<\/a><\/a><\/a>Yom Kippur Night<\/h2>\n

Kol Nidrei<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. It is customary to don a tallit before Kol Nidrei<\/em>. If it is still daytime, one should recite a berachah<\/em> when donning the tallit.[1]<\/a><\/li>\n
  2. It is preferable to recite Kol Nidrei<\/em> before shkiyah<\/em>. If one sees that most of the congregation has not yet arrived, it is better to wait for them to come rather than recite Kol Nidrei<\/em> before shkiyah<\/em>.[2]<\/a><\/li>\n
  3. Before Kol Nidrei<\/em>, many congregations have a custom to sell the kibbud<\/em> of petichat hahechal<\/em> and other honors that pertain to the tefillot<\/em> of Yom Kippur. This custom is certainly permitted, and one should try to buy these honors, even if they are expensive, especially if the money will go to people who study Torah.[3]<\/a><\/li>\n
  4. Some people have the custom to take out only one sefer Torah<\/em> for Kol Kidrei<\/em>. Some communities take out three sifrei Torah<\/em>, some take out seven or ten, and others take out all of the sifrei Torah<\/em> that they have.[4]<\/a> One can still recite Kol Nidrei<\/em> even if there are no sifrei Torah<\/em>[5]<\/a><\/li>\n
  5. One should not use a sefer Torah that is pasul <\/em>for Kol Nidrei<\/em>.[6]<\/a><\/li>\n
  6. The one who holds the sefer Torah<\/em> of Kol Nidrei<\/em> merits forgiveness for several sins.[7]<\/a><\/li>\n
  7. One should put both hands on the sefer Torah<\/em> and kiss it when it passes by after reciting Kol Nidrei<\/em>. There are several Kabbalistic reasons for doing so.[8]<\/a><\/li>\n
  8. Before Kol Nidrei<\/em>, one should verbally express regret for any sins that he did. This can also be accomplished by reciting the piyyut of Lecha Eli<\/em>.[9]<\/a><\/li>\n
  9. Each person should recite Kol Nidrei<\/em> along with the chazzan.[10]<\/a><\/li>\n
  10. Some congregations have the custom that the rabbi recites the berachah<\/em> of Shehecheyanu<\/em> for the congregation. In such a case, one should not answer baruch Hu u\u2019baruch Shemo<\/em> when listening to the berachah<\/em>. However, some congregations have the custom that everyone present recites his own Shehecheyanu<\/em> because the one reciting it out loud may not know to have the congregation in mind when reciting the berachah<\/em>.[11]<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Crying<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. On Yom Kippur, one should try to cry while praying. If one cannot bring himself to cry, he should try to pray with a tone of crying and anguish.[12]<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Kabbalat Shabbat<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. When Yom Kippur is on Shabbat, the regular Kabbalat Shabbat<\/em> is skipped, and only Mizmor shir leyom haShabbat<\/em> is recited.[13]<\/a><\/li>\n
      2. Even when Yom Kippur is on Shabbat, VeHu Rachum<\/em> is recited.[14]<\/a><\/li>\n
      3. If Yom Kippur is on Shabbat, one should have in mind that he is also fulfilling his obligation of reciting Kiddush when reciting Mekadesh HaShabbat <\/em>while praying the Amidah<\/em>. [15]<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Baruch Shem Kevod<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

          \n
        1. During keriat Shema<\/em>, the verse Baruch Shem kevod malchuto le\u2019olam va\u2019ed<\/em> is recited out loud.[16]<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          People standing next to the chazzan<\/strong><\/p>\n

            \n
          1. It is customary for two people stand next to the chazzan when Selichot<\/em> are recited during the tefillot<\/em> throughout Yom Kippur.[17]<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            After the prayers<\/strong><\/p>\n

