Question
A mourner who is accustomed to studying Daf Yomi every day throughout the year, can he continue studying during the seven days of mourning to avoid interrupting his progress?
Answer
On weekdays during the seven days of mourning, he should not study the Daf Yomi. However, on Shabbat, if he participates in a small class and his absence would be noticeable, he may attend the class. But if his absence would not be noticeable, he should not study Daf Yomi until after the seven days, and one who is lenient on Shabbat even in private has what to rely on.
