Mechitzah - Opaque?

Hi,

This is a controversial topic, but the position of Rav Moshe Feinstein was that a mechitzah for prayer should be entirely opaque, although there could be small holes which would not encourage frivolity.

Rav Moshe did acknowledge that some accept a mechitzah which has gaps of less than three inches.

(Rav Moshe Feinstein, Igrot Moshe Orach Chaim 4:29, 32)

מועדים לשמחה,
Mordechai
