==Music during three weeks== | |||
# One is allowed to play and listen to music at a wedding. <Ref> Tosfot (Gittin 7a D”H Zimra) writes that for a Tzorech Mitzvah such as to make the Chatan and Kallah happy, one may lechatchila play songs with musical instruments. This is brought by many rishonim including Meiri, Chiddushei HaRan, Tosfot HaRosh, Smag, Hagot Mordechai, Hagot Maimon (Taniot 5) and ruled into Halacha by Rama 560:3, and even Sephardic achronim including Sh”t Yachave Daat 1:45. </ref> | |||
# One is allowed to listen to music at a Sheva Brachot meal during the three weeks. <Ref> Torat HaMoadim 5:4 writes that a simcha of Sheva Brachot would permit music during the three weeks. (It seems that Sh”t Igrot Moshe 166 and Sh”t Yechave Daat 1:45 would agree.) However, Rav Vosner in Sh”t Shevet HaLevi 3:157 writes explicitly that for a simcha of Sheva Brachot music and dancing are forbidden. </ref> | |||
# One is allowed to dance at a seudah of Sheva Brachot. <Ref> Sh”t Mishna Halachot 6:109 permits dancing at a Sheva Brachot during the three weeks. Sh”t Mishna Halachot quotes that Rav Moshe Feinstein also permitted, while Rabbi Tzvi Mieslish forbad. (see Sh”t Igrot Moshe E”H 1:97.) Sh”t Avnei Yishfa 1:112 and Chazon Ovadyah (Taniot pg 153) agree with Mishna Halachot to allow dancing. However, Rav Vosner in Sh”t Shevet HaLevi 3:157 writes explicitly that for a simcha of Sheva Brachot music and dancing are forbidden. </ref> | |||
# The minhag is to be lenient regarding playing and listening to music during Chol HaMoed for simchat HaChag. <Ref>Sh”t Mishna Halachot 8:188 leaves it in a tzarich iyun. Az nidabru 10 :23:2 says it’s clearly permissible as does Sh”T Yachave Daat 1:45. </ref> | |||
radio- sharim metsuyim behalacha 122:4 can’t be exact to turn it off for the songs- Bitul berov, sh”t shevet halevi 6:69 says that the s”mbh is strange and it’s absolutely forbidden. | |||
# One is allowed to play and listen to music at a meal of Brit Milah during the three weeks. <ref> In general, Rama (551:3) permits music for a dvar mitzvah like a wedding. However, the Yavetz in his siddur (Amudei Shesh; quoted by Yafeh Lelev 560:7) writes that a simcha of a Brit Milah there should be no music. Eliyah Rabba 551:26 writes that the minhag is like the Yavetz. Regarding the three weeks Chida in Sh”t Chaim Shal 1:21 writes that the (Sephardic) minhag is to be lenient to have music at a meal of a Brit Milah. Ikrei HaDaat (Y”D 36:23), Sh”t Maaseh Avraham (Y”D 48), Moed Kol Chai (10:20), Ot Chaim VeShalom (the Munchatch Rebbe; 265:29), Torat HaMoadim 5:4, and Sh”t Yachave Daat 1:45 write that minhag is to lenient by the meal of a Brit Milah. (It seems that Shirei Knesset HaGedolah 551:33 who’s strict regarding the party for a Milah at night, but would agree concerning the meal right after the Milah. Additionally, it seems Sh”t Igrot Moshe 1:166 would agree as he even discusses a tzedaka banquet regarding music the rest of the year.) </ref> | |||
# Some permit music at a meal for a Siyum of a Gemara. <Ref> Sh”t Yachave Daat 1:45 writes that music is permited for a seudat mitzvah including a siyum. Torat HaMoadim 5:4 extends this to even during the three weeks. </ref> | |||
# Some permit music at a meal for a Pidyon HaBen. <Ref> Sh”t Yachave Daat 1:45 permits music at a suedat mitzvah such as a Pidyon HaBen. Torat HaMoadim 5:4 extends this to even during the three weeks. </ref> | |||
# Some permit music at a meal for a Pidyon HaBen. <Ref> Torat HaMoadim 5:4 permits music at a simchat Bar Mitzvah during the three weeks. </ref> | |||
# One should be strict not to play music at a tzedaka banquet during the three weeks. <Ref> Sh”t Igrot Moshe O”C 166 permits all types of festivities of mitzvah and says that perhaps even a tzadeka banquet perhaps can be included. However, the Sh”t Igrot Moshe concludes that during the three weeks we are more strict regarding music and therefore there is almost nothing to rely on to play music at a tzedaka banquet. </ref> | |||
So too Sh”t Yachave Daat 1:45 includes Brit Milah, Pidyon HaBen, Siyum, Sueda of Purim, and simcha on Chol HaMoed. (j) (i) sheva Brachot shevat halevi 3:157 | |||
# It is permissible and a mitzvah to learn Torah with a tune and niggun even during the three weeks. <Ref> Sh”t Mishna Halachot 6:107, Sh”t Yachave Daat 6:34, Torat HaMoadim 5:2, Sedei Chemed (Peat Sadeh, Ben HaMetsarim 1:10), </ref> | |||
