However, the Ateret Tzvi 25:6 argues that the Gemara's expression that Shema without Tefillin is like a Korban without a Mincha implies that one doesn't even fulfill the mitzvah of Shema.</ref> | ||
# If one doesn’t have [[Tallit]] and [[Tefillin]] and is going to miss the time for Kriyat Shema one should say Kriyat Shema with [[Brachot]] in time and then repeat it with [[Tallit]] and [[Tefillin]] without [[Brachot]]. The same is true even if one is unsure whether one will miss the time for Kriyat Shema. <ref> [[Brachot]] 14b says there that Rav said Shema and then put on [[Tallit]] and [[Tefillin]] because the person who was bringing his [[Tallit]] and [[Tefillin]] forgot to bring it by the time for Shema. This is also the opinion of Levush 58:2, Sharei Knesset Gedolah 58:9, Olot Tamid 58:1, Eliyah Raba 58:5, Mishna Brurah 58:5, and Kaf HaChaim 58:11. Mishna Brurah 58:5 and Halacha Brurah 58:5 rule that one should also say Shema without [[Tefillin]] if there’s a doubt one will miss the time. </ref> | # If one doesn’t have [[Tallit]] and [[Tefillin]] and is going to miss the time for Kriyat Shema one should say Kriyat Shema with [[Brachot]] in time and then repeat it with [[Tallit]] and [[Tefillin]] without [[Brachot]].

# It is permitted to say Kriyat Shema without wearing Tzitzit.<ref>Levush 25:1 explains that it is only like testifying false testimony when saying Shema without Tefillin since it is a personal obligation, but Tzitzit which is only an obligation if one is already wearing a four cornered garment but otherwise it is possible to avoid it isn't an issue to say Shema without Tzitzit.</ref> | # It is permitted to say Kriyat Shema without wearing Tzitzit.<ref>Levush 25:1 explains that it is only like testifying false testimony when saying Shema without Tefillin since it is a personal obligation, but Tzitzit which is only an obligation if one is already wearing a four cornered garment but otherwise it is possible to avoid it isn't an issue to say Shema without Tzitzit.</ref> | ||
