Question:
Am I allowed to smoke week during the nine days? I know you can’t drink wine but would that apply to weed? Is there a difference between recreational and medicinal for mental health
Answer:
Hello,
Smoking weed during the nine days, has the same halacha is the rest of the year. I can’t say that it is permitted, because it is detrimental to one’s health, but it isn’t worse in the nine days.
Best wishes
