The Daily Halacha Moment - Minchah Of Shabbat 📙
״כל השונה הלכות בכל יום - מובטח לו שהוא בן
העולם הבא״ (נידה עג ע״א, מגילה כח:)
“Anyone who studies Halachot every day is guaranteed that he is destined for the world-to-come” (Megilla 28b, Niddah 73a)
Question:
What are some customs of Minchah of Shabbat Kodesh?
Answer:
Even though during the week it is preferable to recite Minchah Ketanah and not pray earlier,[1] on Shabbat one may pray Minchah Gedolah if it is more convenient, such as in order to eat seudah shelishit earlier in the day.[2]
During Minchah, the paragraph of “Uvah LeTzion” is recited after Ashrei.[3]
One may not begin Minchah and recite Uvah LeTzion before the zman of Minchah.[4]
The custom of Sephardim is to recite the phrase “Va’ani Teffilati” twice when the heichal is being opened.[5] This should be recited while standing.[6]
Even when praying alone, or if there is no sefer Torah, “Va’ani Teffilati” should be recited.[7]
An Avel during the seven days of Avelut should skip the words “Va’ani zot beriti” and “Va’ani Teffilati.” However, the rest of the minyan should recite it as regular. [8]

[3]. Rama 292:1. The Mishnah Berurah 292:1 in the name of the Kol Bo explains that even though during the week the prayer of “Uvah LeTzion” is recited after Shacharit, since the Shabbat morning prayers are very lengthy, the Chachamim instituted this prayer in Minchah instead. See also in Yalkut Yosef, Shabbat, book 1, vol. 4, p. 694 who states that another reason for reciting Uvah LeTzion during Minchah is because usually on Shabbat the Rabbi would give a Torah class and in order to end off the class with mentioning the final redemption, Uvah LeTzion was recited immediately after the class.