              \n
            1. After completing the prayers on Yom Kippur night, one should try to recite Tehillim<\/em> until going to sleep.[18]<\/a><\/li>\n
            2. It is praiseworthy to learn the Mishnayot<\/em> of Masechet Yoma<\/em>.[19]<\/a><\/li>\n
            3. One should not remain awake too late since it is better to have strength for praying rather than stay up learning.[20]<\/a><\/li>\n
            4. Keriat Shema Al HaMittah<\/em> is recited as usual, but one skips tachanun<\/em> since one already recited tachanun when praying Arvit<\/em>.[21]<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              <\/a><\/a><\/a>Shacharit<\/h2>\n
                \n
              1. One should not wake up too early since he might not be able to concentrate during the tefillah<\/em>.[22]<\/a><\/li>\n
              2. The chazzan should try to minimize the amount of singing when praying Shacharit<\/em> so that Mussaf<\/em> should be prayed before the seventh hour of the day.[23]<\/a><\/li>\n
              3. During the chazarat hashatz<\/em>, the chazzan recites the vidduy<\/em> According to Sephardic custom, there is no obligation to recite the vidduy<\/em> along with the chazzan, but if one does, he is obligated to stand while doing so.[24]<\/a><\/li>\n
              4. The kohanim<\/em> should remove their shoes before reciting Birkat Kohanim<\/em> even though they are not wearing leather shoes.[25]<\/a><\/li>\n
              5. After Chazarat HaShatz<\/em>, Avinu Malkenu<\/em> is recited, even when Yom Kippur is on Shabbat.[26]<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                <\/a><\/a><\/a>Keriat HaTorah<\/h2>\n
                  \n
                1. One who is sick and must eat on Yom Kippur may still receive an aliyah<\/em>.[27]<\/a><\/li>\n
                2. Even though it is permissible to add extra aliyot<\/em>, it preferable to refrain from doing so, in order to save time and pray Mussaf<\/em> before the seventh hour.[28]<\/a><\/li>\n
                3. If there is a brit milah on Yom Kippur, it should be performed after keriat haTorah<\/em> and before Mussaf<\/em>.[29]<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                  <\/a><\/a><\/a>Mussaf<\/h2>\n
                    \n
                  1. During the chazarah<\/em> of Mussaf<\/em>, there is a custom to kneel on the floor and bow when reciting shehayu korim u\u2019mishtachavim<\/em>\u2026 One may not kneel and bow on a stone floor, and should place a carpet, towel, or even one\u2019s tallit between one\u2019s knees and face and the floor when bowing.[30]<\/a><\/li>\n
                  2. If one finishes praying Mussaf<\/em> and needs to sit to rest, he may do so even if there is someone praying behind him, especially if the person praying behind him is covering his face with his tallit. Similarly, one may take three steps back to the side if there is someone praying directly behind him, so that he may recite oseh<\/em> hashalom<\/em> and sit down.[31]<\/a><\/li>\n
                  3. If there is time, after completing Mussaf<\/em>, one should learn until Minchah<\/em>. It is especially praiseworthy to learn about the Tanna Rabbi Akiva, who was killed on Yom Kippur, and also read the prophesy of Yechezkel (chapters 40-43) about the third Bet HaMikdash.[32]<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                    <\/a><\/a><\/a>Minchah<\/h2>\n
                      \n
                    1. If one begins praying Minchah<\/em> more than half an hour after praying Mussaf<\/em>, he should recite a berachah<\/em> when putting on his tallit if he removed it after praying Mussaf<\/em>.[33]<\/a><\/li>\n
                    2. While many Sephardim have the custom to recite Tzidkatecha<\/em> when Yom Kippur is on Shabbat, some have the custom to omit it.[34]<\/a><\/li>\n
                    3. Even though a kohen<\/em> should preferably not read haftarat Yonah<\/em>, if he already bought the aliyah<\/em> or if there is no one else able to read it, he may read it as long as the gabbai<\/em> specifies that he is called to the Torah even though he is a kohen<\/em>.[35]<\/a><\/li>\n
                    4. One may recite Kaddish after reading the haftarah in Minchah<\/em>.[36]<\/a><\/li>\n
                    5. Kohanim<\/em> do not recite Birkat Kohanim<\/em> during Minchah<\/em>. If a kohen<\/em> accidentally went up to recite Birkat Kohanim<\/em>, he should not step down, and should recite it. However, all the other kohanim<\/em> present should leave during its recitation.[37]<\/a><\/li>\n
                    6. If there is only a minimal amount of time remaining before shkiyah<\/em> and it is possible that the minyan will be unable to pray Ne\u2019ilah<\/em> at its proper time, then the minyan may skip Avinu Malkenu<\/em> during Minchah<\/em> in order to save time.[38]<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                      <\/a><\/a><\/a>Ne\u2019ilah<\/h2>\n
                        \n
