Question
I am traveling by bus to the Shacharit prayer and cannot put on tefillin before the trip. When I arrive at the synagogue and put on tefillin, I will have limited time to say Pesukei Dezimra calmly (or I will need to skip to pray with the minyan). The question is whether I can say part of Pesukei Dezimra before Baruch She'amar, and when I arrive at the synagogue, put on tefillin and say Baruch She'amar, skipping the chapters I already said on the way before saying Baruch She'amar.
Answer
Shalom Rav,
If it is not possible to arrive before the prayer, you may skip some of the psalms.
Provided that after Baruch She'amar you say at least 'Ashrei'. And then Yishtabach.
