Tishah b'Av on a Sunday, Part III

Hello,

Two more rules which are unique to this year's calendar, in which Tishah b'Av is Saturday night and Sunday:

One may not eat or drink, even after the fast is over, until after reciting Havdalah. One uses wine or grape juice for Havdalah.

Havdalah does not involve the introductory “Hineih” paragraph, or the spices or flame. One begins with the blessing over wine/grape juice, and continues with the normal berachah of
“HaMavdil.”

Have a good day,
Mordechai
