Question
We usually refrain from cutting nails on Rosh Chodesh according to the testament of Rabbi Yehuda HaChasid. I planned during the day to find time at night to cut my nails, and now I remember that today is Rosh Chodesh and the nails are long and bothersome. Is it permissible to be lenient and cut them?
Answer
Shalom Rav
It is not permissible to be lenient. Cut them after Shabbat.
