The Kaddish is to be recited only in the presence of a duly constituted quorum, a minyan, which consists of ten males above the age of Bar Mitzvah. |
The bar mitzvah reads his Torah or Haftorah passage in shul and can then be counted as a man for purposes of a minyan. |
While traveling, I was forced to have to pray on my own, and without a minyan. |
My rabbi has a hard time getting a minyan together on Saturdays. |
I am a heathen but will help make up a minyan if required, and said kaddish for my mother when she died. |
During the shiva, the rabbi visited or called every day and the daily minyan came to our home. |
