If the maftir became mute mid-haftarah and another person completes it, must the replacement begin from the beginning?
Synopsis
The Mechaber rules that the replacement must restart from the beginning of the haftarah, just as in a Torah reading. The Taz distinguishes this from a shaliach tzibur who becomes mute mid-prayer and may restart from where the first stopped.
