Kitzur Shulchan Oruch - Hebrew & English - 3 Volume Set

The Kitzur Shulchan Oruch by Rabbi Shlomo Ganzfried is one of the most beloved and widely studied works of practical halacha. First published in the 19th century, this sefer was written with the goal of providing every Jew—regardless of background or learning level—with a clear, concise, and reliable guide to daily observance of Jewish law.

True to its name, the Kitzur (meaning "concise") presents the laws in a straightforward manner, stating what is permitted and what is forbidden without hesitation or ambiguity. Drawing from the authoritative rulings of the Shulchan Oruch and its major commentaries, Rabbi Ganzfried organized the halachos in a way that makes them accessible for daily reference and review.

This edition, translated and annotated by Rabbi Eliyahu Touger, brings the timeless wisdom of the Kitzur to the English-speaking audience. With clear translation, helpful notes, and references to contemporary halachic applications, this volume is ideal for both the beginner looking to establish a solid foundation in halacha and the seasoned learner seeking regular review.

Whether studied in depth or read as a daily limud, the Kitzur Shulchan Oruch remains a cornerstone of halachic study and personal avodas Hashem.
