Question
A mourner for his mother who has already prayed Mincha and enters a synagogue where Mincha is currently being prayed, is he required to say the Orphan's Kaddish again?
Answer
He does not need to say the Orphan's Kaddish again since he already recited Kaddish when he prayed, and one should not increase the number of Kaddishes unless he is in a place where they know he is in mourning but do not know he has already prayed Mincha. In such a case, he should say Kaddish again so that they do not think he is disrespecting his father's honor.
