📖 סידור משנה תורה (נוסח על פי הרמב״ם) | Siddur Mishneh Torah (nusaḥ al pi haRaMBaM), by Yoel Fievel ben Avram
Contributed on: 25 May 2023 by
❧This siddur is based on the Mishneh Torah and rulings of the Rambam with the texts for the nusaḥ sourced from online Torah databases: Mechon Mamre and Sefaria. It has English instructions and was geared to a new practitioner and those studying the Mishneh Torah. It is a complete siddur for the whole year with every blessing brought by the Rambam. I began working on this siddur in November 2011. The latest revision published here is v. 240104. . . .
Alternative Haftarot for Those who Do Not Recite the Haftarot of Rebuke and Consolation

❧In all modern communities, the standard practice is that on the three Shabbatot before the Ninth of Av and the seven after it the standard haftarah is replaced. Before the Ninth of Av they are replaced with haftarot of rebuke, from Jeremiah and the opening of Isaiah, and after they are replaced with haftarot of consolation from the later parts of Isaiah. Rambam’s Mishneh Torah, though, preserves a very different custom, one where each one of those Torah portions has an associated haftarah, related not to the calendar but to the parashah itself. Here the editor has compiled a list of these haftarah readings, along with brief notes to explain their connection with the parashah. . . .
