2 By: Rabbi Ychanan Schnall Restrictins f The Three Weeks Music Playing and listening t music fr recreatin, is prhibited. 1 It is permitted t play music fr yung children but this shuld nt be dne publicly. 2 Nn-recreatinal music is permitted. Therefre: - One may play music as a surce f incme t tutr yung children r t benefit nn-jews. 3 Nte that this becmes frbidden during the Nine Days. - Rhythmic music that is necessary fr exercise is permitted. 4 - Passively hearing music as it is played fr children, while n hld during a phne call r shpping in a stre is permitted. 5 It is questinable whether A Cappella style music is permitted. One shuld cnsult his r her rabbi regarding its status. Mst authrities permit singing withut musical accmpaniment. 6 Dancing withut music is generally nt allwed but it is permitted at a Sheva Brachs celebratin. 7 Haircuts and Shaving Haircuts and shaving are nt permitted during this time. 8 If nt shaving culd cause smene t lse a jb r incur a significant financial lss, it is permitted t shave at least until The Nine Days begin. 9 See The Nine Days regarding shaving during that time. A mustache that interferes with eating may be trimmed. 10 Brushing r cmbing hair is permitted. 11 Wmen are als restricted frm taking haircuts. 12 Nnetheless: Tweezing is permitted 13, wmen f marriageable age may shave bdy hair 14, and married wmen wh have hair grwing by their temples may remve it fr tznius purpses. 15 Cutting and/r washing a sheitel is permitted until The Nine Days begin. 16 It is questinable if children can receive a haircut during this time. 17 It is permitted t cut hair in extenuating circumstances. 18 Fr example, if a child gave himself a haircut it wuld be permitted t even it ut s that the child lks nrmal. If a bris ccurs during the Three Weeks, the parents, mhel and sandek (the ne wh hlds the baby during the circumcisin) are allwed t take a haircut and shave that day 19 in hnr f the mitzvah. 20 Shehechiyanu During The Three Weeks, activities that require recitatin f the Shehechiyanu blessing are avided. Therefre, if ne wuld recite the Shehechiyanu blessing when wearing new, imprtant clthing (such as an expensive suit), it is nt permitted t begin wearing such clthing at this time. The same wuld be true fr eating an enjyable, seasnal fruit r vegetable fr the first time since its seasn began. 21 These activities are permitted n Shabbs 22. (See The Nine Days regarding wearing new clthes n Shabbs during that time.) One wh wishes t buy a car, huse r significant new appliance during this time shuld cnsult a rabbi fr prper guidelines. 23 Dangerus Activities Ptentially dangerus activities are avided during The Three Weeks since it is an minus time f year. 24 2

3 By: Rabbi Ychanan Schnall The Nine Days The Nine Days begin at the start f the Jewish mnth f Av. Since the destructin f the Batei Mikdsh ccurred during this mnth, it carries an increased level f murning. The murning further intensifies during the week in which Tisha B Av falls. General Restrictins Hme imprvements such as building, painting r planting are generally nt allwed. 25 If these activities are f an urgent nature they may be perfrmed. 26 Cnstructin thrugh a cntractr that began befre the Nine Days may cntinue. If ne is in the psitin t persuade the cntractr (mnetarily r therwise) t pstpne wrk until after the Tisha B Av, it is virtuus t d s. 27 Since this time f year is beset with misfrtune, it is advisable nt t schedule elective surgeries r curt cases during this time. If pssible, these shuld be pstpned until Elul (the next mnth in the Jewish calendar). 28 Even thse wh were permitted t shave fr financial reasns during The Three Weeks shuld refrain frm ding s during The Nine Days. If shaving is financially unavidable, a rabbi must be cnsulted. 29 Cutting nails is usually restricted during the week in which Tisha B Av ccurs. This year, Tisha B Av falls n Sunday and n restrictins are applied. Becming engaged is permitted but it may nt be celebrated with a meal. 30 Musical instruments are nt played, even n a prfessinal basis. 31 It is cmmendable t avid making purchases that bring ne jy. 32 Clthes, Twels and Linen - Purchasing New clthing, twels r linen may nt be purchased during this time. 33 These items may nt be purchased even if they are intended t be used after The Nine Days. 34 In cases f necessity, a rabbi shuld be cnsulted. 