Is Sending Greeting Cards for Rosh Hashanah to a Mourner Permitted?
Answer
A mourner does not send letters to friends, and therefore does not send greeting for the new year, except for cases in which he must placate his fellow man, in which case the obligation of peace and repentance takes precedence over mourning customs
Answer
Jewish law does not forbid selling a house during the mourning year, but the custom in some communities is to refrain from doing this. Even in these communities, however, if there is an opportunity to sell and buy something cheaply, leniency is practiced. Someone who does not have this custom is permitted to sell a house even without a special business opportunity
Answer
It should be avoided, especially if the gifts particularly cause happiness..
Answer
