Participation of a Mourning Educator in a Celebration
Question
Hello,
I have a yahrzeit for my father tomorrow, which is Rosh Chodesh Tevet.
I work as an educator in a Talmud Torah. They want to have a musical Hallel and Rosh Chodesh songs. Am I allowed to participate and play with my students?
Wishing you a good month and a happy Hanukkah,
Yehuda
Answer
Hello and happy Hanukkah
An educator is permitted to participate, as he is only fulfilling his duty.
