At nightfall, one should pray Maariv as usual.
One should wash Negel Vasser properly (six times alternately) after Maariv.
The widespread custom is to do Kiddush Levana on the night after Tisha Be’Av. According to Rabbi Chaim Vital, this alludes to the birth of Moshiach ben David which, according to tradition, takes place on Tisha Be’Av.
Some say to postpone Kiddush Levana until Motzoei Shabbat Nachamu.
It is best to also put on leather shoes and eat before Kiddush Levana in order to recite it with full simcha (joy). If by doing so one will miss saying the Kiddush Levana with a minyan, one may say it while still fasting.
One may not eat meat or drink wine until after midday on Wednesday. Other restrictions of the Three Weeks and Nine Days remain in place until that time as well.
For Sefardim none of the restrictions of these days remain except for not eating meat or drinking wine, which remain forbidden Tuesday night.
Our sages teach that whoever mourns for Yerushalayim will merit to see it rebuilt.
May we merit it speedily in our days!
