The Obligation of Prayer
Question
Is one obligated to pray 3 times every day? And what if I don’t have the strength?
Answer
Then push yourself.
Discussion on Answer
Yes.
It seems the Rabbi is perceived as an easygoing rabbi.
Maybe one can be lenient about Ma’ariv.

Honorable Rabbi Y.D.,
Who is an easygoing rabbi?
Easygoing about granting leniencies.
Is it an obligation?
