Question
In my first year, I forgot to shave my beard before midday. Is it permissible for me to shave after midday on Erev Pesach?
Answer
Hello,
In a pressing situation, there is room to be lenient, according to the authorities who permit in the case of a simple action.
Source
Even though the Mishnah Berurah completely forbids it, the words of the Magen Avraham explain that he permits it in the case of a simple action, and some rely on this in pressing situations and for human dignity.
