Mishna Brurah 54:4 agrees. The Maharshal is quoted (Dagul Mervava Orach Chaim 54:3) as arguing that the issue of interrupting is only regarding pointless matters, not praises of Hashem like Tehillim, which may be recited even in middle of Birkot Keriat Shema. Emek Bracha pg 7 (Birkat Pesukei deZimra) notes how the Rambam (Hilchot Tefillah 7:13) records the custom of some communities to recite Az Yashir ''after'' Yishtabach and doesn't protest. Az Yashir, writes Rav Pameranchik, isn't a hefsek, because it's just a praise of Hashem. Shir HaMaalot Mimaamakim is not, however, so he leaves the issue unresolved.

{{Getting Married during Elul}}
#Although some poskim mention not to get married during the aseret yimei teshuva because it is a time for teshuva and a time of judgment<ref>Mateh Ephraim 602:5, Kitzur Shulchan Aruch 130:4 </ref>, most poskim do not accept that. Thus, if one wants to get married he should be encouraged to do so, especially if he is past the age of 20 years old.<ref>Sh"t Yechave Daat 1:48, Sh"t Melamed Lihoil EH 1, Sh"t Rav Azriel Hildesheimer OC 157b. see also [http://www.yutorah.org/lectures/lecture.cfm/754143/Rabbi_Aryeh_Lebowitz/Ten_Minute_Halacha_-_Scheduling_a_Wedding_Date Ten Minute Halacha Scheduling a Wedding Date] toward the end by Rabbi Aryeh Lebowitz where he agrees </ref>

#The Shabbat during Aseret Yimei Teshuva is referred to as Shabbat Shuva, based on the opening words of the Haftara (Hoshea 14:2), Shuva Yisrael... One should not call up a child under Bar Mitzva to read the Maftir and Haftara for this week.<ref>Kitzur Shulchan Aruch 79:9 and 130:5</ref>

#The minhag is for the Rabbi of the community to give a Drasha on [[Shabbat]] Shuva about Hilchot [[Yom Kippur]] and [[Sukkot]] as well as inspiration for [[Teshuva]].<ref>Mishna Brurah 429:2 </ref>

# It is forbidden to fast on Shabbat Shuva.<ref>Rosh (Rosh Hashana 4:14) cites a dispute between Rav Neturay Goan and Rav Hai Goan whether it is permitted to fast on Shabbat Shuva. Rav Hai Goan (Teshuvat Geonim Shaarei Teshuva 64) held it is forbidden since we can't fast on Shabbat and even Tisha B'av that falls out on Shabbat is delayed until Sunday. The Rosh accepts Rav Hai Goan and adds that the Maharitz Geyitz agreed. Avudraham (Seder Tefilat Rosh Hashana s.v. veharamban) concurs. Tur and Shulchan Aruch O.C. 597:1 rule like Rav Hai Goan. Knesset Hagedola 597:3, Bigdei Yesha 597:1, Mishna Brurah 597:2, Kaf Hachayim on Shulchan Arukh, Orach Chayim 597:9, and Aruch Hashulchan 581:9 agree. See Rama 581:2 and how the Aruch Hashulchan explains it.</ref>
