Shabbos Tisha Bav 2012
The Seudos of Shabbos can be eaten as on a regular Shabbos with no restraints or restrictions. This includes dancing as usual.
1. Although one normally should not study Torah on erev Tisha B'Av after Chatzos (except for Torah portions permitted on Tisha B'Av itself) when erev Tisha B'Av falls on Shabbos one should fulfill his regular Shabbos Torah study,however,it is customary not to learn Pirkei Avos after Chatzos. Shulchan Aruch w/Mishnah Berurah 553:2
2. The usual Seudah Mafsekes is replaced with a regular Seudah Shlishis of Shabbos at which one may eat meat and drink wine and eat any foods one desires. One may eat the meal with the family at one table,however,one should not invite guests unless one regularly has guests for Seudah Shlishis. One may conclude the meal with a Zimun as always. One must be careful to conclude the meal before sunset/Sh'kiah. One should not say that one is eating to have strength for the fast. One may sing zemiros. Shulchan Aruch w/Mishnah Berurah 552:10,Shmiras Shabbos Kehilchasa 28:77,Igros Moshe 4:112
3. If one completed the 3 rd seudah before sunset and said Birchas Hamazon one may eat and drink until sunset without making any t'nai (condition). Sha'ar Hatziyun 553:7
4. One may sit on a chair until nightfall/Tzei Hakochavim. Shmiras Shabbos Kehilchasa 62:88
5. No preparations for Tisha B'Av may be made on Shabbos. One may not bring Tisha B'Av shoes or Kinos to shul on Shabbos even if there is an eruv. Therefore,it is advisable that one should bring these items to shul before Shabbos. Shmiras Shabbos Kehilchasa 28:77
6. One is permitted to take a time release or Tzom Kal on shabbos which help them fast. Since it is not for Refuah or hachanah its only preventive medicine. However its better if one can mix it with food before shabbos and eat it in that way on Shabbos.
7) A woman may go to the mikvah Friday night.
8) One should not take Shabbos walks on Shabbos Tisha Bav.
9) After Shabbos, we say Hamavdil Bain Kodesh L’Chol, and we go to Maariv in our Shabbos clothing. After Borchu, we change to Tisha V’Av shoes. If a shul Davens Maariv before Tzais, you should not change shoes then, but wait until after Tzais to do so.
10) Because one may not prepare on Shabbos for Chol, the shoes should be placed in Shul before Shabbos. Similarly, one may not bring a Kinos to Shul before Shabbos is over.
11.) If possible, one should change to weekday clothing before saying Kinos.
12) After Davening Motzoi Shabbos, but before Eichah, we make Baorei M’Orei Ha”Eish on a Havdalah candle, like on a regular Motzoi Shabbos. Women who stay home should make the Bracha on the double candle at home. No other parts of Havdalah are performed at that time. After Tisha b’Av, Havdalah is made on wine, without Besamim. The person making Havdalah may drink the wine himself.
13. A Choleh Or kattan or a women who will not be fasting must make Havdalah on a Kos before they eat. and should only make havdalah right before they are ready to eat. Since havdala is made on wine which you can not drink on Tisha Bav the poskim rule that you may make on Grape Juice and give it to a Katan to drink. If there is no Katan you may make havdala on coffe , Tea or 100%Orange juice. At last resort one may drink grape juice on their own. (Orchos Rabbeinu)
HAVDALAH on Motzei Tisha B'av Nidcha
14) On Motzoi Tisha B’Av Nidcheh, one makes havdala and is permissible to drink the cup of wine. We do not make a bracha on besamim or a Ner. We only make a borei pri Hagafen and say Hamavdil.
15) It is permitted to listen to music on Motzei Tisha Bav nidcha and do laundry, but we do noto drink wine or eat meat until the morning.
