Interesting Psak: No Tachanun
INN brings an interesting psak from Rav Dovid Chai HaCohen, rav of the Orot Hotorah community in Bat Yam and leading student of Rav Tzvi Yehuda Kook, as a result of yesterday's elections.
Rav Doci Chai HaCohen paskened that tachanun should not be said today, Wednesday, due to the great joy resulting in the results of the elections. Yesterday the rav had people come to daven, say slichos, blow shofar and pray for the success of the national camp in the elections. After the results became clear, the rav declared today to be a Day of Praise and Gratitude.
UPDATE:
And now Kikar is bringing the psak of Rav Meir Mazuz to not say tachanun today at mincha to recognize the joy of the electoral victory.
