Conversation Between Prayer and Tachanun

Question

Is it permissible to speak after the Amidah prayer before reciting Tachanun?
 

Answer

Shalom and blessings! It is not permitted to speak between the prayer and the falling on the face, because by doing so, the supplication is not as readily accepted. For this reason, one should also not study verbally between them, but it is allowed in thought.
