The Rebbe strongly encouraged that during the 9 days and up until 15 Menachem Av, especially in a year of Hakhel, there should be Siyumim every night so that all of the negative aspects of this period should be transformed to joy.
The first Siyum in the world was held in Sydney on Thursday night, Rosh Chodesh Menachem Av at the Yeshiva Centre – Chabad NSW HQ, Australia.
The Siyum was made by Rabbi Yosef Feldman and the food was sponsored by Mr. Shmulik Scuri in honor of the Yartzeit of his father, Yaakov Ben Eliyahu and Rabbi Eli Cohen.
Following the refreshments many stayed to watch a video about the second temple.
