Does the tzitzit obligation depend on the time of day (day/night) or on the garment's designation (daytime/nighttime garment)?
Synopsis
Night is not the time of tzitzit, derived from 'and you shall see it' (Numbers 15:39). The dispute is whether exemption depends on the time the garment is worn (Rambam) or on the garment's designation (Rosh).
