It is not justified to violate halacha when helping someone become observant. However, kiruv involves many halachic issues which relate to lifnei iver (stumbling blocks), such as; how can we teach Torah to someone who has not recited birkas haTorah; can we give food to someone who will not recite a blessing on it; is it justified to cause someone to sin for the sake of outreach? Rav Berkovits offers novel conclusions to many important kiruv issues in this important class.
