MITZVOT

The Chinuch does not count any mitzvot in Ha'azinu; Rambam counts 1 - YAYIN NESECH. This is the only mitzva on Rambam's whole list of 613 mitzvot that the Chinuch does not count.

Note: Haazinu is sometimes read before Yom Kippur (60% of the time), i.e. on Shabbat Shuva, or on the Shabbat between Yom Kippur and Sukkot, when there is one (39%) Which there is this year.
