Tisha B'av: Good News

Question

Hi are you allowed to share good news on tisha bav like if someone had a baby today?

Answer

Shalom!

Thank you for your question.

It is best to only share such good news after “chatzot” – after midday- on Tisha B’av if possible. This is because we should be focusing only on the mourning of Temple and Jerusalem until then.
