The week before [[Tisha BeAv]] is called Shabbat Chazon. Its title is based on the first word of the [[Haftorah]] that is read that week (Yishayhu 1). It is the last of the three Haftorot with messages of rebuke of the prophets of the sins of the Jewish people and the destruction of the Bet Hamikdash that are read during the [[Three Weeks]].

==Taking a Shower before Shabbat Chazon==
#On Friday before Shabbat Chazon some permit someone who always takes a shower on Friday to take a shower before Shabbat.<ref>Rivevot Efraim 4:139 citing Rav Moshe (Rav Eider's Ben Hametzarim p. 13) and Rav Henkin (Approbation of Nechema Yosef)</ref> See
#If Tisha BeAv falls out on Shabbat and is pushed off until Sunday, according to Sephardim, it's proper not to take a hair cut the week prior to Shabbat Chazon. However, in regards to shaving, if one shaves regularly and it's difficult not to shave, one may shave during the week before Shabbat Chazon, especially if one is doing so for Kavod Shabbat. See sources on the [[Nine_Days#Taking_Haircuts_and_Shaving]] page.
==Other Practices==
#It is permissible and recommended to have the same foods and sing the same songs one does every other week on Shabbat Chazon and not detract from its honor because it is the [[Shabbat]] before Tisha BeAv.<ref>[http://halachayomit.co.il/en/Default.aspx?HalachaID=4636&PageIndex=2 halachayomit] citing Chida and Rav Ovadia Yosef (Chazon Ovadia Arba Taniyot p. 155)</ref>
