Shulchan Aruch, Yoreh De'ah Siman 355

Siman 355

Presented here for study, not as a practical ruling. The Shulchan Aruch rules by Sephardi custom, the Rema's glosses by Ashkenazi custom, and the Kitzur follows Ashkenazi custom. For a practical question, ask your rabbi.

א אֵין מַנִּיחִין מִטָּה שֶׁל אִשָּׁה בָּרְחוֹב, מִפְּנֵי הַכָּבוֹד. וְאֵין עוֹלִין בְּחֶבֶר עִיר עַל הָאִשָּׁה (טוּר).
1 A woman's bier is not set down in the open street out of respect; ( And one does not go up with the town scholar for a woman's sake).
