Prayer in thought
I have a sore on my tongue that makes it really difficult to speak (for example, pronouncing L, D, G, etc.)
1: How much effort do you have to put in for prayer (even just eighteen is really hard)
2: If I am exempt, is there any point in praying mentally (literally going over the words of the prayer) or is it completely unnecessary?
(Many years ago I heard that there are those who pray like this, I have no idea who they are talking about)
If you can, you should pray. If the difficulty is great, only blessings, ks and shmu’a are allowed. What you do not say must definitely be said silently or in thought.
By ”hardship” I meant sharp pain. Do I need to overcome the pain and pray blessings to God and His name?
(Whispering does not relieve the pain)
Thank you very much.
Is sign language a legitimate language for this purpose?
The Gemara explains that the husband of Keri ponders without speaking. If this is a very great suffering, perhaps it should be alleviated as much as it is.
Regarding sign language, this is an interesting question/suggestion. At least regarding things said in any language, there is perhaps room to consider sign language as well.
The rabbi wrote: “If you can, you should pray. If the difficulty is great, you can only recite the blessings, K”sh and Shm”a.”
I didn't understand, after all, the blessings, K”sh and Shm”a, are enough for every person. After all, there is no need to recite any more passages from the siddur. Am I wrong?
Why? There are verses from Dzimra, Kiddusha Dzidra.
Sorry, I just remembered that I read in the past that you wrote that you only say the blessings of the Shema, Shema, and Amidah. I must have read that somewhere else. My mistake.
Anyway, just to know, from the main point of view: What must be prayed? Are the verses of Dzimra and Kedushah Dsidra obligatory? And what about the incense?
