Question
A young man who was at a wedding abroad on the eve of Rosh Chodesh prayed Maariv and said Yaaleh Veyavo. After finishing the prayer, he realized he hadn't prayed Mincha and the sun was still shining. Can he pray Mincha? And if so, can he say Yaaleh Veyavo?
Answer
Shalom and blessings,
It is not possible to pray Mincha after having already prayed Maariv.
When he prayed Maariv after Plag Hamincha, he considered that time as night, and it is no longer possible to treat it as day and pray Mincha.
