What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Musayof Synagogue’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

Maran writes In chapter 14, paragraph 4 It is permitted to take a friend's tallit to recite a blessing over it, provided one folds it if one found it folded; the same applies to tefillin, but it is forbidden to study from a friend's books without their consent, unless we assume they would agree to have them studied from. This ruling written by Maran is very notable. A person who does not have a tallit comes to the synagogue, has no tallit and no tefillin. There is someone in the synagogue who has a tallit And tefillin , a bag, and everything. Thank you very much. Is he allowed to take these tefillin? And is he allowed to wrap himself in these tzitzit? We have a rule: one who borrows without consent is a thief. Meaning, a person who takes an object from a friend (it doesn't matter which object) and does not ask for permission, is called a thief. Why is he called a thief? It is not his. How can you take and use an object that isn't yours? If the owner agrees, tells you explicitly, then you have no issue. But no one told you that you could take it and do with it whatever you want, therefore one who borrows without consent is a thief. A person, in examples...there are many examples like this: a person goes and sees a friend's object, a chair (doesn't matter what they have), and he uses it. At that
