In this video we discuss whether one is allowed to make an order on Amazon or any other online retailer on Friday, where the delivery date of the item is set that the item will arrive on Shabbat? Is it considered amira l’akum (instructing a goy to work on Shabbat), which is not allowed, or is this different? What about if the transaction takes place earlier, on Thursday and set for Shabbat delivery. Is that different?
