Question
How should someone who is an onen during the days of counting the Omer for an entire day behave regarding the counting on that day, and how should they behave in the following days?
Answer
Shalom Rav
On the day he is an onen, he should count without a blessing, because he is prohibited from performing mitzvot, but he should count so as not to lose the ability to count the remaining days with a blessing. On the other days, he should count with a blessing.