35 It is permitted t repair garments during this time unless the repair will be s extensive that the garment will lk like new r if the garment will need t be cleaned in rder t repair it Washing/Irning Clthing, twels r linen may nt be washed r irned 37 during the Nine Days irrespective f when they will be used. 38 These items may nt even be given during this time t a nn-jew fr immediate cleaning and laundering. 39 Small stains may be remved with sme water. 40 Children s clthing that cnstantly becme dirty may be washed 41 but nly in a discreet manner. 42 Regarding smene wh has n clean clthes t wear, a rabbi shuld be cnsulted Using Neither new 44, nr freshly laundered clthes, twels r linen may be wrn r used during The Nine Days. 45 Fr these items t be permitted, they must have already been wrn r used at least ne time since they were last washed. 3

4 By: Rabbi Ychanan Schnall After wearing smething fr a shrt time 46 it is n lnger cnsidered new/freshly laundered. Therefre, it is advisable t wear a number f changes f clthing fr shrt time-perids befre the Nine Days begin s that these n lnger new/freshly laundered - but still clean - clthes will be available fr The Nine Days. Since the restrictin des nt apply n Shabbs, this preparatin may als be dne n Shabbs during the Nine Days. Be aware that this is nly permitted fr garments that culd ptentially be suitable fr Shabbs. 47 In additin, when preparing n Shabbs this intent may nt be verbalized r apparent. 48 Children wh are t yung t cmprehend the cncept f murning r wh are cnstantly dirtying themselves are nt subject t this restrictin. Fr Shabbs, freshly laundered clthes and twels are permitted but bed linen remains restricted. 49 Huseguests that arrive during The Nine Days may be given fresh linen. 50 If a bris ccurs during The Nine Days, the parents, mhel and sandek are allwed t wear freshly laundered clthes in hnr f the mitzvah. 51 One wh is meeting a prspective date fr the first time and is stuck withut anything presentable, shuld cnsult a rabbi. 52 Shwering, Bathing and Swimming Unnecessary shwering, bathing r swimming is frbidden during this time. 53 Shwering t remve dirt r sweat is permitted. 54 The shwering time must be limited t what is necessary and the water may nly be as ht as is needed t remve the dirt r sweat. 55 Fr mitzvah purpses (such as fr wmen s mikvah preparatin) shwering and bathing with ht water is permitted 56. Accrding t many pinins, this includes taking a shwer as usual in hnr f Shabbs. 57 Men wh use the mikvah every single Friday may use it this week as well 58 as lng as the mikvah is nt ht 59. One wh needs t swim fr therapy shuld cnsult a rabbi. 60 Children under the age f six may swim in a kiddy pl r run thrugh a sprinkler but this may nt be dne as a grup r in a public lcatin. 61 Fd Limitatins Wine, grape juice, beef, fwl and any f their derivatives may nt be cnsumed during this time. 62 In this cntext, the definitin f derivatives is if the meat flavr wuld be enugh t make a cnsumer fleishig, and if the wine s taste is discernible. 63 These fds shuld nt be fed t children. 64 These fds are permissible at a meal hnring a mitzvah such as the Shabbs meals, a bris r pidyn haben 65. Befre Shabbs begins, it is permitted t feed children meat r chicken frm the Shabbs meal. If these fds are essential fr ne s health and n substitute is available, they are permitted. 66 Even in this instance, if fwl is an ptin it is preferred ver beef. 67 Havdalah During The Nine Days, the wine r grape juice used fr havdalah is preferably given t a yung child t drink 68. If n child is available, the ne wh recites Havdalah drinks the wine himself. 69 The child shuld be an age that he/she is t yung t be expected t murn but ld enugh t cmprehend the cncept f making blessings. 70 This is apprximately six years ld 71. 4

