The more common Mitzvah

  1. One of the major principles is Tadir VeSheino Tadir, Tadir Kodem, the more common the two mitzvot takes precedence. [1]
  2. Examples of this principle can be found in Kitzur S"A 10:2 regarding putting on Talit before Tefillin, Kitzur S"A 76:12 regarding saying Mincha before Mussaf, and Kitzur S"A 139:14 regarding the Torah reading for Chanuka and Rosh Chodesh.
