Question
If someone is holding 'Ga'al Yisrael' and is asked to approach as the Shaliach Tzibur for the repetition of the Amidah, can he approach and will it count for his silent prayer?
Answer
It is effective for the Shemoneh Esrei, but ideally, only someone who has already prayed the silent prayer should approach.
