Question
In the common scenario where they are waiting for the tenth for a minyan, and all nine have already completed Pesukei Dezimra, and then the tenth arrives — the Mishnah Berurah in סימן נ"ג ס"ק י"א states, like the Derech Chaim, that three verses should be recited after there is a minyan, otherwise Kaddish cannot be said. This seems to contradict itself in סימן נ"ה end of ס"ק ב', where it states, like the Pri Megadim, that in Pesukei Dezimra even the Magen Avraham agrees with the Taz that no additional verses need to be recited. So what should be done in practice? Thank you in advance.
Answer
Shalom Rav
According to the instructions of our teacher, the Gaon, Rabbi A. Fried, shlita, verses should be recited before the Kaddish.
