ou.org/women Share this message on: Facebook | Twitter You're receiving this because of your affiliation with our website.
