סימן פ סעיף ט

אָסוּר לִרְדּוֹת דְּבַשׁ הַמְחֻבָּר בְּכַוֶּרֶת. וְכֵן אָסוּר לְרַסֵּק חַלּוֹת דְּבַשׁ, אֲפִלּוּ נִתְלְשׁוּ אֶתְמוֹל מֵהַכַּוָרֶת. וְאִם לֹא רִסֵּק אוֹתן קֹדֶם שַׁבָּת, אֲזַי הַדְּבַשׁ הַזָּב מֵהֶן בַּשַׁבָּת אָסוּר. אֲבָל הַדְּבַשׁ הַזָּב בַּכַּוֶּרֶת, מֻתָּר (סִימָן שכ"א ובחיי"א).

It is forbidden to remove honey from a beehive.³⁴See Maseches Shevi’is 10: 7. The Sages hold that this act is not prohibited by Biblical law, but is Rabbinically imposed. Rambam (Shabbos 21: 6) and Shulchan Aruch (321: 13) agree. The Chachamim [Sages] maintain that a beehive has the status of something that is attached to the ground, and, therefore, it is forbidden to detach it on Shabbos. It is also forbidden to crush honeycombs, even if they were removed from the hive before Shabbos. If the honeycomb was not crushed before Shabbos, the honey that flows from it on Shabbos is forbidden.³⁵If you crushed the honeycomb before Shabbos, you may use the honey that flows from the comb on Shabbos, even though it is still connected to the hive. (Magein Avraham) ³⁶Crushing before Shabbos must be thorough, otherwise, you may not use the honey on Shabbos, lest you come to further crush the comb. (see Biur Halachah 321: 13) But honey flowing from the hive itself is permitted (to be eaten on Shabbos).
