Teacher - Music During the Year of Mourning
Question
Hello and blessings, I am in the year of mourning for my mother. I serve as a teacher in a cheder, and from time to time, when there is a relevant song, I play it for the children. Also, in general, I play songs for the children in class during relaxation times and similar occasions. Can I continue doing this?
Answer
Hello and blessings
It is permitted. Since it is not for enjoyment, but for your work.
