# Parshat Shekalim is to remember the mitzvah to donate half-shaklim in the time of the Bet HaMikdash. Parshat Zachor is to remember the mitzvah of detstroying Amalek in proximity to the story of purim. Parshat Parah is in commemoration of the parah adumah done before the inauguration of Mishkan and serves as a prayer to be purified by Hashem. Parshat HaChodesh is to sanctify the new moon of Nissan (which is the beginning of the year in some respects) even though isn’t the primary sanctification of the moon. <Ref>Mishna Brurah 685:1 </ref> | |||
# If one missed reading the פרשה of the week there’s no make up. <Ref>Mishna Brurah 685:2 </ref> | |||

===Parshat Zachor=== | |||
# Hearing Parshat Zachor is a biblical mitzvah. <ref>S”A 685:7 </ref> | |||
# The mitzvah is to express this commemoration verbally and so the reader and those listening should intent to fulfill the obligation. <ref>Mishna Brurah 685:14 </ref> | |||
# If one can’t make it to hear Parshat Zachor in a minyan one should read it with the Trup from a Sefer. <ref>Rama 685:7 </ref> | |||
# Some say that the word Zecher (with Segol) and some say Zaycher (with Tzeyreh) and so it’s proper to read it twice. <Ref>Mishna Brurah 685:18 </ref> Some say that one should read the entire פסוק twice <ref> Moadim UZmanim (vol 2, siman 167), Piskei Teshuvot 685:9 </ref> while others say it’s enough to read the words Zecher Amalek or Timcheh Et Zecher Amalek a second time. <Ref>Kesot HaShulchan 88:22 in the notes, Kitzur S”A 88:22, Piskei Teshuvot 685:9, Sh”t Igrot Moshe 8:20:32 (pg 67). Piskei Shemuot (pg 40) quotes Rav Shlomo Zalman as saying that either minhag is acceptable. Piskei Shemuot (39-40) quotes Rav Chaim Kanievsky as saying it’s enough to repeat a few words. </ref> | |||
# When reading the פרשה of Zachor in Ki Tetse during the year the minhag is to read it Zaycher (with Tzeyreh). <Ref>Piskei Teshuvot 685:9 </ref> | |||
# An Ashkenazi shouldn’t hear Parshat Zachor from a Sephardic Baal Koreh and a Sephardi shouldn’t hear the Parshat Zachor from an Ashkenazic Baal Koreh. <Ref>Piskei Teshuvot 695:10, Piskei Shemuot quoting Rav Shlomo Zalman and Rav Elyashiv </ref> and some say that this is only preferable but after the fact one has fulfilled one’s obligation. <ref> Rav Nassim Karlitz quoted in Piskei Shemuot (pg 41). Yalkut Yosef (Kriyat HaTorah pg 111) and Sh”t Yabea Omer 6:11 write that it’s proper for a Sephardi to hear it from a Sephardi. </ref> | |||
# Some say that one should hear the same dialect of Hebrew one speaks and the minhag is to be concerned for this. <Ref>Piskei Teshuvot 695:10. Piskei Shemuot (pg 41) quotes Rav Shlomo Zalman saying that it’s not kavod tzibbur to read parshat zachor several times in different dialects. </ref> | |||
# It’s important that one understands the general point and one fulfills one’s obligation even if one doesn’t understand every word. <Ref>Rav Elyashiv quoted in Piskei Shemuot (pg 34) </ref> | |||
# Some say that if one misses one word one has not fulfilled one’s obligation <ref>Piskei Teshuvot 695:10, Mikrei Kodesh Purim Siman 7 </ref> while others hold that as long as one heard the main point of destroying amalek one has fulfilled one’s obligation. <ref>Halichot Shlomo 18:2</ref> | |||
# Some say that the congregation should read along as the Baal Koreh reads Parshat Zachor, while others argue that one should listen quietly and such is the widespread minhag. <Ref>Sh”t Minchat Elazar 2:1 says that everyone should read it along with the Baal Koreh, while Sh”t Yechava Daat 3:53 and Sh”t Meishiv Dvar OC 47 hold that everyone should listen quietly. Piskei Teshuvot 695:7 writes that the minhag is like the second opinion. </ref> | |||
# If afterwards it’s found out that the Sefer Torah used for Parshat Zachor was pasul one doesn’t have to reread it. <ref>Halichot Shlomo (Moadim vol 2, 18:4) </ref> | |||
===Parshat Parah=== | |||
# Some say Parshat Parah is a biblical mitzvah and some it’s a rabbinic mitzvah. <ref>S”A 685:7, Mishna Brurah 685:14 </ref> | |||
