Two questions please:
1) What happens on the 5th of Iyar? Do we say kinot? Zahavasdad asked about it and so far we’re all mums the word.
2) What are Kinot?
Thank you π
May 1, 2017 8:16 pm at 8:16 pm #1267448LightbriteParticipantWait rewind please… Tell me if I got it:
Kinot are said during mourning on Tisha B’Av.
And the 5th of Iyar is Yom Ha’Atzmaut. Anyone who would be mourning the foundation of the State of Israel may be saying Kinot on this day as well.
? Thanks

Also – I think it’s a joke. I don’t think there are too many people (if any) who literally say Kinos on the 5th of Iyar. If there are a few people who do, I would imagine they are not people who post in the Coffee Room ( um… actually, maybe they are… in any case, if it happens, I think it’s rare.)

Gosh the first thing that I did when I read zahavasdad’s post was text a friend about it.
My friend had no clue what I was talking about, and asked me if I thought that tomorrow’s Tisha B’Av. Lol, kinda embarrassing. Oh well π

Note this cant happen anymore since I think they pushed off the holiday? Can someone confirm?

What’s BHB?
May 2, 2017 12:21 pm at 12:21 pm #1267825cantthinkoffancyusernameParticipantB – yom beis Monday
H – yom hey Thursday
B – yom beis MondayIt is read Behab. It is starts the first Monday after Pesach to do tshuva for over any averios committed by mistake over Yom Tov. (overindulgence of tayvos) I believe some people fast on those day.
May 5, 2017 2:25 pm at 2:25 pm #1270416Student of TorahParticipantIt’s actually the first Monday, Thursday, Monday after rosh chodesh iyar/cheshvan.
