Ezra's Immersion on the Eve of Tisha B'Av after Midday
Question
For someone who has the custom of performing Ezra's immersion during the Nine Days, can they also immerse on the eve of Tisha B'Av after midday?
Answer
Shalom Rav,
It is permitted.
There are no mourning laws after midday, except for the prohibition against studying Torah, so as not to enter Tisha B'Av with joy.
