Tzinios for men

Question:

Is a man allowed to be totally undressed at home alone

 

Answer:

Hello,

Without getting into the general tznius issue that a person should not be unnecessarily undressed, since we are always in the presence of Hashem. Your question is worse because it is disrespectful to any holy seforim, a mezuza, or the Shabbos candles for the person’s ervah to be exposed in front of them.

Best wishes

הגה: נהגו לכסות הקטנים שלא יהיו ערומים בפני הנרות, משום ביזוי מצוה. וכ"כ הרוקח.