5 By: Rabbi Ychanan Schnall The child des nt recite his wn blessing befre drinking but relies n the Hagafen that was mentined during havdalah. Sme avid the issue f drinking wine during The Nine Days by reciting Havdalah ver beer. 72 Siyum A siyum is a meal that celebrates a cmpletin f a significant bk f Trah. This includes a Gemara tractate, a seder f Mishna, r a bk f Tanach that was studied with the Rishnim (early cmmentaries) 73. Since this meal celebrates a mitzvah, it may include meat and wine. 74 One shuld neither rush, nr deliberately delay regular studies in rder t make a siyum specifically during this time. It is als inapprpriate t celebrate with a festive meal if ne des nt nrmally celebrate this way the rest f the year. 75 There is nthing wrng with studying smething new and scheduling it in rder t make a siyum during this time 76. All guests that wuld nrmally be invited thrughut the year may participate. 77 In a regular year, the week in which Tisha B Av falls is mre restricted regarding whm may be invited t jin the siyum. This year, Tisha B Av is n Sunday and this added restrictin is nt applicable. Tisha B Av The 9 th f Av On Tisha B Av, bth the first and secnd Batei Mikdsh (Temples) began t burn. In additin, many ther tragedies thrughut ur histry have ccurred n this day. 78 In rder t assist us with feelings f remrse and repentance, we are nt allwed t eat r drink n Tisha B Av. In additin, it is frbidden t: wash any area f the bdy, smear ils, creams r ltins n any area f the bdy, wear leather ftwear and have marital relatins 79. The restrictins begin at sunset Tisha B Av eve 80, cntinue thrugh the entire fllwing day and cnclude fifty minutes after sunset (fr thse living in Nrth America) 81. When the 9 th f Av falls n Shabbs, the fast day is pstpned t Saturday night thrugh Sunday. Nte: As with every day in the Jewish calendar, there are pints in time that vary by lcatin. On Tisha B Av, tw imprtant times t be aware f are sunset and chatzs (midday). Cnsult t see what these are in yur area. When Shabbs is the 9 th f Av This year ( ), the 9th f Av falls n Shabbs and the fast is pstpned frm Mtz ei Shabbs (Saturday Night) thrugh Sunday evening. Because f this, sme unusual laws apply. Seudah Hamafsekes On a regular year, a murner s meal called the Seudah Hamafsekes is eaten during the afternn befre the fast starts. Since this meal wuld be unbecming t the hnr f Shabbs, it is nt eaten. Instead, all Shabbs meals are eaten nrmally. 82 Be careful hwever that the third meal cncludes well befre sunset which is the time that the fast begins (even thugh it is still cnsidered as Shabbs in all respects). 83 Extra cmpany shuld nt be invited fr the third Shabbs meal but it may be eaten with any usual guests. 84 Single Restrictin Since the Shabbs preceding Tisha B av is the true 9 th f Av, marital relatins are nt allwed n Friday night 85 (unless it is the mikvah night 86 ). Remving Leather Shes As sn as the time fr Shabbs cncludes, ne recites the wrds bruch hamavdil bein kdesh lechl /Blessed is the One wh separates between hly and mundane and remves his/her leather shes. 87 5

6 By: Rabbi Ychanan Schnall Havdalah On Saturday night, nly the blessing ver fire is recited (withut any intrductry verses and additinal blessings). 88 In sme cmmunities it is recited at shul befre Eicha is read. 89 As with every time Havdalah is recited, wmen are nt bligated t hear this blessing. 90 See Tisha B Av Cnclusin fr what is recited fr when the fast cncludes. Tisha B Av Restrictins Eating and Drinking Tisha B Av is a stringent fast day - secnd nly t Ym Kippur. 91 As a general rule, even thse wh are ill, weak, nursing r pregnant are suppsed t fast but a rabbi shuld always be cnsulted. 92 It is frbidden t fast if it culd put ne s life at risk. 93 Wmen wh are within thirty days after childbirth d nt have t fast n Tisha B Av. 94 Within seven days f childbirth, they are nt allwed t fast. 95 Necessary pills and medicatin may be swallwed withut liquid. 96 If this is nt feasible, a rabbi shuld be cnsulted. 97 Even thse wh are nt fasting may nt eat especially tasty fds r treats. This includes children under bar/bas mitzvah wh are ld enugh t understand the cncept f murning. 98 This year, since Tisha B Av falls immediately after Shabbs, all adults wh will be eating n Tisha B Av must first say Havdalah (as is described in Tisha B Av Cnclusin). 99 One shuld cnsult a rabbi regarding the type f beverage t use fr this Havdalah. 100 Children d nt listen t Havdalah befre they eat n Tisha B Av. 101 Bathing and Washing The restrictin includes washing any part f the bdy with water f any temperature. 102 Fllwing, are exceptins t the rule: It is permitted t clean dirt r germs but the washing must be limited t the affected area. 103 If the dirt r germs are spread ut, the general area may be washed. 