Question:
dear, i live in stuttgart, germany. my boy was born on friday, 7 minutes before shabbat. when is the brit milah, friday or shabbat?
Answer:
Mazal Tov!!!
The time for the brit milah is generally on Friday, as we count the day of birth (Friday) as the first day, even though the birth was just a few minutes before the end of the day. However, just to be sure, you should verify this with the person who will be doing the brit milah (the mohel).
May your son bring you much joy and happiness!!
