Episode Synopsis

Podcast Description: If a burial begins right before sunset but isn’t finished until after, what’s the mourner’s status? Aninus means they’re exempt from davening, while shiva only starts after the burial is complete. But once the casket is covered with earth, many poskim say the mourner may already daven — even before shiva has begun. This episode explores that critical difference.
