For the Ilui Neshama of Avraham ben Ester ZT’L. Lehavdeel
For the Refua Shlema of Chai Yaakov ben Margalit shlit’a.
Translated from Yalkut Yosef Kitzur Shulchan Aruch:
1. It’s a pleasant and beautiful minhag (custom) that many communities of Israel during the days of
Sefirat HaOmer (now) between Mincha and
Arvit (afternoon and evening Prayer
Services) to read Pirkei Avot (Ethics of
the Fathers) which is filled with Mussar
(rebuke and criticism) to help shape up the Jewish figure and lifestyle. It is
found that the phrase Mitzvah Gorreret
Mitzvah fits here (a Mitzvah follows a Mitzvah, where it is best to wait until
the one teaching the Pirkei avot reaches Tzet
HaKochavim time to count the Omer at nightfall exactly). It fits to
additionally add the Torah learning up until the appropriate nightfall hour
where the one who strengthens the public has that zechut (privilege) standing for him.
2. It is the minhag
of Yerushalayim, which we should all follow, to count the day of the Omer in
Shul at the end of the Shacharit Tefillah (prayer) without a Beracha to remind
those who forgot to count during the night to count then in order to aid them
in the counting of the Omer and to allow them to say the Beracha during the
following night (where as if they would have forgotten they would not be
allowed to say the Beracha anymore).
