For the Ilui Neshama of Avraham ben Ester ZT’L. Lehavdeel
For the Refua Shlema of Yaakov Hai ben Margalit shlit’a.
Taken from Rav Ovadia’s Daily Halacha Email:
1. Although during the rest of the year one may listen to
music form a tape recorder, CD, and the like, especially songs with holy words
that are accompanied by musical instruments, Maran Harav Ovadia Yosef Shlit’a
writes that during Ben HaMetzarim (‘The
Three Weeks’) one should refrain from doing so. Nevertheless, when it comes to
a celebration of a Mitzvah, such as a wedding, Berit Milah, Pidyon Haben, Bar
Mitzvah, or conclusion of a Masechet of Talmud, one may listen to songs with
holy words that have musical accompaniment, for as long as it is in celebration
of a Mitzvah one can be lenient regarding this matter.
2. All forms of dancing are forbidden during Ben HaMetzarim
between 17th Tammuz (this past Shabbat) and the 9th of Av
(July 28), even when there is no musical accompaniment. This applies even when
the dancing conforms to the laws of modesty and holiness observed by Jews
(meaning even when men dance alone and women dance alone with a mehitza, partition, in between so they
don’t see each other). However, men and women dancing together is absolutely
forbidden all year round.
SHABBAT SHALOM!