104 Washing fr medical purpses is allwed. 105 In the mrning, hands are washed in the usual alternating manner but nly up t the jints where the fingers attach t the palm. 106 The usual blessing is nt recited until after ne washes frm using the bathrm 107. After ne s hands are dried, even thugh they are smewhat mist, ne may rub his r her eyes. Any glutinus discharge may be washed away with water. 108 It is als permitted t wash ne s hands in this manner befre praying mincha 109 r after leaving a cemetery 110. If it is necessary t wash an bject (such as fd fr a child), ne des nt need t wrry abut inadvertently getting his r her hands wet. 111 Leather Ftwear Ftwear cntaining leather may nt be wrn n Tisha B Av. 112 This restrictin applies t children nce they are ld enugh t understand the cncept f murning. Cmmn practice applies it t yunger children as well. 113 Leather inserts are permitted if they are necessary fr a medical cnditin

7 By: Rabbi Ychanan Schnall Aninting Oils, alchl, ltins, creams r perfumes may nt be rubbed nt any part the bdy. 115 Spreading these items is permitted fr a medical purpse. 116 It is permissible t use dedrant n Tisha B Av. 117 Marital Relatins Marital relatins are frbidden n Tisha B Av. All interactive limitatins that apply when a wman is a niddah are als in effect thrughut the evening f Tisha B Av. 118 Additinal Restrictins Since studying Trah generates jy, the nly Trah subjects that may be studied n this day are thse related t murning, tragedy r Tisha B Av. This prhibitin als applies t teaching children. 119 Until midday, ne may nt sit n a seat that is higher than twelve inches. 120 This bligatin des nt apply t thse have physical limitatins due t age r infirmity. 121 This is permissible in cases f necessity such as when riding in a vehicle r using the bathrm. Activities that culd be distracting frm the murnful spirit f the day are frbidden at least until midday. Sme examples f this grup are ging t wrk, any general skilled labr, cleaning the huse and yard wrk. 122 If a significant financial lss will result frm nt wrking, a rabbi shuld be cnsulted. 123 When sleeping during Tisha B Av evening, it is prper t reduce ne s cmfrt such as remving a pillw r sleeping n the flr. 124 This behavir is nt relevant fr the aged r infirm. We d nt greet thers n Tisha B Av. If smene mistakenly greets yu, reply in a subdued fashin and if sensitively pssible, infrm them f their mistake. 125 This is particularly relevant when answering the telephne since the usual greeting f hell is nt permitted. A practical suggestin is t answer a call with saying yes, r this is. Other than charity, we d nt give gifts n Tisha B Av. 126 Tallis and tefilin are nt wrn until the mincha prayers but the smaller tzitzis garment is wrn as usual. 127 It is questinable if a blessing shuld be recited when putting n the tzitzis garment in the mrning and it is mitted. 128 T avid any issue, it is ideal t leave them wrn thrughut the night f Tisha B Av. 129 Tisha B Av Cnclusin When breaking the fast n Sunday night, eating r drinking is generally nt allwed until after hearing Havdalah. This Havdalah cnsists f the blessing ver wine and the blessing f Hamavdil bein kdesh l chl. (The usual, intrductry verses and the blessings ver spices and fire are mitted.) 130 As with every Havdalah: - It is permitted t drink water befre hearing Havdalah A wman shuld ideally hear it recited by a man (r by ver bar mitzvah) wh has nt yet fulfilled his bligatin. Otherwise, she recites it herself 132 and drinks the wine r grape juice If ne is des nt like wine r grape juice, a rabbi shuld be cnsulted fr which ther beverages may be used If at least three unces f wine are cnsumed, the after-blessing al hagefen is recited. This is true even if a bread meal is abut t begin. 135 (Unless mre wine will be drunk during the meal. Then, the al hagefen is nt recited. 136 ) - One wh frgt t recite the al hagefen and already started t eat a bread meal shuld have specific intentin that the Birchas Hamazn after the meal cver the wine as well