                      1. The time to pray Ne\u2019ilah<\/em> is about half an hour before shkiyah<\/em>, not before then. Therefore, the chazzan should try to recite the Chazarat HaShatz<\/em> a little faster than usual so that Birkat Kohanim<\/em> may be recited before shkiyah<\/em>. If the chazzan was unable to reach Birkat Kohanim<\/em> until after shkiyah<\/em>, it may be recited throughout ben hashmashot<\/em>. However, Birkat Kohanim<\/em> should not be recited after ben hashmashot<\/em>.[39]<\/a><\/li>\n
                      2. It is customary to open the aron kodesh<\/em> during Ne\u2019ilah<\/em>.[40]<\/a><\/li>\n
                      3. After Ne\u2019ilah<\/em>, Selichot<\/em> should be extended for about twenty minutes after shkiyah<\/em> so that one may blow the shofar and the people will not go home and eat before the fast has ended.[41]<\/a><\/li>\n
                      4. If one accidentally recited katvenu<\/em> instead of chatmenu<\/em>, he does not have to go back.[42]<\/a><\/li>\n
                      5. If one did not pray Ne\u2019ilah<\/em>, he may not pray Arvit<\/em> twice to make up for the missing Ne\u2019ilah<\/em>.[43]<\/a><\/li>\n
                      6. When Ne\u2019ilah<\/em> is completed, it is customary to blow the shofar. Some congregations have the custom only to blow \u05ea\u05e9\u05e8”\u05ea, and some have the custom to blow \u05ea\u05e9\u05e8”\u05ea, \u05ea\u05e9”\u05ea, \u05ea\u05e8”\u05ea. At the end of Kaddish, a teruah gedolah<\/em> is blown.[44]<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                        <\/a><\/a><\/a>Motzaei Yom Kippur<\/h2>\n
                          \n
                        1. Before praying Arvit<\/em>, some people have the custom to remove their tallit, and some have the custom to wear it without it covering their heads.[45]<\/a><\/li>\n
                        2. Arvit<\/em> should be prayed slowly and patiently so that it should not appear as if one just wants to end the fast.[46]<\/a><\/li>\n
                        3. If one accidentally recited haMelech haKadosh<\/em>, he should go back and repeat Shemoneh Esrei<\/em> with a stipulation that if he is obligated to pray, he is fulfilling his obligation, and if he is not obligated, then his prayer should be a tefillah nedavah<\/em>.[47]<\/a><\/li>\n
                        4. During Arvit<\/em>, one must add Ata Chonantanu<\/em> in the berachah<\/em> of Chonen HaDaat<\/em>.[48]<\/a><\/li>\n
                        5. After Yom Kippur, it is a mitzvah to wait a few extra minutes in order to add to the fast.[49]<\/a> Preferably, one should wait seventy-two minutes after shkiyah<\/em> in accordance with the opinion of Rabbenu Tam. However, a woman who is pregnant or nursing or an ill person does not need to be stringent, and may eat even a minute after twenty minutes after shkiyah<\/em>.[50]<\/a><\/li>\n
                        6. Even if one has not yet recited Havdalah, he may drink water if he is thirsty.[51]<\/a><\/li>\n
                        7. One does not recite the blessing on besamim<\/em> during Havdalah on motzaei<\/em> Yom Kippur<\/em>.[52]<\/a> However, if one can, he should smell besamim<\/em> after reciting Havdalah.[53]<\/a><\/li>\n
                        8. One may only recite the berachah<\/em> on a fire if it was burning throughout Yom Kippur, and not on a fire that was lit on motzaei<\/em> Yom Kippur<\/em>.[54]<\/a> However, if Yom Kippur is on Shabbat, one may recite a berachah<\/em> on a fire that was lit on motzaei<\/em> Yom Kippur<\/em>.[55]<\/a><\/li>\n
                        9. A woman may recite Havdalah so that she may eat even if her husband is still praying Arvit<\/em>.[56]<\/a><\/li>\n
                        10. Some people have the custom to recite Birkat HaLevanah<\/em> before Yom Kippur, and some have the custom to recite it afterward. Each congregation should follow its custom.[57]<\/a><\/li>\n
                        11. On motzaei<\/em> Yom Kippur<\/em>, one should eat and rejoice, since it is like a Yom Tov<\/em>.[58]<\/a><\/li>\n
                        12. From the day after Yom Kippur until the second of Cheshvan, Tachanun<\/em> is omitted.[59]<\/a><\/li>\n
                        13. On the day after Yom Kippur, one should be particular to rise early for Shacharit<\/em>.[60]<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                          [1]<\/a>. The Radvaz<\/em> 4:244 explains that the reason for donning a tallit is to add to the feeling of awe and respect for Yom Kippur. This custom is also brought in the Bet Yosef<\/em>, siman<\/em> 18. See also Chazon Ovadia<\/em>, Yamim Nora\u2019im<\/em>, p. 261 and Ohr LeTzion<\/em>, vol. 4, 16:1, which state that if one dons the tallit during the day, he should recite a berachah<\/em>. This is unlike the opinion of Rabbi Chayim Palagi in Moed LeChol Chai <\/em>17:3 and Ruach Chayim<\/em> 18:1, who writes that one may not recite a blessing on the tallit even when donning it during the day. See also Yabia Omer<\/em>, vol. 10, 54:1; Torat<\/em> HaMoadim<\/em>, Yamim Nora\u2019im<\/em>, p. 273; and Yalkut Yosef<\/em>, Yamim Nora\u2019im<\/em>, p. 770 for further insight. See also Chazon Ovadia<\/em>, Yamim Nora\u2019im<\/em>, p. 262, the end of footnote 1 and Yalkut Yosef<\/em>, Yamim Nora\u2019im<\/em>, p. 771, which add that one may even recite a berachah<\/em> on the tallit if one puts it on during ben hashmashot<\/em>.<\/p>\n

