It is a rabbinic obligation to recite Keriat Shema<\/i> of Shacharit<\/i> with tefillin<\/i>, as written in the paragraph of Shema<\/i>, \u201cAnd you shall bind them as a sign on your arm and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes\u201d (Deuteronomy 6:8). Similarly, it is written in the paragraph of V\u2019hayah Im Shamo\u2019a<\/i>, \u201cBind them as a sign on your arm and let them be as frontlets between your eyes\u201d (Deuteronomy 11:18). Thus, it is not proper to read these verses without tefillin<\/i>. The Chachamim<\/i> teach, \u201cWhoever recites Keriat Shema<\/i> without tefillin<\/i>, it is as if he testifies falsely about himself\u201d (Berachot<\/i> 14b).<\/p>\n

In any case, even one who does not have tefillin<\/i> must recite Keriat Shema<\/i>, since tefillin<\/i> and Shema<\/i> are two separate mitzvot<\/i> that do not prevent one another from being fulfilled. If he does not have the privilege to perform the mitzvah of tefillin<\/i>, he must at least fulfill the mitzvah of Keriat Shema<\/i>, and he is not considered one who gives false testimony, since he is in circumstances beyond his control (Mishnah Berurah<\/i> 46:33).<\/p>\n

It is appropriate to pray the Amidah<\/i> of Shacharit<\/i> with tefillin<\/i> as well; that is part of the complete acceptance of the yoke of Heaven (Berachot<\/i> 14b).<\/p>\n

Regarding a person without tefillin<\/i>, whose friend can give him his pair to put on after he finishes praying, the Acharonim<\/i> are uncertain what is the best course to follow. Is it preferable for him to pray in a minyan<\/i> without tefillin<\/i> and then put on tefillin<\/i> afterwards? Or should he pray with tefillin<\/i> individually after the minyan<\/i>? The opinion of most poskim<\/i> is that in practice it is best to pray with tefillin<\/i> individually. However, one who wants to pray in a minyan<\/i> without tefillin<\/i> and then put on his tefillin<\/i> afterwards is permitted to do so.[10]<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n

Likewise, it is proper to put on one\u2019s tzitzit<\/i> before prayer because the third paragraph of Keriat Shema<\/i> discusses the mitzvah of tzitzit<\/i> and it is appropriate to recite it while actually fulfilling the mitzvah of tzitzit<\/i>. It is also customary to hold the tzitziyot<\/i> and kiss them a number of times while reciting Keriat Shema<\/i> (see further in this book 15:11). Even though the mitzvah of tzitzit<\/i> can be fulfilled by wearing a \u201ctallit katan<\/i>\u201d <\/i>(tzitzit<\/i>), it is also customary to put on a \u201ctallit gadol<\/i>\u201d (tallit<\/i>) in honor of the Shacharit<\/i> prayer. However, before marriage, most Ashkenazim<\/i> suffice with wearing a tallit katan<\/i>. Only after they marry do they begin to wear a tallit gadol<\/i> for Shacharit<\/i>.<\/p>\n

\n
\n
[10]<\/a>.\u00a0The Magen Avraham<\/i> 66:12 is uncertain concerning this, and tends to resolve the issue by ruling that it is best to pray with tefillin<\/i> individually. So write the majority of Acharonim<\/i>, including the Mishnah Berurah<\/i> 66:40 and Kaf HaChaim<\/i> 25:28. Still, there are those who disagree, and the Minchat Yitzchak<\/i>, part 2, 107 writes that one may rely on them. Yalkut Yosef<\/i>, part 1, p. 144 rules that if a person is unable to concentrate well, it is preferable that he pray in a minyan<\/i> without tefillin<\/i>. However, if he can have kavanah<\/i>, it is better that he wear his tefillin<\/i> while praying individually.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
