# The earliest time that one can put on Talit is MeSheYakir, which is one hour (in Shaot Zmaniot) before Olot HaShachar. <Ref>S”A 18:3 rules that the time to make the Bracha on talit is from MeSheYakir. There is a dispute among the achronim when is MeSheYakir. Because of Safek Brachot LeHakel, Halacha Brurah 18:6 one can’t make the Bracha earlier than a fifth of an hour (in Shaot Zmaniot) after Olot HaShachar. </ref> | # The earliest time that one can put on Talit is MeSheYakir, which is one hour (in Shaot Zmaniot) before Olot HaShachar. <Ref>S”A 18:3 rules that the time to make the Bracha on talit is from MeSheYakir.

# It’s preferable to pray Mincha before ten and three quarter hours. <Ref>Kaf HaChaim 233:3. BeYitzchak Yikra on Mishna Brurah 233:1 writes that according to the Rambam one shouldn’t pray mincha after ten and three quarter hours except in extenuating circumstances. Furthermore, he writes that it’s preferable to pray before ten and three quarter hours rather than pray with a minyan, however, the minhag is not like this. </ref> | # It’s preferable to pray Mincha before ten and three quarter hours. <Ref>Kaf HaChaim 233:3.

# | # <div id="Timeforarvit"></div> According to Rabbi Yehuda one must pray Mincha prior to ten and three quarter hours and the earliest time to pray Arvit/Mariv is ten and three quarter hours. According to Rabbanan mincha may be said until nighttime and the earliest time to pray Arvit/Mariv is nighttime. <Ref> The Mishna (Brachot 26a) writes that according to Rabbi Yehuda one must pray Mincha prior to ten and three quarter hours while according to Rabbanan mincha may be said until nighttime. Tosfot 27a (D”H Tah Shma) writes that according to Rabbi Yehuda the earliest time to say Mariv is ten and three quarter hours while according to Rabbanan the earliest time is nighttime. [This is also evident in the Gemara there (27a-b) and the upcoming Rishonim. The Maharsha (27a D”H Tah Shma) asks why Tosfot needed to prove something which was so obvious from the Gemara.] </ref> The halacha allows one to follow either opinion, however, one must be consistent and always follow Rabbi Yehuda or always follow Rabbanan. <Ref>The Gemara (27a) writes that since there’s no explicit ruling as to whom the halacha follows one who follows Rabbi Yehuda has done properly and one who follows Rabbanan has done properly. The Rabbenu Yonah (Brachot 18b D”H DeAved) writes that whichever opinion one follows one must be consistent and always follow the same opinion. This is also quoted by the Rosh (Brachot 4:3) in the name of a Goan. Additionally, the Kesef Mishna (Tefillah 3:4) says that this is implicit in the Rambam and furthermore that it’s the simple explanation of the words of the Gemara. This is also the ruling of Tur and S”A 233:1. </ref> | ||
# If one always follows Rabbanan (praying Mincha until night and Arvit afterwards), and one night one prayed Arvit before night, one fulfills one’s obligation after the fact. <Ref>The Rabbenu Yonah (18b D”H DeAved) writes that one should always follow Rabbanan (which the minhag of his time and place) but nonetheless, after the fact if one prayed Arvit after Plag Mincha one fulfills one’s obligation after the fact. This is quoted in Bet Yosef 233:1 and codified in S”A 233:1. </ref> | # If one always follows Rabbanan (praying Mincha until night and Arvit afterwards), and one night one prayed Arvit before night, one fulfills one’s obligation after the fact. <Ref>The Rabbenu Yonah (18b D”H DeAved) writes that one should always follow Rabbanan (which the minhag of his time and place) but nonetheless, after the fact if one prayed Arvit after Plag Mincha one fulfills one’s obligation after the fact.

# If one always follows Rabbanan (praying Mincha until night and Arvit afterwards), in extenuating circumstances one pray Mincha before ten and three quarter hours and Arvit after that time. However, even in extenuating circumstances an individual is not permitted to pray both Mincha and Arvit between ten and three quarter hours and nighttime. <Ref>The Rabbenu Yonah (18b D”H DeAved) writes that one should always follow Rabbanan (which the minhag of his time and place) but nonetheless, after the fact if one prayed Arvit after Plag Mincha one fulfills one’s obligation after the fact. The S”A 233:1 rules that in extenuating circumstances one may pray Arvit before nighttime even though one always follows Rabbanan. Mishna Brurah 233:11 writes that this is only permissible if that day itself one already prayed Mincha prior to ten and three quarter hours. </ref> | # If one always follows Rabbanan (praying Mincha until night and Arvit afterwards), in extenuating circumstances one pray Mincha before ten and three quarter hours and Arvit after that time.
