The Parochet is restored to its usual place on the Aron HaKodesh after midday, before Mincha.
Mincha is longer than usual; care should be taken to conclude before sunset (7:38pm).
Before Mincha, one puts on Tallit and Tefillin and recites the entire Shmah. This is followed by the selections omitted from the conclusion of Shacharit. [I.e. Shir Shel Yom, Ein Kelokeinu, Tehillim.] These should be recited with a Minyan, and Kaddish is said at the appropriate places.
Ideally, Kriat Hatorah should not begin prior to Mincha Gedolah (1:19pm). The Amidah may certainly not begin before then.
The passage of Vayechal is read, provided that at least three congregants are fasting.
One who is not fasting (or who anticipates that he won’t be able to finish the fast) must still hear Kriat Hatorah of Vayechal, but is not called up for an Aliya. [If he is the only Kohen or Levi, he should absent himself.] If he is called up, and refusing the Aliya will cause him embarrassment and minimize the honor of the Torah, he may accept the Aliya. He should not serve as the Chazzan or the Ba’al Koreh, unless there is no one else to do so.
When the congregation recites the verses aloud, the Ba’al Koreh waits for silence before resuming. The one receiving the Aliya begins reciting these verses with the congregation but concludes with the Ba’al Koreh.
After Haftorah, most communities return the Torah to the Aron Kodesh and then say Kaddish. The Chabad custom is that the Chazzan slowly recites Kaddish while the Torah is returned to the Aron Kodesh, similar to Mincha on Shabbat.
If an individual forgot to recite Nacheim in the correct place, he may recite it in Sh’ma Koleinu after Aneinu; in Retzei before V’techezena; or in Modim before V’al Kulam. [In any of these cases, he recites the conclusion of the Brachah as usual, and does not add the words Menachem Tziyon Uvoneh Yerushalayim.] If one didn’t remember until he concluded the Amidah, he does not repeat it.
If an individual forgot to recite Aneinu in Sh’ma Koleinu, he may recite it in the passage of Elokai N’tzor, before the second Yih’yu L’ratzon. If one didn’t remember even then, he does not repeat the Amidah.
An individual who is not fasting omits Aneinu but still recites Nacheim.
The Chazzan recites Aneinu between Goal Yisrael and R’faeinu, Nacheim in Bonei Yerushalayim, and also recites Birchat Kohanim toward the end of the Amidah.
Tachnun and Avinu Malkeinu are not said.
