Halachot and Customs
Immersing Utensils During the Week of Tisha B'Av
Question
Hello,
I have new utensils, and I wanted to ask if I may immerse them during these days?
And may I also use them after immersion, or should I wait until after Tisha B'Av?
Thank you very much!
Answer
Good week,
You may immerse the utensils now and use them immediately.
Sources: According to what is brought in the book Likkutei Yosher (Part Orach Chaim, page 107, s.v. v'haya) in the name of his teacher, the author of Terumat HaDeshen, who permitted purchasing new utensils such as spoons and bowls during the Nine Days.
Best regards,
Hillel Meirs
