Q. If one has Yohrzait for his father on Assarah Beteves, and he usually makes a Siyum on that day before Maariv and then offers a Kiddush after Maariv for breaking the fast. What should he do this year when most people after Kabbolas Shabbos go home and eat the Shabbos meal there?
A. Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a recommends that he should do the Siyum and offer the Kiddush or Seuda on Thursday night instead, since after all that is already the Yohrzait day.
Besides it now includes also ‘Zerizim Makdimim” in keeping Mitzvos. Namely complying earlier is usually better.
Rabbi A. Bartfeld as revised by Horav Dovid Pam, Horav Aharon Miller and Horav Chanoch Ehrentreu Shlit’a
