KOL HASHONEH HALACHOT KOL YOM MUVTACH LO SHE'HOO BEN HAOLAM HABA


L’yilui Nishamt Avraham ben Ester & Israel Ben Rivka.
From Ve’En Lamo Michshol-REPEATED BUT NECESSARY DUE TO THE PRESSING MATTER OF SELICHOT, WHICH BEGIN WEDNESDAY NIGHT:
1. Our minhag (custom) is to wake up early in the morning to say Selichot (Jewish Prayers during the month of Elul) from the first night after Rosh Chodesh Elul (WHICH BEGINS WEDNESDAY NIGHT: SEP. 1st) until the night before Yom Kippur. The reason behind this is from the story of Har Sinai that was passed down explaining that Moshe Rabbenu went up to Har Sinai to receive the Luchot HaBrit and came down with them on Yom Kippur. On Yom Kippur Hashem forgave Am Yisrael and it became a day of Simcha.

2. The time for Selichot is from Chatzot HaLayla and on, meaning the Jewish Midnight (today is 12:57am) and on because this is the time in Shamayim of Et Ratzon Tefillot are more accepted). One who is in Beit Knesset and the Tzibbur is doing Selichot before Chatzot HaLayla, is not allowed to join this Tzibbur to do Selichot!
