# Our practice is not to wear [[Tefillin]] at [[Mincha]]. <ref>Mishna Brurah 131:7, cf Biur Halacha 37 s.v. BeShaat</ref> Some pious individuals wear [[Rabbenu Tam Tefillin]] or [[Shimusha Rabba Tefillin]] at Mincha. See their page for more information.

==Shabbat and Yom Tov==
# [[Tefillin]] are not worn on [[Shabbat]] and the major [[holidays]] including [[Pesach]], [[Shavuot]], [[Rosh Hashana]], [[Yom Kippur]] and [[Sukkot]]. The reason given are, that these [[holidays]] are themselves "signs" which render the use of [[Tefillin]], which are to serve as "signs" themselves, superfluous. <ref> Shulchan Aruch 31:1, Mishna Brurah 31:1, Kitzur Shulchan Aruch of Rav Rephael Baruch Toledano, siman 10, laws of tefillin on shabbat and yom tov, seif 1 </ref>
# [[Tefillin]] are not worn on [[Shabbat]] and the major [[holidays]] including [[Pesach]], [[Shavuot]], [[Rosh Hashana]], [[Yom Kippur]] and [[Sukkot]]. Yom Tov Sheni are equally excluded.<ref>Mishna Brurah 31:1</ref> The reason given is that these [[holidays]] are themselves "signs" which render the use of [[Tefillin]], which are to serve as "signs" themselves, superfluous. <ref> Gemara Menachot 36b, Shulchan Aruch O.C. 31:1, Mishna Brurah 31:1, Kitzur Shulchan Aruch of Rav Rephael Baruch Toledano, siman 10, laws of tefillin on shabbat and yom tov, seif 1. The Piskei Rid 36b explains that Yom Tov is compared to Shabbat and Shabbat is considered a sign. Mishna Brurah 31:3 explains slightly differently. He says that Pesach the year when they left Egypt is called a sign and all the holidays are compared to it.</ref>

# The [[Tefillin]] are removed before we recite [[Mussaf]] on [[Rosh Chodesh]]. <ref> Shulchan Aruch 25:13, Shulchan Aruch 423:4, Mishna Brurah 25:59, Kitzur Shulchan Aruch 10:19, Rivevot Ephraim 7:317, Kaf Hachayim 25:94, Mishna Brura 25:59.

* Beit Yosef 25 s.v. "ubayom" writes that since in [[Kedusha]] we recite that the angels should give Hashem a crown it would be improper for us to show our crowns, the [[Tefillin]]. This is quoted in Mishna Brurah 25:61, Magen Avraham 25:32, Taz 25:16, Pri Megadim Mishbetzot Zahav 25:15 as well as Shulchan Aruch Harav 25:41. Levush 25:13 writes that even those whose Nusach does not say "Keter" and instead is "Naaritzcha", should remove their [[Tefillin]] for [[Mussaf]].

* Levush 25:13 and Mishna Brura 423:10 write that the reason [[Tefillin]] are removed before [[Mussaf]] is in order to add a [[Yom Tov]] flavor to the day (that the [[Mussaf]] itself is considered an "אות". As [[Mussaf]] represents the [[Yom Tov]] nature of [[Rosh Chodesh]] the [[Tefillin]] are removed at that time.

[[Mussaf]] represents the [[Yom Tov]] nature of [[Rosh Chodesh]], since both on Rosh Chodesh and Yom Tov, korbanot Mussaf were brought, the [[Tefillin]] are removed.

# There are several different opinions as to the exact proper time to remove one's [[Tefillin]] before [[Mussaf]].

* Mishna Brurah 28:8 writes that leaving the [[Tefillin]] exposed and unwrapped for the duration of [[Mussaf]] is unbecoming the reverence owed to them. In fact, according to halacha, whenever one removes [[Tefillin]] one is to wrap and put away the shel rosh before even removing the shel yad! There does not seem to be any good reason why this halacha should be ignored on [[Rosh Chodesh]].

# In the morning, one should wear one's [[Tefillin]] during the Megilla reading even if one has already worn them. <ref> Mishna Brurah 693:6, Magen Avraham 693:2, Baer Heitev 693:3. This is based on the gemara in Megilla 16b which says that the word "viykar" in Esther 8:16 relates to the [[Tefillin]] that after the death of Haman the Jews continued to put on [[Tefillin]]. Moed Likol Chai 31:88 says that one the word "viykar" is read one should kiss one's [[Tefillin]]. </ref>
