==Personal Requests==
# One should refrain from making any personal requests in [[davening]] on [[Shabbat]] unless it is part of the established texts (such as the HaRachaman's in [[benching]]). <ref>Mishna Brurah 188:9 </ref>
# One should refrain from making any personal requests in [[davening]] on [[Shabbat]] because that is a violation of having Oneg Shabbat and removing all of one's anxieties on Shabbat.<ref>The Yerushalmi Shabbat 15:3 78b writes that it is forbidden to ask for requests on Shabbat. The Korban Haedah explains that it is because as part of Oneg Shabbat a person should consider that all of his needs are taken care of and making requests shows that isn't the case and it indeed furthers his anxiety. Midrash Vayikra Rabba 34:16 indicates the prohibition of not asking for needs on Shabbat is based on the halacha of Memso Chefsacha, not speaking about one's business on Shabbat. The Yerushalmi is cited by the Ran Shabbat 42b s.v. vedaber and Rosh Brachot 7:22. Shulchan Aruch 188:4 cites a ramification of the Yerushalmi as halacha.</ref>
# If the request is part of the established texts such as the HaRachaman's in [[benching]] it is permitted to recite them on Shabbat. <ref>Yerushalmi Shabbat 15:3 clarifies that reciting the text of Rachem in Birkat Hamazon as one does during the week is permitted since that is the established text of the bracha. This is codified by the Rosh Brachot 7:22 and Shulchan Aruch 188:4. The Mishna Brurah 188:9 extends this to reciting the Harachaman's after Birkat Hamazon.</ref>
# Some say it is permitted to ask for spiritual needs on Shabbat. <ref>Ohel Moed Shabbat 1:4 writes that even though it is forbidden to make requests on Shabbat that is only for matters of business or the like but not for spiritual needs such as Teshuva.</ref>
# Some suggest that this doesn't apply to Yom Tov. <ref>Magen Avraham 128:70</ref>
