Birthday party during the 9 days

Question:

It’s my husband b-day in the 9 days my I buy a present and what kind of b-day party my I do?

Answer:

Mazal Tov. May you and your husband live ad meah v’esrim.

Regarding your husband’s birthday, we should not make birthday parties during the nine days, as it is not a time for parties. You can ask you husband for a yearly rain check, on the birthday party, and IY”H next year you will be able to celebrate it with moshiach tzidkaynu.

Regarding giving him a birthday present, please see the following post https://dinonline.org/2017/07/18/present-during-the-3-weeks/
