Question

Is it permissible for a mourner to make Kiddush in the synagogue for the birth of his daughter within thirty days of his mother's passing?

Answer

If it is the first Shabbat after the birth and it is customary in the place to make Kiddush on the first Shabbat after the birth. If not doing so would appear as public mourning, then Kiddush should be made in the synagogue. However, if it is not the first Shabbat or there is no custom in the place to make Kiddush on the first Shabbat after the birth, then Kiddush should not be made.
