[Avodah] why are we more lenient after chatzos on Tbav

[Rich, Joel via Avodah]

There are several halachos that the minhag is to be more lenient after
chatzos on Tbav

Business, sitting on regular chairs, talis and tephillin etc

Why?

What changed in the afternoon?

Mordechai Cohen


>>>>

The mood of despair lightens in the afternoon because we are expecting the imminent arrival of Moshiach.  I have read somewhere that some people (Sefardim maybe?) have a custom to sweep the floor and tidy up the house on Tisha B'Av afternoon in anticipation of Moshiach's arrival.
