Question
Hello Rabbi, A person who prays in the Ashkenaz nusach and joins a Mincha minyan in the Sephardic nusach, where the 13 Attributes are recited in Tachanun. How should he conduct himself in Tachanun? I understand he should say the 13 Attributes, but should he say all parts of the Tachanun in the Sephardic nusach (starting with "Ana Hashem Elokeinu v'Elokei Avoteinu...") or can he say only the 13 Attributes with the congregation but recite the rest of the Tachanun in the Ashkenaz nusach ("Rachum v'Chanun chatati lefanecha...")?
Answer
Hello Rabbi
What is said aloud should be recited with the congregation. What is said privately can be recited according to the nusach he is accustomed to.