8 By: Rabbi Ychanan Schnall Pst Tisha B Av Since the Batei Mikdsh (Temples) cntinued t burn thrugh the tenth f Av, restrictins usually cntinue thrugh the day fllwing Tisha B Av. 138 This year hwever, since Tisha B Av was pstpned, the nly restrictins that remain in effect are listening t music, and cnsuming meat, wine r grape juice 139 (with the exceptin f Havdallah 140 ). These activities becme permitted the mrning after Tisha B Av. What t Expect in Shul Be Prepared! We sit n a lw seat r the flr until midday. If yu dn t want t sit n the flr, bring alng a cushin r lw seat. Kinns Additinal texts called kinns are recited n Tisha B Av (primarily during the daytime). These are nt fund in the siddur but in a specific bk called a kinns. The bks are usually available at the synaggue but if yu prefer a translated versin, yu will likely need t bring yur wn. It is highly recmmended t buy a kinns that includes the adapted prayers fr Tisha B Av. The purpse f reciting kinns is t aruse feelings f murning which can nly be accmplished when they are read slwly, with understanding and meaning. Unfrtunately, due t their difficult, antique Hebrew style and the general Tisha B Av stress, many synaggues read the kinns quite fast. In this case, it is prper t say them independently f the cngregatin. One wh has limited time shuld ask a knwledgeable persn which items shuld be priritized. (It is advisable t find this ut in advance f Tisha B Av.) It is perfectly fine t use a translated versin and recite them in a familiar language. Ma ariv Ma ariv is immediately fllwed with the reading f the Bk f Eicha (Lamentatins) and a few kinns. The entire service usually lasts abut an hur. Even in synaggues that the chazzan usually wears a tallis fr ma ariv, he des nt wear ne the night f Tisha B Av. 1. Regular ma ariv prayers are recited up t - but nt including - aleinu. 2. The Bk f Eicha (Lamentatins) is read. Lights in the shul are dimmed during the reading. 3. When the reader cncludes Eicha, a specific verse (nted in mst printed editins) is read in unisn by the cngregatin. 4. After the reading cncludes, the first few kinns are recited. 5. Prayers cntinue with v atah kadsh (the secnd paragraph that is said befre aleinu in ma ariv at the cnclusin f Shabbs), kadish is recited fllwed by aleinu. - The phrase beginning with tiskabel is mitted frm this kadish. Shacharis Shacharis tgether with all the kinns usually lasts a few hurs. If yu need t leave early, bear in mind that until midday it frbidden t d activities that culd distract smene frm the murnful spirit f the day (see: Additinal Restrictins, abve). The tallis and tefilin are nt wrn during shacharis. As mentined abve, althugh the tallis is nt wrn, the smaller tzitzis garment is. Its tzitzis are nt kissed during prayers. 1. Prayers thrugh shmneh esrei are said as usual. The chazzan s repetitin has a few changes that are nted in any siddur. Nthing needs t be repeated if these changes were mitted. 8

9 By: Rabbi Ychanan Schnall 2. Tachanun is nt recited and the Trah is taken ut. There is a specific reading and haftrah fr Tisha B Av. 3. After the Trah reading, kinns are recited. 4. After kinns, ashrei is recited, lamenatzayach is mitted and the prayer uva letziyn is recited but the secnd verse is skipped. Aleinu is recited and the shir shel ym is delayed until mincha. Mincha Expect mincha t last at least twice as lng than usual. The tallis and tefilin are wrn during mincha (regardless f whether ne is praying with a minyan). Mincha begins with the shir shel ym fllwed by the murner s kadish. Ashrei is recited fllwed by a half-kadish. The Trah is then remved and read frm with the usual fast-day reading. - Three verses are read alud by the cngregatin ahead f the reader. - The standard haftrah fr fast-days is read with its accmpanying blessings. After the Trah reading, Shmneh Esrei is recited with tw insertins (ne in the blessing V yerushalayim and ne in Shma Kleinu.) - If the insertins were mitted, Shmneh Esrei is nt repeated. Tachanun is skipped. Cncluding Tisha B Av At the cnclusin f Tisha B Av, ma ariv is recited as usual. If there is a mn, kidush levanah is said. It is preferable t break the fast befre reciting kidush levana but nt if it will cause ne t miss saying the kidush levana with a minyan. Regular shes shuld be wrn when reciting kidush levana. (One wh wishes t ensure that he will nt miss reciting kidush levana with a minyan shuld plan ahead and bring them with him t maariv.) אשירה לד ' כי גמל עלי I am indebted t my wife fr all the patience and supprt she cntinues t have fr me.
