Al Hanissim

  1. The passage of al hanissim and the addition special for chanuka are added to the Birkat HaMazon in the middle of birkat haaretz (between nodeh licha and vi'al hakol) and during the shemoneh esrei following the passage of modim for all eight days of chanuka. [1]
  2. Nothing is added into the beracha of meayn shalosh (al hamichya, al hagefen, or all haetz) for chanuka. [2]
  3. Al hanissim is recited even on the first night of chanuka, even if you haven't lit candles yet, as well as Mussaf of shabbat and Mussaf of rosh chodesh even though there is no Mussaf on chanuka. [3]
  4. One should not skip al hanissim in order that he be able to finish shemoneh esrei in time so that he can answer kaddish or kedusha. [4]

If you Forget

  1. If one forgot in either Birkat HaMazon or the shemoneh esrei and has reached the name of Hashem in the beracha then he shouldn't go back, but as long as he still has not begun the beracha that follows it, he should still go back. [5]
  2. If on Shabbat one forgot ritze and is therefore going to repeat birkat hamazon but also forgot al hanissim which normally doesn't require repeating birkat hamazon, some poskim say to now say al hanissim in the repetition [6] while others say to leave it out. [7]
  3. If he forgot in Birkat HaMazon then in the section of Harachamans he should add

הרחמן יעשה לנו נסיס ונפלאות כשס שענית לאבותינו בימיס ההס בזמן הזה and then recite the biymei matityahu particular for chanuka. [8] and if it is Rosh Chodesh Tevet, then the harachaman for rosh chodesh should be recited first. [9]

  1. If he forgot in the shemoneh esrei he can still recite it before the second yihyu liratzon at the end of the shemoneh esrei. [10]
  2. If one began repeating shemoneh esrei thinking that he has to repeat for forgetting al hanissim, and then realized that the halacha says otherwise, he should stop immediately and say "baruch shem kvod malchuto liolam vaed," except for arvit, because for Arvit he can finish and have it in mind to be a nidavah. [11]
  3. If one mistakenly recited al hanissim in the avoda beracha where Yaaleh VeYavo is usually recited he should recite it again after modim, but if he didn't realize until after that he shouldn't go back. [12]
  4. If one mistakenly said biymei mordechai viesther (the passage we recite for al hanissim on purim) instead of biymei matityahu he has still fulfilled his obligation. [13]

Text

  1. The correct language is vi'al hanissim, but if you do say just al hanissim it is ok also. [14]
  2. The proper text is "kisheamda malchut yavan harisha al amcha yisrael," and not kisheamda aleyhem. [15]
