Question
Hello,
I would like to know which verses should be recited during the Shacharit, Mincha, and Ma'ariv prayers related to Tisha B'Av and what is repeated during the Amidah prayer related to Tisha B'Av?
Answer
Hello and blessings
There are no special prayers for an individual on Tisha B'Av aside from the kinnos (lamentations) and the reading of Eicha (Lamentations). During the Mincha prayer, we add the recitation of "Rachem" in the blessing of "Boneh Yerushalayim" and we also include the recitation of "Anenu" in the blessing of "Shomea Tefilah."
The chazzan (cantor) adds the prayers "Anenu" as a separate blessing before the blessing "Rafa'einu" and also includes the recitation of "Nacham."
Best regards,
