Must one complete a taanis chalom (fast undertaken due to a disturbing dream) on Erev Shabbat until tzet hakochavim?
Synopsis
The Mechaber rules one must complete a taanis chalom until tzet hakochavim. Some authorities permit ending it when the congregation leaves the synagogue after Kabbalat Shabbat (the 'yesh omrim' ruling), but later authorities rule stringently in line with the Mechaber, and this is the accepted custom.
