קריאת שמע שעל המיטה

Reciting the Shema is the declaration of the deepest faith in Judaism - a declaration of the unity of God and acceptance of the yoke of the Kingdom of Heaven. Before sleep, in a moment of silence and contemplation, we entrust ourselves to the loving hands of the Creator and express our faith and trust in Him.

This is a prayer that is one of the pillars of Judaism, words that have accompanied us since the time of Mount Sinai, since the receiving of the Torah: "Hear Israel, God, our God is one" - an eternal declaration of the Jewish people, a symbol of faith and devotion.

Whether we observe mitzvot or not, whether we are religious, secular or ultra-Orthodox - reading the Shema is a moment of connection. A connection to our essence, to our origins, to the tradition that passes from generation to generation. One moment before sleep, when we rise above our everyday life and remember who we really are
The Kabbalists, led by the Holy Ari, attached great importance to saying the Shema prayer on the bed. In the book "Fruit of the Tree of Life" the chapter on the Shema prayer on the bed, it is stated that sleep is a time when the soul ascends to higher places, and saying the Shema prayer helps in spiritual protection and guarantees that the soul will return to purity
