(ב) יניח תפילין - ומי שאין ידו משגת לקנות ציצית ותפילין הכריעו האחרונים דתפילין קודמין כי ציצית הוא רק מצוה אם יש לו טלית של ד' כנפות ותפילין הוא חובה ומי שאינו מניחן הוא בכלל פושעי ישראל בגופן וכדלקמן בסימן ל"ז .וכ"ש לענין לקנות תפילין מהודרין וטלית נאה דתפילין קודמין לכו"ע והעולם נכשלין בזה .מי שאין ידו משגת לקנות ציצית ותפילין אין מחוייב לחזור על הפתחים כדי לקנותן אבל מי שידו משגת אך סומך על מה ששואל מאחרים אחר שיצאו בהן כתב הב"ח דעונשו גדול
English Translation
One should put on his tefillin - One who cannot afford to buy [both] tzitzis and tefillin, the Achronim conclude that tefillin takes precedence, since tzitzis is only a mitzvah if one has a four cornered garment, [whereas] tefillin is an obligation [no matter what], and one who does not put on tefillin is in the category of "sinners of Israel [who sin] with their body", as is seen below in siman 37. Certainly, regarding buying higher quality tefillin or a more beautiful tallis, the tefillin takes precedence, according to all opinions, and many err in this. One who cannot afford to buy tefillin or tzitzis is not obligated to go around collecting money in order to [get funds] to buy it. However, one who is able to afford it, but relies instead on borrowing it from others after they fulfilled their obligation, the Ba"ch wrote that their punishment is great.
