Preparing the clothes before the Nine Days
Question
Is it necessary to wear the ironed and laundered clothes before the Nine Days, and is it sufficient to place them on the floor and step on them (while barefoot)?
Answer
Shalom!
Preparation by wearing has a clear source in the words of the Remo in the laws of mourning.
Preparation by throwing on the floor also has a source in the words of the decisors there.
