Question
Shemoneh Esrei - Is there a source for returning forward after saying 'Oseh Shalom' by jumping three times? Thank you very much.
Answer
Shalom Rav,
There is a source for returning to one's place.
However, there is no source for jumping afterward...
Source
Mishnah Berurah, Siman 123, S"K 8
There is an opinion that six steps are required, that is, three backward and three when returning to one's place, therefore one must return to their place with three steps forward.
