Tachanun (Nefilat Apayim) When Praying Alone
Question
If someone is praying alone, does he recite the Tachanun psalm, and is there any difference between Ashkenazim and Sephardim?
Answer
Shalom u’vracha.
One recites the psalm, but without Nefilat Apayim (putting one’s head down).
There is no difference in this matter between the customs.
