After midday (and before Mincha), the Paroches is restored to its usual place on the Aron HaKodesh.
Mincha is longer than usual (due to Krias Hatorah and Haftorah); it should be timed to conclude before sunset (5:43pm).
Before Mincha, one dons Tallis and Tefillin and recites the entire Sh’ma. This is followed by the selections omitted from the conclusion of Shacharis. [I.e. Shir Shel Yom, Ein Kelokeinu, Tehillim.] These should be recited with a Minyan, and Kaddish is said at the appropriate places.
Krias Hatorah should not begin prior to Mincha Gedolah (12:52pm). Shmoneh Esrei must certainly not begin before then.
The passage of Vayechal is read, provided that at least three congregants are fasting.
An individual who won’t be fasting must still hear Krias 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 declining the Aliya will pain him or minimize the honour of the Torah, he may accept the Aliya. He should not serve as the Chazzan or the Ba’al Koreh, unless no one else can. In any case, he may perform Hagbah or Gelilah.
When the congregation recites the verses aloud, the Ba’al Koreh waits for silence before resuming. The Oileh starts reciting these verses with the congregation but finishes with the Ba’al Koreh.
After Haftorah, the Chazzan slowly recites Kaddish while the Torah is returned to the Aron Hakodesh, similar to Mincha on Shabbos.
One who forgot Nacheim may recite it in Sh’ma Koleinu after Aneinu; in Retzei before V’sechezena; or in Modim before V’al Kulam. [In any of these cases, he recites the conclusion of the respective Brocho as usual, and does not add the words Menachem Tziyon Uvoneh Yerushalayim.] If one didn’t remember until he concluded Shmoneh Esrei, he does not repeat it.
One who forgot to include Aneinu in Sh’ma Koleinu may recite it in the passage of Elokai N’tzor, before the second Yih’yu L’ratzon. If he didn’t remember until he ended Shmoneh Esrei, he does not repeat it.
One who is not fasting omits Aneinu but still recites Nacheim.
The Chazzan recites Aneinu between Goel Yisroel and R’faeinu, Nacheim in Boinei Yerushalayim, and also recites Birchas Kohanim toward the end of Shmoneh Esrei. [See 17 Tammuz Guide regarding a Chazzan who forgot to recite Aneinu, or who is not fasting.]
Tachnun and Avinu Malkeinu are not said.
A Chiyuv recites the standard Mishnayos prior to the last Kaddish.
Rabbeinu Tam Tefillin is put on after Mincha, and one recites the usual selections.
One should make sure to put on Tefillin before sunset (5:43pm). If one davens with a Minyan which will conclude only after sunset, he should change into Rabbeinu Tam Tefillin before Mincha.
