The story · English
Rabbi Yaakov Sinai presents a detailed halachic discussion on the practice of wearing tefillin on Tisha B'Av, the Jewish day of mourning. He explores the traditional custom of Maran, a revered rabbinic authority, regarding whether it is preferable to don tefillin during the morning prayer (Shacharit) or the afternoon prayer (Mincha) on this solemn day. Rabbi Sinai also addresses the question of what one should do if they find themselves in a synagogue where tefillin are not worn on Tisha B'Av. This teaching is part of Rabbi Sinai's daily series "Halachic Order," which delves into current Jewish legal questions. The segment includes a video explanation and is part of ongoing coverage on Jewish law topics.
