#4912 When Should a Present be Present?
Q. Is it better to give the needed to be given simcha presents, like for a bar mitzva or a wedding on Purim to increase the simcha that is after all a mitzvah on that day?

A. Our Rabbonim Shlit’a agreed that there is no real cause or reason to give the presents mentioned during Purim, since the reason for the simcha and joy of Purim is different and reflects to the teachings that are mentioned in the Megilah and corresponding Talmud and meforshim.

Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is similar.

Rabbi A. Bartfeld as revised by Horav Dovid Pam, Horav Aharon Miller, Horav Chanoch Ehrentreu Shlit’a and Horav Kalman Ochs Shlit’a.
