Question
There is a custom to bless a sick person immediately after Ashrei before Kaddish while holding the Torah scroll, and I was told that it is an ancient tradition. I would like to know how this is done?
Answer
Shalom and blessings. Indeed, there is such a custom, but it is ruled in Halacha that it is a mistaken custom and should not be done, because one should not interrupt between Kaddish and Ashrei. By adhering to Halacha, there will be a complete recovery.
