Question
Can a woman who postponed her immersion immerse on the night of Shabbat even if there is no reason for postponing her immersion? What is the ruling regarding after Shabbat? When should she perform the preparation and other preparations? Is there a difference between Sephardic and Ashkenazi women? I would appreciate an explanation. Thank you very much.
Answer
Shalom and blessings
According to the instructions of the Gaon, Rabbi A. Fried, shlita: it is permitted to immerse both on the night of Shabbat and after Shabbat.
This ruling applies to both Ashkenazi and Sephardic women.
Regarding the time of preparation for immersion after Shabbat, according to Ashkenazi custom, the preparations are done on Friday. [Except for light washing, slight combing, and inspection after Shabbat]. According to Sephardic custom, the preparations are done after Shabbat.
