Question
On Shabbat Rosh Chodesh, when mourners in shiva pray at home, do they recite Hallel?
Answer
On Shabbat, Hallel is recited even in the house of mourning, because not reciting it would be considered public mourning.
Source
Mishnah Berurah, Siman 131, S"K 20: "Hallel is not recited in the house of mourning. On Rosh Chodesh, when praying in the house of mourning, even if one goes home afterward, it is not necessary to recite it. On Chanukah, when completing the Hallel, it must be recited afterward at home. But on Shabbat that falls on Rosh Chodesh, or if one buried the deceased on a festival, even if praying in the house of mourning, Hallel is recited because there is no mourning."
