Question:
1) Can I read a business article on chol hamoed?
2) Can I use the regular contact lens solution (disinfectant) on chol hamoed?
Thank you very much!
Answer:
- You may read business articles on Chol Hamoed. The reason is because v'daber davar does not apply on chol Hamoed.
- You may put your contact lenses into the disinfectant, even according to the poskim that prohibit it on Shabbos. The reason is because something that is tzorech hamoed is permitted, and you are cleaning them in order to use them and wear them for the moed.
- Have a good Yom Tov
