# 1790 If You Can Feed Them Join Them
Question
Can women, family or friends, invited to a yohrtzait siyum (see question above), take also part in the siyum and eat meat during the 9 days, even if they are not helping to set up?
Answer
Nitei Gavriel (Bein Hametzorim 1: 41: 2, Piskei Teshuvos 551: 38: n. 201, quoting R’ Sh. Z. Auerrbach zt’l) permit women related to the siyum, to partake in the fleishig seuda.
Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is similar.
