Kitzur Shulchan Aruch, Siman 122 Part 1/2

AI summary (may contain mistakes)

The 21 days of the three weeks and the 21 days of the Yomim Noraim make 42 days, one process of growth and not bad against good. The Kitzur's halachos of the three weeks and the nine days follow: tikkun chatzos, weddings, music, meat and wine, Shehecheyanu, haircuts and nails, and the haftaros of the three Shabbosos. Hashem hides now because He is right there, and we wait for the Beis HaMikdash like a woman longing to be married.

Key points

• The Kitzur bars weddings now, yet from Rosh Chodesh allows an engagement without a seudah, sweets served.
• The Kitzur forbids nail cutting only in Tisha B'Av's week, allowing it for mikvah or a mohel.
