halacha - Alarm clock handling on Shabbos


Are you allowed to touch an alarm clock on Shabbos?



Answer



You are allowed to touch an alarm clock on shabas. One may touch anything on shabas that one may touch during chol. (Rema O.C. 308:3)


As explained there, the prohibitions of Muktzah only apply to moving an object, not touching it.
