- Q. Kavod HaRav. There are a number of Hosafos (additions) that are recited every day after davening Shacharit. For example, Shesh Zechiros, Parshas HaTeshuva, etc... Can they be recited on Tisha Be'Av as well, when Torah learning is prohibited? Thank you.
A. Horav Yaakov Hirschman Shlit'a opinion is that when they are recited after davening as it usually is, it is permitted.
The reason being that since it is read as a part of the Tefila, that as is includes many pesukim and mizmorim, that are recited for praise or for asking Hashem and not for the purpose of learning of Torah, so therefore they are permited.
Rabbi A. Bartfeld as revised by Horav Yaakov Hirschman, Horav Dovid Pam, Horav Aharon Miller, Horav Chanoch Ehrentreu and Horav Kalman Ochs Shlit’a.
