Question
I was wondering whether it is permissible to donate blood during the 9 days?
Many thanks in advance,
Answer
Shalom,
Thank you for your question. It is permitted to give blood during the nine days, as it is not considered as dangerous, and because of the great mitzvah involved.
May we merit to see the rebuilding of the Beit HaMikdash speedily in our days.
