Chacharite

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Shacharit or in Ashkenazi pronunciation Shachariss ( Hebrew שחרית) is the morning prayer in Judaism .

Orthodox Jews are required to pray three times a day . The times for the individual prayers are precisely set. The morning prayer (Shacharit) must be prayed in the morning directly after sunrise, but it can be prayed until noon. If you miss it, you can make up for it in parts at the Mincha prayer . Essential parts of this prayer are the Shema Yisrael and the Amida .

Liberal Jews say the Shacharit and other prayers only on the Sabbath and together, men and women. Some repetitions are shortened. Some things are sung.

Torah readings
