Question
If someone's brother passed away during Chol HaMoed, is it permitted to work in a case of loss during these days?
Answer
He is permitted to work in any case of loss that is allowed during Chol HaMoed. Work for the needs of the festival that is not a case of loss can be done by others in their homes or discreetly in his home. (Household tasks such as cooking, baking, and cleaning the house are not considered work in terms of mourning)
