Question
Is it permissible to participate in a siyum of a tractate during the Nine Days if you do not know the host of the siyum and are attending solely to permit eating meat?
Answer
Shalom Rav,
The permission to eat meat and drink wine at a siyum meal is granted only to those individuals who would participate in the siyum on other days and eat there, not to other attendees.
