"Neither shall he be charged with any business"—Deuteronomy 24:5.
It is forbidden to conscript a newly-married groom, for the first year following his marriage, for military or civic duties. Rather, he must be absolved from all duties that would cause him to be absent from his home.
This prohibition is directed to those responsible for conscription as well as the groom himself—he may not journey away from his home for an entire year.
