Question
If someone made a mistake on the night of the 7th of Cheshvan and did not say 'Veten Tal U'Matar' and completed his prayer, what should he do?
Answer
Shalom Rav,
One who has completed the prayer must repeat the Shemoneh Esrei. If he did not repeat the prayer at night, he should repeat it during the day and pray the Shemoneh Esrei again after the morning prayer.
However, since there are opinions that one who made a mistake on the night of the 7th of Cheshvan does not need to repeat the prayer, it is advisable to stipulate that if he is not obligated, the prayer should be considered a voluntary offering.