                          [2]<\/a> Moed LeChol Chai<\/em> 19:12; Kadosh BeTzion<\/em>, p. 219.<\/p>\n

                          [3]<\/a>. See Shaar HaKavanot<\/em> 100a, which says in the name of the Arizal that one should especially try to buy the kibbud<\/em> of holding the first sefer Torah<\/em> during Kol Nidrei<\/em>, as it is a special tikkun<\/em> for the sin of spilling seed. See also Chazon Ovadia<\/em>, Yamim Nora\u2019im<\/em>, p. 265. Ohr LeTzion<\/em>, vol. 4, 16:4 stresses that even though buying the kibbud<\/em> is certainly praiseworthy, one should realize that it is only a tikkun<\/em>, and if one has money to spend for merely a tikkun<\/em>, then he should also use his money for actual mitzvot, which are certainly more important.<\/p>\n

                          [4]<\/a> See Kadosh BeTzion<\/em>, p. 197.<\/p>\n

                          [6]<\/a> Moed LeChol Chai<\/em> 19:14; Kaf HaChayim <\/em>619:14.<\/p>\n

                          [7]<\/a> See Kadosh BeTzion<\/em>, p. 201 who brings several segulot<\/em> that are stated about holding the sefer Torah <\/em>of Kol Nidrei<\/em>, including forgiveness for the sins of zera levatalah<\/em>, and not keeping one\u2019s nedarim<\/em> and shavuot<\/em>. It is also a segulah<\/em> to be granted to understand the Torah properly.<\/p>\n

                          [8]<\/a> See Kadosh BeTzion<\/em>, p. 227.<\/p>\n

                          [9]<\/a> This is in order to satisfy the opinion of the Ramban<\/em> who says that one must recite vidduy right before Yom Kippur begins. See also Melechet Shlomo, Amar<\/em>, p. 232.<\/p>\n

                          [10]<\/a> Mishnah Berurah<\/em> 619:2.<\/p>\n

                          [11]<\/a>. Moed LeChol Chai <\/em>19:15 states that everyone should recite his own berachah<\/em>. However, Ben Ish Chai<\/em>, Vayelech<\/em> 1:11 and Kaf HaChayim<\/em> 619:21 state that either the chazzan or the one holding the sefer Torah<\/em> should recite the Shehecheyanu<\/em> for the congregation. However, it seems that this ruling depends on whether the one reciting the Shehecheyanu<\/em> understands that he must have the congregation in mind; if it appears that he does not, then one should recite his own berachah<\/em>. See also Chazon Ovadia<\/em>, Yamim Nora\u2019im<\/em>, p. 266; Torat HaMoadim<\/em>, Yamim Nora\u2019im<\/em>, p. 283; Yalkut Yosef<\/em>, Yamim Nora\u2019im<\/em>, p. 782; and Ohr LeTzion<\/em>, vol. 4, 16:3. Similarly, one who cannot hear the chazzan may recite the berachah<\/em> on his own.<\/p>\n

See also Halachah Berurah<\/em>, vol. 15, p. 152 who states that originally the custom of Chacham Ovadia Yosef was to recite Mizmor LeDavid, Lecha Dodi, Mizmor shir leyom haShabbat, Hashem Malach <\/em>and only afterward recite Lecha E-li teshukati<\/em>. However, at the end of his life he would only recite Mizmor shir leyom HaShabbat<\/em> and Hashem Malach<\/em>. See also Kadosh BeTzion<\/em>, p. 182.<\/p>\n

