# In the times of the gemara, in cases of great need such as (1) if one is traveling or in any other place where there is a fear that others will interrupt one's Shemona Esreh, or (2) if one is in a place where one can’t concentrate because of distractions or sickness, one should say an abridged Shemona Esreh of the first and last three Brachot of Shemona Esreh and an alternate text for the middle of Shemona Esreh called Havinenu | # In the times of the gemara, in cases of great need such as (1) if one is traveling or in any other place where there is a fear that others will interrupt one's Shemona Esreh, or (2) if one is in a place where one can’t concentrate because of distractions or sickness, one should say an abridged Shemona Esreh of the first and last three Brachot of Shemona Esreh and an alternate text for the middle of Shemona Esreh called Havinenu. <Ref> | ||
* The Mishna (Brachot 28b) quotes a dispute where Rabban Gamliel says that every day a person should say Shemona Esreh, Rabbi Yehoshua says that one can say an abridged Shemona Esreh, and Rabbi Akiva says that only one who is unfamiliar with the words of Shemona Esreh should say the abridged Shemona Esreh. The Gemara (29a) quotes a dispute as to the meaning of an abridged Shemona Esreh, Rav saying it means an abridgement of all 19 Brachot, and Shmuel saying it means Havinenu. Rashi (Brachot 29a D”H Havinenu) says that Shmuel means that one should say the first and last three Brachot as usual and the middle 13 Brachot are abridged to be one Bracha. | * The Mishna (Brachot 28b) quotes a dispute where Rabban Gamliel says that every day a person should say Shemona Esreh, Rabbi Yehoshua says that one can say an abridged Shemona Esreh, and Rabbi Akiva says that only one who is unfamiliar with the words of Shemona Esreh should say the abridged Shemona Esreh.

* Which tanna of the Mishna does the halacha follow? The Rambam (Pirush Mishnayot 4:3) writes that the halacha follows Rabbi Akiva. The Kesef Mishna (Tefillah 2:2) writes that we hold like Rabbi Akiva (because of the general rule that we hold like Rabbi Akiva over his college and even though we don’t hold like Rabbi Akiva when he argues on a number of his colleges here Rabban Gamliel and Rabbi Yehoshua disagree it’s like he is arguing over individual opinions). | * Which tanna of the Mishna does the halacha follow?
