Flatbush Fire alluded to at many Shabbos Hagadol drashos

 With the Flatbush fire so fresh on our minds many Rabbonim spoke about it in their shabbos hagadol drasha. They spoke about emunah of nistarim darkei hashem no matter how painful it is its always for our good.  Of course we have to make sure we do our utmost hishtadlus with safety but to make the conversation about smoke detectors and hotplates is missing the point. There is a message here for us Hashem lit a fire hes telling us something. Rabbonim said over from Gedolei Eretz yisrael that since the fire took place on shabbos we should be mechazek kavod shabbos and increase Torah learning on shabbos.

    Stubborn. The conversation about the smoke detectors and hotplates IS the point. Its a mitzvah to have smoke detectors and not own unreliable electrical appliances. It's as much as mitzvah as keeping kosher or Shabbos. Why is it so hard to consider that this is the message?
