The Daily Halacha Moment - Forgot to Recite Birchot HaShachar



״כל השונה הלכות בכל יום - מובטח לו שהוא בן העולם הבא״ (נידה עג ע״א, מגילה כח:)


“Anyone who studies Halachot every day is guaranteed that he is destined for the world-to-come” (Megilla 28b, Niddah 73a)


Question:

What should one do if one forgot to recite Birchot HaShachar?



Answer:

If one forgets to recite Birchot HaShachar and remembers during Pesukei DeZimrah, they should recite them between the paragraphs of Pesukei DeZimrah. [1] If one forgot to recite Birchot HaShachar and only remembers during the Brachot of Kriyat Shema, they should not interrupt to recite Birchot HaShachar. Instead, they should have the intention not to fulfill their obligation for Elokai Neshama with the beracha of Mechayeh HaMeytim and they can recite them afterward. [2]


If one forgot to recite Birchot HaShachar before davening, they may still recite all the Birchot HaShachar afterward, except for Elokai Neshama, which some say is fulfilled through the beracha of Mechayeh HaMaytim unless he had specific intention to not fulfill his obligation with Mechayeh HaMaytim. [3] Furthermore, If one forgot to say Birchot HaTorah and only remembered in Brachot Kriyat Shema one should not interrupt to say the Brachot but rather have intent to fulfill one’s obligation of Birchot HaTorah with Ahavat Olam and then learn a little right after davening.[4]
