Tanit Ester: Difference between revisions

# Someone who has some small illness but is in a lot of pain may eat on Tanit Ester, but should make the fast another day.<Ref> Darkei Moshe 686:1 quotes the Aguddah who says that someone who has an eye ache may eat on Tanit Ester but has to make it up another time. The Rama 686:2 rules that a Choleh Shein Bo Sakana or someone with an eye ache who is in great pain may eat on Tanit Ester but should make it up another day. Hilchot Chag BeChag (p. 29) generalizes this to say that anyone with a small illness who is great pain may eat but should make it up afterwards. The Aruch HaShulchan 686:4 writes that the Rama didn’t need to mention a Choleh Shein Bo Sakana except for those who held that Tanit Ester is MeDivrei Kabbalah, however, according to those who say it only a minhag, its obvious that a Choleh Shein Bo Sakana is exempt as he is even exempt from Tisha BeAv. Chazon Ovadya (p. 39) adds that anyone who has to eat on the doctor’s orders doesn’t have to make it up afterwards. </ref>
