Is a Bnei Noah required or forbidden from taking on Jewish observances? This article discusses specific questions concerning: Shabbat, Tefillin, Mezuzah, Tzitzit, and using a Jewish Prayer book. Various halachic opinions are given on which parts of Torah observance (if any) are forbidden to non-Jews, and one ruling from a Jewish court which specifically deals with Noahide issues is brought.
Additional questions need to be addressed such as whether a Bnei Noah is encouraged or discouraged from voluntarily taking on any of the Jewish mitzvot.
The possibility that mandatory Noahide "mitzvot"exist, beyond the seven laws, exist is outside the scope of this article. This would include observances either decided upon or "inherited" by the Noahide community itself, such as circumcision, tithing, various prayer customs, etc.
