Neïlah (also: Neila (h), Ne'ila (h) ) is in Judaism the closing prayer of the community prayer order for Yom Kippur , the highest Jewish holiday of the year.

The Neïlah “is prayed aloud with great solemnity and power” with the Torah shrine open and ends with a long shofarton , which ends the feast day of reconciliation between Jews and God. Stand during the Neïlah prayer. The Awinu Malkenu of the Neïlah prayer is also recited on Shabbat .

Neïlah is the conclusion and climax of the common prayer on Yom Kippur. The Neïlah corresponds to the prayer that was said before the temple gates were closed in Jerusalem at the end of the day. The divine judgment written at Rosh Hashanah is sealed with the Neïlah.
