'''''Amira L'Nochri''''' (Hebrew: אמירה לנכרי, lit. "Instructing a Non-Jew") is a halachic compendium that collects all the rulings in the [[Shulchan Aruch HaRav]] pertaining to the practice of asking a non-Jew to perform a prohibited act on [[Shabbos]], accompanied by source references and annotations.

==Overview==
The laws governing what a Jew may and may not ask a non-Jew to do on Shabbos represent one of the more intricate areas of [[Hilchos Shabbos]] (the laws of Shabbos). The relevant material is scattered across many tractates of the [[Talmud]], the works of the medieval and later halachic authorities, and throughout the Shulchan Aruch itself.

The [[Alter Rebbe]], Rabbi [[Schneur Zalman of Liadi]], invested considerable effort in clarifying these laws in a thorough and practically applicable manner. In certain instances his final rulings, recorded in his later revision of the Shulchan Aruch (known as the ''Mahadura Basra'', or "later edition"), represent a departure from positions he had held in his earlier text.

The volume is distinctive in that it draws together, for the first time in a single place, every ruling on this subject found across the Alter Rebbe's [[Shulchan Aruch HaRav]] — including the supplementary glosses gathered in the ''[[Kuntres Acharon]]'' (the "Final Pamphlet," a collection of deeper analytical notes appended to the Shulchan Aruch). The editors also added a division into chapters and sub-sections, marginal source references, cross-references, annotations, and analytical discussions.

==Compilation==
The halachic material was compiled by the editors of the new critical edition of the Shulchan Aruch HaRav: Rabbi [[Shalom Dovber Levin]], Rabbi [[Yitzchak Wilhelm]], and Rabbi [[Avraham Elashvili]].

The book was published in [[5767]] (2007) by [[Karnei Hod Torah]] and [[Otzar HaChassidim]].
