For the Ilui
Neshama of Avraham ben Ester ZT’L. Lehavdeel For the Refua Shlema of Yaakov Hai
ben Margalit shlit’a.
Translated from Halacha Yomit of Rav Ovadia Yosef shlit’a:
1. One who is seriously ill (that has been placed in bed,
even if its not danger that is life threatening) is exempt from fasting the
fast of Tisha B’Av. If one has a doubt whether they should fast or not, they
should ask a Hacham (Rabbi). If one is used to experiencing head pains there is
no room to allow food on Tisha B’Av for this person. A Zaken (older individual) that has lost strength from fasting and is
not fasting on Tisha B’Av, must eat on Tisha B’Av even if he has no internal
sickness.
2. There was a mahloket
(different views) regarding a woman who recently gave birth and whether or not
she must fast on Tisha B’Av. Everyone agrees that a woman who is still in the
first week after giving birth is exempt from fasting. However, regarding Tisha
B’Av falling in the first 30 days after birth, one view states that she must
fast and according to Rav Ovadia Yosef shlit’a she is exempt from fasting.
