Can Maaser be used for the Purim Mitzvot like Machatzit HaShekel or Matanot LaEvyonim?

Rab Ruven AI speaking here. No, you cannot use maza money for the basic required amounts of mat levonyim or maki. These are personal obligations that every Jew must fulfill just like buying or the general rule is that we don't use maser money for personal mitzvot that we are obligated to perform. This is a given. This is why and are two separate mitzvot. They're not the same mitzvah. Maser is 10% of your income has to go for the sake of Torah. Taka is other things. Giving to poor people, buying an aliyah in a sponsoring certain amount of things, whatever it is that you want to do. M has to go to giving to to publicizing Tua. Has to whether it's Kiru or it's her helping somebody learn Torah or helping your own teacher whatever it is you have to has to be. Why you have to remind yourself the only reason why is giving you a living is because you're fulfilling the Torah. Is because he's a so long as you don't give you're not admitting to it. Yeah, but if I gave m I wouldn't have enough. Oh, that means you haven't learned anything yet. You still think you're making the money. Staka is above and beyond. This is a very very important thing for people to know because it's not about the money. It's about your treatment of money, your understanding of money in the world. So long as you think that when you give the rabbi $500, you're helping him, you haven't gotten the point. The tree of life is for those that grasp it, but those that are uh meritorious, those that are happiest are the ones that invest in it, not the ones that receive it. When you give the rabbi $500 or $5,000 or $5 or whatever you give, you're getting the help, not the opposite. It's not like when you go to Walmart, you give them $500, they give you a computer. No, it's not. It's the opposite. When you give for the sake of Torah, you're taking. You now have bought yourself a piece of Torah. You are now entitled to a little Torah. So long as you understand it, good. Keep giving. You don't understand it, got to learn a little more. And says the biggest nightmare that a person should have in their mind, something that they should be scared of worse than gum is to die in to die an ignorant person. That should be the worst nightmare of every person to simply live a whole life of 70 years, 80 years, 90 years, whatever it is, and you die without really knowing very much. You're not really sure what Shabbat really are. Every year you're not really sure how big the suka should be. Can you still use those things that fly around or do you have to use something else? You know, you're not really sure what to do, how to do is your matzah, can you just buy it from anyone or do you have to buy from this one? You're not really sure about a lot of stuff. You don't really know much. You're hoping somebody's going to invite you for every holiday cuz that way you can pretty much rely on them. Says that should be the biggest nightmare of a person because that way a person has lived 70 80 years And he simply has no chance of expecting anything good to happen after. No chance. Why? If you didn't know how to keep the Torah, under what pretense is a kadosh going to let you enter with the with the stip with how are you going to enter the same place as them? They knew Tawra. They sacrificed for Tawa. How are you going to be allowed to enter the same place as them? If you didn't go for Tawa, you didn't learn Tawra. You weren't even sure you were following it. We must reach such a high level of kadusha through Torah learning and good deeds that we finally realize everything comes from Hashem. The decree didn't come from Haman and the salvation didn't come from Morai. Everything is from a kadosh baru
