For the Ilui Neshama of Avraham ben Ester ZT’L. Lehavdeel
For the Refua Shlema of Chai Yaakov ben Margalit shlit’a.
Translated from Mekor Chaim Kitzur Shulchan Aruch:
1. One who is in the middle of Shmoneh Esreh needs to put
enough focus to have the intention of the words that is coming out of his/her
mouth in all Berachot (blessings). One needs to do this for all the berachot,
but if he/she have not, they must have the proper kavanah during the first Beracha of “Magen Avraham.” Today we do
not start the Shmoneh Esreh from the beginning if we did not have kavanah during this first Beracha but in
previous years they did. The reason that the Rabbanim were so strict with this
Beracha is because it holds such great characteristics of the way Hashem makes
the world work.
2. One should not say the Berachot and the entire Tefillah
(prayer) in their hearts only (meaning without saying it out loud). Rather, one
should say the entire Tefillah out loud in a whisper. If one cannot focus
properly to have the kavanah needed
for Tefillah, they can raise their voice. However, if they are in a public
setting they are forbidden to raise their voice because it might come to
distract/bother the other prayers.
