Selichos Day Two Onwards

Laws and Customs | June 27, 2025

From Monday onwards, Selichos is said before davening. We are not particular to recite it before dawn. However, it is appropriate to rise earlier for Selichos instead of postponing davening.

Brochos is said before Selichos, even before dawn (presuming that one slept at night). The Chazzan for Selichos wears a Tallis.

[The earliest time for Tallis is 5:53 on Mon, 5:52 on Tue, 5:51 on Wed, 5:49 on Thu, 5:48 on Fri, 5:45 on Sun, 5:43 on Erev Rosh Hashana. If Selichos begins after this time, the Chazzan dons his own Tallis with a Brocho. If Selichos begins before this time, the Chazzan puts on his Tallis without a Brocho. As soon as it is the time, he should touch the Tzitizis and recite a Brocho.]
