Following Kabbalah in halachah

Hi,

Where there is debate among equal halachic authorities, we follow Kabbalistic tradition - but that is only regarding a tradition rooted in the Zohar. Later Kabbalistic writings, such as those of the Ari z"l, are considered to be on par with the halachic authorities involved in the debate.

(Rav Moshe Feinstein, Igrot Moshe Orach Chaim 4:3)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
