===Traveling, Showering, Shaving===
# If one always goes to [[minyan]] and there is a set time, it is permissible to travel, shower, and shave, even after 9½ hours. <Ref>Piskei Teshuvot 232:3 </ref>
# Most poskim assume that the prohibition of traveling also applies to traveling before one davens Mincha or Maariv,<ref>Rabbeinu Manoach quoted by Kesef Mishnah on Rambam Hilchos Tefillah 6:4, Mishnah Berurah 89:19-20. However, Halichos Shlomo 2:11 footnote 50 points out that the formulation of the Shulchan Aruch and especially Shulchan Aruch Harav indicate that the prohibition applies solely to Shacharis. See also Siach Halachah 19:17</ref> although the custom is to be more lenient regarding Minchah and Maariv for someone who would anyway be waiting for the usually scheduled minyan or for Minchah Ketanah.<ref>Halichos Shelomo 2:11:16</ref>
# If one always goes to [[minyan]] at a set time, it is permissible to shower and shave even after 9½ hours. <Ref>Piskei Teshuvot 232:3 </ref>
