Birchot HaTorah: Difference between revisions

# The night goes after the day with regards to Birchot HaTorah; therefore, one does not make new Birchot HaTorah when night begins. However, if one goes to sleep at night, one will need to make new Birchot HaTorah when one wakes up.<ref> Shulchan Aruch 47:12, Mishna Brurah S.K. 28 </ref>.

# If one woke up before [[Olot HaShachar]] (after [[Chatzot]]) and wants to learn, one should make Birchot HaTorah even if one will go to sleep afterwards. If one does go back to sleep Shinat Kevah during the night, there is what to rely on to make Birchot HaTorah a second time. <Ref> Mishna Brurah 47:29,30 </ref>

#Someone who wakes up early in the morning before dawn can make all the [[Brachot]] ([[Brachot HaShachar]] and Birchot HaTorah) except Hanoten LeSachvi Binah and Parshat HaTamid which should wait until Or hayom. The Birchot HaTorah then covers his brachot all day. <ref> Shulchan Aruch 47:13 </ref>

# If one did not sleep all night, such as on the night of [[Shavuot]], there is a dispute whether one should make Birchot HaTorah or not. According to Ashkenazim, one should try to hear the brachot from someone else, and then say some psukim afterwards. If one is unable to do that, one should have intent that one's bracha of Ahava Rabba should count for Birchot HaTorah, and then learn after [[tefillah]].<ref>Mishna Brurah 47:28, Rabbi Hershel Schachter (cited by Bet Yitzchak vol 30, p. 592). The side that says one should say it views Birchot HaTorah as similar to other Birchot Hashachar, which are said every morning, regardless of whether one slept or not. </ref>However, the Sephardic minhag is to say Birchot HaTorah by oneself.<ref>Chazon Ovadyah ([[Yom Tov]] p. 312)</ref>

# If one slept Shinat Kevah the day before staying up all night, one should make the Birchot HaTorah in the morning after one did not sleep. <Ref> Mishna Brurah 47:28 in name of Rabbi Akiva Eiger </ref>
