One Halakhah Closer to Becoming an Eshet Hayil

BS''D
24/25 Tamuz 5772

IV. Seudat Hamafseket

1. The last meal before the fast, when taking place on a weekday, should be plain, comprised of bread and water with, at most, one cooked dish. If the dish preparation normally comprises more than one item, such as eggs and tomatoes, it is acceptable. Fish is too luxurious for this meal. Uncooked vegetables and tea or coffee are permitted to be added to this meal. For this meal it is customary to choose an item that symbolizes mourning, such as a hard-boiled egg or lentils.


Shavua Tov uMevorakh!
