Today is: Tuesday, Tishrei 22, 5766
Shemini Atzeret

======================
Today's Laws & Customs
======================

• Hakafot

It is the practice of many communities -- and such is the Chabad custom -- to conduct "hakafot" and dance with the Torah scrolls also on the night preceding Shemini Atzeret. (See entry for tomorrow, "Simchat Torah".)

• Rain Prayer

In today's musaf prayer we begin to insert the phrase mashiv haruach umorid hageshem ("who makes the wind blow and brings down the rain") in our daily prayers (as we'll continue to do through the winter, until the 1st day of Passover). Special hymns on rain and water are added to musaf in honor of the occasion.

• Yizkor

Yizkor, the remembrance prayer for departed parents, is recited today after the morning reading of the Torah.
