W ho isn’t interested in learning about an underutilized yet powerfully effective segulah for having children? Even if you don’t need it surely you know someone who does.
Here’s how this amazing segulah came to my attention. A yungerman let’s call him Shmully recently shared with me an incident that took place almost 15 years ago when he and two close friends let’s call them Yaakov and Dov were all learning in Eretz Yisroel.
Yaakov had a baby boy and asked HaRav Nosson Tzvi Finkel ztz”l the late Mirrer rosh yeshivah to serve as sandek at the bris. The Rosh Yeshivah was not well at the time which made his willingness to attend the simchah that much more special. When he arrived therefore Yaakov was certainly thrilled but also anxious to start the bris as quickly as possible so as not to detain the Rosh Yeshivah unnecessarily.
The baby was already at the hall but Dov and his wife who were supposed to be the kvatters had not yet arrived. This couple had been married for over four years and still had no children. And Yaakov was eager to honor his friend with this well-known segulah for children. With the Rosh Yeshivah waiting however Yaakov felt compelled to find another couple to replace them.
