Q. Is a celebration of a seventy year birthday a Seudas Mitzva that one should attend when invited?
A. Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that it is a Seudas Hodayah or a meal of thanksgiving that is given to recognize the good that Hashem has granted or Hakoras HaTov, and is therefore a Seudas Mitzva.
Rabbi A. Bartfeld as advised by Horav Shlomo Miller, Horav Dovid Pam and Horav Aharon Miller Shlit’a.