                          [14]<\/a>. See Chazon Ovadia<\/em>, Yamim Nora\u2019im<\/em>, p. 269; Halichot Olam<\/em>, vol. 2, p. 261; and Yechaveh Daat<\/em> 5:45, which is unlike Ben Ish Chai<\/em>, Vayelech<\/em> 1:11 & Pekudei<\/em> 1:1 and Kaf HaChayim<\/em> 619:24.<\/p>\n

See also Kaf HaChayim<\/em> 619:35, which states that only the chazzan recites it out loud; however, Moed LeChol Chai <\/em>19:18 implies that everyone may recite it out loud. See also Chazon Ovadia<\/em>, Yamim Nora\u2019im<\/em>, p. 270, in the footnotes, which adds that even women may recite baruch Shem<\/em> out loud. Furthermore, when doing so, one should pause between the words baruch<\/em> and Shem<\/em>. See also Yalkut Yosef<\/em>, Yamim Nora\u2019im<\/em>, pages 785-787.<\/p>\n

See Chazon Ovadia<\/em>, Yamim Nora\u2019im<\/em>, p. 349, which explains that one who is not fasting may receive an aliyah<\/em> to the Torah since the portion of keriat haTorah<\/em> for Yom Kippur is for the honor of the day and not for the fast itself, unlike other fast days. Furthermore, since most sick people are eating less than the amount of Halachic \u201ceating,\u201d and they are observing all the other prohibitions of Yom Kippur, they are considered as if they are fasting in this regard. See also Ohr LeTzion<\/em>, vol. 4, 17:1, which says that someone who is not fasting should not receive an aliyah<\/em> to the Torah during Minchah<\/em> unless Yom Kippur is on Shabbat.<\/p>\n

Yalkut Yosef<\/em>, Yamim Nora\u2019im<\/em>, pp. 873\u2013874, in footnote 2 states that if one realizes in the middle of praying that he said haMelech haKadosh<\/em> or haMelech haMishpat<\/em> (not within toch kedei dibbur<\/em>), he should still finish the Amidah<\/em>, and pray again with a stipulation that it is a tefillah nedavah<\/em>.<\/p>\n

See also Chazon Ovadia<\/em>, Yamim Nora\u2019im<\/em>, p. 378 and on, which discusses this topic at length. Chazon Ovadia<\/em> also states that one may not recite the berachah<\/em> on fire on an electric light, even if it was lit the whole Yom Kippur.<\/p>\n

                          [55]<\/a>. Chazon Ovadia<\/em>, Yamim Nora\u2019im<\/em>, p. 383. This is unlike the view of Ohr LeTzion<\/em>, vol. 4, 20:4, which says that one may not recite the berachah<\/em> on a fire that was only lit on motzaei<\/em> Shabbat<\/em>.<\/p>\n

                          [57]<\/a>. See Rama<\/em> 602:1, 426:2, which states that the custom is to recite Birkat HaLevanah<\/em> after Yom Kippur. See also Moed LeChol Chai <\/em>15:50 and Moreh BaEtzba<\/em> \u00a7283. However, Elya Rabba<\/em> 602:7; Maaseh Rav<\/em> \u00a7155; Sdei Chemed<\/em>, Yom Kippur<\/em> 1:1; and Shalmei Moed<\/em>, p. 85 state that one should recite Birkat HaLevanah<\/em> before Yom Kippur since the merit of reciting Birkat HaLevanah<\/em> should help one in the judgment of Yom Kippur. This is also the view of Ohr LeTzion<\/em>, vol. 4, 6:10, which adds that by reciting Birkat HaLevanah<\/em> before Yom Kippur, one will be able to recite it when he is not fasting and is wearing leather shoes. Furthermore, one will not keep his family waiting after the fast without eating. See also Chazon Ovadia<\/em>, Yamim Nora\u2019im<\/em>, p. 394 and Torat HaMoadim<\/em>, Yamim Nora\u2019im<\/em>, p. 340, which cite Kovetz Kol Sinai<\/em>, which states that each congregation should follow its custom. See also Yalkut Yosef<\/em>, Yamim Nora\u2019im<\/em>, p. 884.<\/p>\n

                          One who will be reciting Birkat HaLevanah<\/em> on motzaei<\/em> Yom Kippur<\/em> does not have to eat before reciting it. However, one who is able to eat first and still recite Birkat HaLevanah<\/em> with the rest of the congregation should do so, as that will help him concentrate better on the berachah<\/em>.
