#5506 The Zait for the Yahrzait
Question
Dear Rabbi, I’m invited to a wedding the night of my father’s Yahrzeit. Do I need to leave at shekia? (sunset). Thank you.
Answer
Our Rabbonim maintained that indeed you should leave at sunset, as that time carries already many of the needs, mitzvos and prohibitions of the next day.
