My Mezuzah fell of the door, should I replace it with a Bracha?
This matter is under debate in the Poskim. Practically, if the Mezuzah fell off the doorpost the blessing is to be repeated upon replacing it, and so is the implied opinion of Admur. However, some follow the opinion in Poskim who rule that a blessing is not to be recited if there are Mezuzos up by other doors.
