KOL HASHONEH HALACHOT BECHOL YOM MUVTACH LO SHEH'HOO BEN HA'OLAM HABA

1. Whoever forgot to add the Al HaNisim passage after Modim but before he/she said Hashem's name in the bracha following Al HaNisim, "Hatov Shimcha U'Lecha Naeh LeHodot," then he/she can go back to say Al HaNisim and continue regularly. However, if one said the bracha after Al HaNisim, then he/she cannot go back, rather at the end of the Amida he/she before the last Yehiyu LeRatzon says "Modim anachnu lefanecha Al HaNisim... until the end of the paragraph and continues straight where he/she left (at Yehiyu LeRatzon and Oseh Shalom). If one realizes he/she forgot while literally saying Baruch Atah Hashem, he/she may not end it with Lamdeni Chukecha (which is as if saying a pasuk from tehillim and not a bracha and therefore would think they can go back to say Al HaNisim). In this situation, he/she must say the rest of the bracha and say Al HaNisim like in the case where one forgot after he said Hashem's name as mentioned before.


2. After the Tefillah of Erev Purim, the Chazan should say Chatzi Kaddish (half) and not the usual full Kaddish Titkabal, which should be said only after the process of Kriyat HaMegillah is complete.
