Question

Tonight, I want to rest a bit before Selichot at midnight. Let's say I sleep for two hours between 10 PM and midnight (just an example). Do I need to recite the blessing on the Torah or any other morning blessings before Selichot? (I hope to go back to sleep after Selichot)

Answer

Shalom uvracha 

Since you are sleeping in a bed as one typically does at night, you are required to recite the blessing on the Torah. 

And even if you sleep again later, you are not required to recite the blessing again in the morning. 

Recite the other morning blessings when you get up in the morning.
