Even if they pray one <em>Amida<\/em> daily, they still fulfill their obligation, and it is best if the one prayer is <em>Sha\u0125arit<\/em>. In extenuating circumstances, they may rely on those who maintain that women fulfill their obligation with <em>Birkhot Ha-sha\u0125ar<\/em> and <em>Birkhot Ha-Torah<\/em>. Women who are busy raising children may rely on this opinion <em>le-khat\u0125ila<\/em>. However, it is proper that even those women who act leniently on weekdays by only saying <em>Birkhot Ha-sha\u0125ar<\/em> and <em>Birkhot Ha-Torah<\/em> recite the <em>Amida<\/em> of <em>Sha\u0125arit<\/em> on Shabbat, because on Shabbat there is usually more free time. Many women even enhance the mitzva by walking to the synagogue to pray with the congregation on Friday night and Shabbat morning.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding Torah reading, we learned above (2:10) that according to <em>Magen Avraham<\/em> (283:6) women must hear Torah reading on Shabbat morning because women too \u00a0must hear the whole Torah over the course of the year. However, according to the vast majority of <em>poskim<\/em>, women are exempt from hearing Torah reading on Shabbat because it is a time-bound mitzva. <em>Halakha <\/em>follows this opinion. Still, it is preferable for women who wish to enhance the mitzva to hear Torah reading on Shabbat since all agree that although women are exempt, if one does hear it she indeed fulfills a mitzva for which she receives credit (see above, ch. 2 n. 13; whether or not women must hear <em>Parashat<\/em> <em>Zakhor<\/em> is addressed below, 23:5).<\/p>\n<p>Concerning <em>Musaf<\/em>, we learned (2:9) that some <em>poskim<\/em> maintain that women must pray <em>Musaf<\/em> (<em>Magen Giborim<\/em>) and some say they need not (<em>Tzela\u0125<\/em>). In practice, since it is a rabbinic mitzva, <em>halakha<\/em> follows the lenient opinion, and there is no obligation for women to pray <em>Musaf<\/em>, although those who do are credited for it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As we learned (above, 2:2-5), le-khat\u0125ila women should pray the Amida of Sha\u0125arit and Min\u0125a every day (including Shabbat, when they recite the Shabbat Amida).
