we're allowed<BR>to fast on Shabbos for 9 Av, especially when Shabbos is docheh
9 Av? Since<BR>Bein Hashmashot is a safeik, why don't we see safeik d'oraita
l'chumrah in<BR>the case of oneg Shabbos, and safeik d'rabbanan l'hakeil in the
case of<BR>Tisha B'av?<<<BR><BR>>>>>><BR>Once you have
eaten anything that day, you are no longer fasting. My husband
always drinks some water Shabbos morning before going to shul, in
case he doesn't get around to kiddush before chatzos, so that he won't be guilty
of "fasting" on Shabbos.</FONT></DIV><FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent"

is already full -- do you call that fasting?! But even if you were
actually hungry, it would not be called "fasting" if you had eaten earlier that
day.</DIV>
